Footage of practice when he was still a QB doing QB drills with all the other QB's. JJ has an arm but no accuracy. Shep has no arm and no accuracy and throws the worst spiral. His ball would hang in the air ready for an interception even on a 10 yard route. He can develop into a heck of a receiver though if he is willing to stick around.
Not doubting you, but was he really that bad throwing the ball? Do you have any links or footage? (again, not doubting you just curious to see for myself)

Dude Chris Mitchell is a close friend of mine and he said the throws are almost laughable on the college level

Most of the footage I watched was from Scout and it had all the QB's rotating through throwing the same routes(JJ,JL,Shep,Garrett). Shep had by far the worst attempts at every type of pass on the route tree. His deep ball was non-existent. Even when you look at his HS footage, those balls do not look very deep. He is able to find open receivers because every team went all-in on stopping him from running. His run highlights were amazing.
