Three-year starter named a Division II All-American last season. Passing numbers as a senior were 62.8%/3,826/32/16 after leading the nation (Division II) in passing as a junior when his throwing for 64.2%/3,679/38/11.
Intelligent quarterback with excellent leadership intangibles and a feel for his position. Quick setting in the pocket, tough and stands in against the rush in order to get the pass off. Scans the field, looks off the safety and spreads the ball around to all his receivers. Displays good arm strength, zips the outs and passes have velocity. Senses pressure, gets outside the pocket to make a play on the move and gets rid of the ball rather than taking a sack. Patient in the pocket, buys time for his receivers and accurately places his throws. Must improve his footwork in the pocket as he never really sets his feet and has an unorthodox throwing motion. Starts his throwing motion from the ear and short-arms the pass. Forces the ball into coverage on occasion and really cannot drive the pass downfield. Has been accurate and very productive at a small-school but may have only marginal skills to be considered as a starter at the next level. Still, solid developmental prospect good to have on the sidelines. Mid-Sixth round.
