So I get it he’s just a freshman, but his pocket awareness is poor and he’s far too slow to decide when to take off and run. I haven’t seen a whole lot of progress throughout the year and he continues to hold the ball far too long. It doesn’t help that he doesn’t have a quick first step and has average overall speed. Hope the kid steps up and speeds up his decision making.
You won’t see progress this year. That’s too much to expect. 2nd year is when you should start seeing him change his game from what he got away with in high school to what he needs to do in college
His top end straight line speed is good. His lateral quickness and ability to make defenders miss is absolutely dreadful, not to mention that he runs into sacks. Some guys like Caleb Williams and even Cam Rising just have eyes in the back of their head and can evade defenders they don’t even see. Hopefully it’s something he develops in the offseason, but I doubt it.
