Note: His accuracy problems were a result of his injury.


Was he injured last year too? He's got a big arm and can make every throw (even with pass rushers bearing down on him) but his accuracy and especially his touch on the deep ball need to improve if he's going to be a good NFL QB

Yeah, he seemed to overthrow 4 out of 5 deep balls. Missed a lot of open receivers down the field the past two years because of it.

He has an absolute cannon and may be the best pure intermediate passer in the draft. If he commits to being an elite quarterback, the only thing that will hold him back will be his complete lack of mobility. He can be Drew Bledsoe 2.0 I think, which would amount to a pretty successful NFL career.

met war a brace for at least 2 games maybe more, throwing a distance down the field could have been affected by the brace !
