Carson Beck's Sister Posts Loving Message Before Round 1 of NFL Draft
Carson Beck isn't viewed by most NFL fans as a first round quarterback, but the former Miami Hurricanes star could surprise on Night 1.
NFL insider Tom Pelissero believes that Beck could go in the first round on Thursday evening. He could be the third quarterback taken, behind Indiana's Fernando Mendoza and Alabama's Ty Simpson.
"Quarterback-wise, the one guy I keep coming back to," Pelissero said. "This may not be in round one but I can't 100% rule it out. The quarterback who is going to go higher than every projection has had him in this process, I believe, is Carson Beck… There's enough team that have a quarterback need… I believe he goes in the second round of this draft… I would not 100% rule out the idea of Carson Beck, somehow, finding his way into the back of round one."
Ahead of Thursday night's NFL Draft, Beck's sister, Kylie, shared a heartfelt message to her brother.

"Blessed, grateful and honored to cheer you on!" she wrote for her brother.
"Draft week is finally here."
Beck, meanwhile, has reportedly impressed NFL teams throughout the process.
"Carson Beck has impressed people in the process. When he's meeting with coaches, he comes across, as one scout put it to me, a beautiful mind in terms of his football IQ. He knows exactly what's going on on the football field," Pelissero added.
"You remember the old Bill Parcels rules for drafting a quarterback. College graduate, senior… 30 starts, 23 wins, 60% completions, 2:1 touchdown-to-interception ratio. He's above and beyond in all those metrics and he's 6'5, has a good enough arm. Why is that guy not going high?"
The first round of the NFL Draft is set to begin at 8 p.m. E.T.
