Overall Assessment

PRE-DRAFT: Not scouted prior to NFL Draft.

POST-DRAFT: Stevens is almost a clone of Taysom Hill, but looks to be a better passer. He will be able to learn the trade directly from Hill now that he was drafted by the Saints. If anyone knows how to use two “Swiss Army Knives”, it will be Sean Payton. It doesn’t look like Stevens will have much opportunity in 2020 and will probably end up being considered something other than a quarterback in fantasy football. Pass for now.
