Where do you think Lee will go in the Draft?

I would be shocked if he doesnt get drafted.  Scouts have seen his arm and know his potential.  Not a great year here at Nebraska, but he did have a shaky line, no run game, and an unproven WR corp.  

Crazy things happen when a team likes a QB. Mitch Trubisky started 13 games at UNC and went 2nd overall.  Not saying Lee will go high, but some team will take a shot with him.
Agree.  Think he'll be a late round pick

 
Lee gets drafted, probably on day 3 though. He will be a guy who improves his stock steadily as draft day approaches.

 
Or he’s already 23 years old, has started 3 seasons in the college game, and there is a new coach who has an offense that isn’t a great fit for his skills. I don’t think he was going to improve his stock any by staying at NU another season. 
True, I'm not questioning it. I'm rooting for the kid. I found this: http://www.espn.com/nfl/draft2018/insider/story/_/id/20490772/nfl-draft-2018-mel-kiper-top-10-prospects-rankings-position. So he is on Kiper's radar. 

 
Wow.  Interesting info from Sean Callahan.
Definitely shows how NU hasn’t recruited and developed elite talent on offense in recent years.

EDIT:  Toniu Fonoti also declared early for the NFL in the early 2000s.

While things didn't work out for Tanner the way everyone hoped they would he always conducted himself with class in a way I would expect from a Husker. And between the lack of execution of the OL and WR plus some questionable play calling I think he gave it his all and did the best he could. Even in pressers after tough games he kept his cool. I'm with everybody else in thinking this is best for both him and the team.

I wish him the best and hope he can stick at some NFL team. After seeing a lot of backups this year I could see it happening.

 
If he would’ve been able to start next year- it would’ve been smarter to stay.  If he isn’t going to start next year- it’d be better for him to leave.

 
He knows how to take a hit, throw under pressure, play from behind and stay positive when playing for a losing team.  While I'm not sure if Cleveland is a great fit they may take a look.
