Biography: Full-time starter the past two seasons. Totals last year included 66.8%/3418/19/9. Junior numbers included 2136 passing yards with a completion percentage of 60%.

Analysis: Yates is a terrific game manager who is always in control of the situation. He lacks the size and arm strength to be a starter at the next level yet may be effective backing up in a timing or West Coast offense.

Projection: 5-6
