re: Who's the better Qb coming out of the two?

This isn't close to being true. He's running the same stuff for the most part that Petrino did at Arky with some designed run plays added in (which was a big talking point for Mallet being "pro ready" or whatever). Petrino's offense puts tons of responsibility on the QB for both pre and post-snap reads relative to the college game. Jackson's not that big of a scrambler and certainly isn't taking off after one read consistently.

Keeps his eyes downfield.

Drops a dime from the pocket. One of many drops from his receivers this season.

I could go on...

Lamar Jackson is a one-read QB who pulls the ball down and takes off if his first read isn't open. That's why people think he's so dynamic. That won't fly in the NFL.

Will fly a lot better then Mayfield will in the NFL
