Stares down his intended target. He needs to improve eye discipline.
Too often appears to be flustered by pressure. Can be quick to flee the pocket.
Inconsistent mechanics, has a tendency to lock his lower half and throw with his arm alone.
Struggles when his receivers’ routes are disrupted.
Often late to recognize the blitz.
Operated almost exclusively out of shotgun with four or five receiver sets.
Not an anticipatory thrower.
Will not hurt defenses on the ground. He has enough mobility to get by but is not much of a running threat.
Hangs his receivers out to dry at times.
Does not appear to see the field very well, throwing into double-teams occasionally.
Struggled with top competition. College career ended on a lousy note as he was erratic vs. USC in the Las Vegas Bowl.”
Other than I think he picks up blitzes well enough, the rest of this still rings true today.

His field vision and eye discipline have actually gotten worse this season. He seems to zero in on Adams to the detriment of the rest of the offense.
