Expert Analysis
Paul Gregorian | Prep Redzone Scout
Symons is a very intriguing prospect at the quarterback position and is a true dual threat signal caller that has outstanding downfield speed, twitch and a live arm both in the pocket and when on the run. He is an accurate passer that does a good job buying time with his legs and offers some position versatility and upside due to his length and frame. The multi-sport athlete is still a raw and developing prospect but should draw plenty of interest on the camp circuit this summer and will definitely pass the initial eye test.

Symons is a very intriguing two-sport star for Coeur D’Alene and already holds multiple FCS scholarship offers for Basketball, including from the hometown vandals. He is a big bodied passer with a strong arm downfield, great athleticism inside and out of the pocket and shows he can throw on the run and fit the ball into tight windows downfield. He is a natural athlete that feels pressure and can tuck it and run with true open field speed and good wiggle, especially for his size. Checking in just inside the top 5 at his position and as the number 12 player in his class, he should have a huge Senior season for the Vikings and draw college interest for football.

Symons is one of the top junior quarterbacks in the state with his ability to really push the ball down the field. He is a plus athlete that can really make thing happen in the pocket but has enough movement ability to really make plays all over the field. Throws with great timing and anticipation that allows him to throw his receivers open.

Symons is a very athletic passer that checks into our ranks as a top 5 prospect at his position within Idaho, and just inside the top 15 overall. He does a nice job at throwing on-schedule balls into tight windows, has good velocity over the top and can throw on the run with good zip on the ball and anticipation. Under pressure, he shows good pocket mobility and does a good job at scanning the field quickly while moving defenders with his eyes. He is another no brainer next level athlete and should be one of the states best over the course of the next two seasons.

Symons has had a really good camp season along with his showing as a basketball prospect. A great athlete with elite measurables he has shown improvement in his platform and balance. His arm strength has been a constant but he now has the accuracy to go with it. He is a prospect that can really hurt you with his legs more than people give him credit for and will be a ranking riser.

Symons had a monster year once he took over for the Vikings where he led them to the state championship game. A plus athlete that really moves well for his frame and is growing in his ability to move in the pocket. Shows good arm strength with a smooth release and good timing. Will be a name to watch in the north of Idaho for the next two years.

Symons is a very good athlete that excels at making plays with his feet and getting out of the pocket while throwing on the run/across his body. He is another signal caller that has good arm strength for his age, and can move through his progressions quickly before delivering the ball downfield. He heads one of the top programs in the state, and should have no shortage of weapons to throw to this Fall, as there is plenty of firepower returning for the Vikings from last season.

Symons is a still developing prospect and is very active in the pocket, while excelling at throwing on the run and can make big plays with his legs downfield with his escapability and disciplined eyes under pressure. Although still needing to clean up some things mechanically, he is a true gunslinger that is not afraid to take chances with the ball, and is always dangerous as a running threat and making something happen out of broken plays. He checks in just outside the top 15 overall across Idaho, and at our number five quarterback spot after coming off a very nice Sophomore campaign for CDL.
