Strengths:
Has prototypical size...Arm strength is more than adequate...Displays good touch, timing and accuracy...He sees the field well and knows how to read a defense...Is naturally athletic...Tough and stands tall in the pocket...Productive...A competitor with solid intangibles...Lots of experience against top competition...Still improving.
Weaknesses:
Extremely inconsistent...Durability's a big concern...Gets sloppy with his mechanics and fundamentals...Below average mobility...Does not throw well on the run...Has had his confidence tested..Needs to be developed..Probably a boom or bust type.
Notes:
Uncle, Danny, played in the NBA for over a decade and is currently the director of basketball operations for the Boston Celtics...A four-year starter in the SEC...Has missed action with injuries to his shoulder ('04), neck ('05), ankle ('06) and knee ('07)...Really blossomed as a junior and senior under offensive coordinator David Cutcliffe, who coached both Peyton and Eli Manning...An underrated prospect with starting potential...Has everything that you look for in a pro signal caller physically and could end up being a pleasant surprise if he can show a bit more consistency.
