This article has him amongst the “second tier” after 1A Shroud and Young, then 1B Lewis and Richardson. they expect him to go on Day 2, in the second or third round.

I read that he was projecting as the 7th best QB in the draft, maybe a 2nd or 3rd round pick, but I wouldn't be surprised if he lasted to the fifth or sixth round pick. Most of his core metrics were worse this past season than the prior season (yes, I know he played behind one of the worst Power 5 OLs in history), and the NFL doesn't like players who seem to regress (see Purdy, Brock). His combine numbers were just okay, a 4.94 40 versus the 4.75 he ran as a high schooler.
How would you know McKee's combine numbers when the combine hasn't happened yet? Surely if you're psychic you already know when he gets drafted, so why not just tell us?
You're right, Sam. My mistake. And I posited 5th to 7th round.
How about you?

Mid round pick.
He played in Shawfense, a needlessly insanely complex offense that makes it way too hard on the QB (this year with a terrible OL to boot) AND incorporating a slow mesh system that didn't fit him at all.
Scouts are basically saying just to look at his tools because the offense itself was dreadful and never schemed players open (hence a lot of good "tight window" throws out of pure necessity). Similar situation to Daniel Jones, who had a horrible OL and receivers who couldn't even catch the ball at Duke.
