SEC Quarterback Most Polarizing Prospect for 2027 NFL Draft
South Carolina quarterback LaNorris Sellers could be a Day 1 or Day 3 quarterback depending on what NFL scout is evaluating.
LaNorris Sellers, South Carolina's quarterback, is a highly polarizing prospect for the 2027 NFL Draft. The team's performance, following a 4-8 season in 2025, will be crucial for head coach Shane Beamer, whose record has been inconsistent. Beamer's career with South Carolina includes a 33-30 overall record and a 16-24 SEC mark.
Sellers, rated as a three-star quarterback in 2023, saw his draft stock rise in 2024 after delivering a strong performance, throwing for 2,534 yards, 18 touchdowns, and seven interceptions while rushing for 674 yards and seven touchdowns. NFL teams are struggling to assess Sellers' potential for the 2027 draft, with some scouts considering him a first-round pick, while others believe he could fall as low as the fifth round.
Sellers' performance in 2025 was inconsistent, with a drop-off in rushing yards and touchdowns. Despite his mixed performance, scouts agree that Sellers has untapped potential and a strong frame for success at the next level.
