| Scouting Report | Potential |
| Has the tools to eventually become one of the most accurate passers in America. His arm strength will lead to some unbelieveable passes as he matures. Scrambling ability will never get to the point where it sets him apart. As he matures, his good instincts should work in his favor. |
