Dude is not going to be a QB in the NFL plain and simple. You would know this if you saw him throw a ball. On top of that, his throwing arm is shot because of his shoulder. He hasn't been able to throw a ball since the last injury and I think can start again around preseason.
If he plays any type of position that requires him to be a skill player and not a QB it will help him transition to a potential position he will play in the NFL. He is going to be used the best way Urban can use him, which is going to be a skill position that will have a threat to throw the ball on some plays. That just makes the other team have to prepare for way more situations which is an advantage.
This isn't too hard to understand and it will help his stock way more than him trying to play QB.

True, two labrum surgeries on top of a not that good throwing arm to start with doesn't equal NFL QB.

Just yesterday Barrett said he is returning to Ohio State.
Pete Thamel ? @SIPeteThamel
JT Barrett just told me: "I'm not leaving. I don't think Braxton is leaving. I don't think Cardale is leaving.
Depends on how Braxton heals up after rehab. Cris Carter and some others close to the program say Braxton will start again.
What separates JT from the others is he has a very high football IQ. Urban said he was the smartest QB hes coached and has the best field vision out of QB hes had. Thats why he started over Jones. He also has a good arm and good athletic ability with nice running skills. The other two are also extremely talented freaks of nature but JT knows how to run the offense better.
