Reminds Us Of

Josh Allen Buffalo Bills

Owns excellent size with prototypical build of a big-bodied pro-style quarterback. Nearly 6-foot-5 and 230-plus pounds and wears it well. Arm strength reflects those physical tools.

Ball gets out fast despite long-levered build. Displays big-armed vertical juice with terrific velocity in short-to-intermediate situations. Knows how and when to vary zip and does so from myriad arm angles with impressive playmaking creativity. Shows ability to suddenly and smoothly dial back power, if needed, at tail end of delivery.

Not a true dual-threat, but capable of scrambling when the play breaks down. Throw power transfers to off-schedule, off-platform opportunities. Strong enough to make timely, accurate cross-body throws on the move. Functional athleticism derives in part from a foundation at other positions earlier in career.

Shows anticipatory feel for the position. Strong production as a junior improved to outstanding during senior season. Only seven interceptions in 514 throws (one in 73.4 attempts) in 2021. May need time to adjust to speed of the game and processing rate at the next level.

Most naturally talented thrower in the 2022 quarterback class. Not tapped out by any means and possesses immense upside. Should become an impact high-major starter with NFL Draft first-round potential.
