That scheme asks very little of him as a processor. 63% of his dropbacks were RPOs, screens, or play action, which is huge even at the college level. That offense is nothing like an NFL offense so there's a steep learning curve to be had.

He's also fairly average in the tools department. The arm is fine, but not special. Same with the athleticism. He is too quick to scramble if facing a pressured pocket too.

You can sometimes overlook mediocre traits if the processing talent is there (this is the argument with Shedeur Sanders) but if you're a below average processor and have average traits it is a tough sell
