BIOGRAPHY: Started four games as a senior posting 56.7%/1,051/10/4. Broke into the starting lineup as a sophomore and put up career numbers of 60.2%/3,021/24/13 followed by 59.9%/2,580/16/13 as a junior.

POSITIVES: Longshore presented himself as an up-and-coming prospect in 2006 yet his game has regressed since. He possesses the size and stature to play at the next level but must improve his mechanics and consistently play at a higher level to be anything other than a camp casualty.

NEGATIVES: Throws with a three-quarters delivery. Releases the ball off his back foot, and does not always throw with proper mechanics. Streaky, makes questionable decisions and puts the ball into coverage. Maturity and leadership have been questioned.

ANALYSIS: Physically gifted signal caller with an erratic game. Patient in the pocket, goes through receiver progressions, and takes a hit in order to get the pass away. Displays solid field vision, and takes the safe underneath outlet if nothing else is available. Possesses a quick release and an adequate arm.

PROJECTION: FA
