He rolled out against Oklahoma and flicked a dime 46 yards. Pretty sure he has plenty of arm.

Well, what are we considering arm strength? How far he can throw a ball or how quickly his ball gets there?

Huh? Brady can sling it.

Brees would be a better example.

exactly and he has plenty of arm strength.

He's the best prospect I've seen in my 40 years.

Better than Elway actually. He's absolutely Taylor made for the NFL.

I'd compare him to a better Peyton Manning actually.

He arm wrestled Chuck Norris and didn’t die

It's not a Brees noodle.

It's not a Stafford arm.

It's more a prime Brady-- not necessarily the longest thrower, but good velocity and rotation on what you need to throw.

Joe Montana had average strength but insane accuracy and touch.

Steve Young's arm wasn't much to write home about, either. He always got exposed in that regard during those QB competitions they used to do in the 90s.

It's going to be interesting to see what happens. Right now he's surrounded by the best team in college football.
Wherever he ends up, he will be going to a really bad NFL team. We'll see how good he actually is.

That’s so true . So many college QBs who had potential just ended up on teams that magnified any weakness . You take the same qb and out them on a halfway decent team and they play 10 years . Lot of luck in making it in the NFL

Burrow’s mid range game is pretty damn exceptional. As long as you have the arm strength for that, you’re gucci, and he certainly has that
