Would you draft this QB early? No cheating with google searches.

Edit: this can be from any draft in the past 25 years (including tomorrow's).

2nd Edit: He is a current starting NFL QB.

3rd Edit: JinFL guessed it correctly on page 3 if you want to know.


Strengths:
-Scouts say teammates rallied around him
-Enthusiastic and energetic on the field
-Gives safeties very little time to diagnose where he's going with the ball
-Works rapidly through progressions and can get the ball out quickly
-Excellent poise from pocket and doesn't slide around unnecessarily
-Weaponizes pump fake as a tool to manipulate defenders
-Natural feel for timing as a passer
-Works around arm limitations by throwing early and with great placement
-Accuracy and ball placement is remarkably consistent
-Owns the back-shoulder throw and can wear out cornerbacks with it
-Drops perfectly thrown balls into deep buckets with rare accuracy and touch
-Unfazed by additional rushers and willing to stand in and deliver

Weaknesses:
-Below-average height for an NFL quarterback
-High number of batted passes with more likely to come in the pros
-Benefited from scheme that allowed an abundance of one-on-ones
-Scouts are concerned by perceived lack of arm strength
-Awful game against rival after dominating lesser defenses in conference
-Very little stride-and-drive in his release
-Intermediate and deep throws require additional air
-Nose of the ball will drop some on drive throws
-Appears to lack some confidence with touch throws over linebackers in zone
-Defaults to the short read on high/low looks
-Unlikely to run away from closing rushers

So obviously I'll go ahead and confirm it is not some tricky "Oh it's Joe Burrow" trap.

I was about to respond to your original guess of Drew Brees. But no it is not Brees or Tua. Both are great guesses though.

I'll clarify it can be from any draft in the last 25 years. Could be this one or from the past.
