feels like one of those quarterbacks who just annoys defenses because the play never quite feels over when it should be. He’s another genuine playmaker, but not in that fake chaotic way where everything has to break down for him to matter. What stood out to me was how tough and functional he is in the pocket. He refuses to go down on first contact, especially when pressure closes in on him, and he does a good job staying alive without instantly turning every snap into a scramble drill. If there’s a lane, he’ll take it. If not, he’s still trying to make the throw. That balance is important. When his feet are underneath him and he stays over the top, there’s some real zip on the ball and he can absolutely drive throws into tighter windows. The main thing I’d want cleaned up is the arm slot in some of his throws, because he can drop it at times. It doesn’t typically mess with the accuracy, but it definitely takes a little off the ball and can close off some windows he should have access to. Still, the reason I’d bet on him is the way he plays the position. There’s toughness here, some gamer to him, and enough poise mixed with competitiveness that you can just tell shows up late in games.
