Scouting Report
The undrafted quarterback has plenty of heart; the question is whether he has the skills to thrive at football's top level. He is very mobile and unafraid to pull it down and run, but he can also break the pocket and throw on the run. He does not let the moment get too big for him but is limited physically and prone to turning the ball over.
Long Range Potential: Inconsistent but mobile quarterback.
