He needs to get with good coaches and it's going to take a few years of development, but all the tools are there. Big kid, really athletic, strong arm. He's only 20 and the small sample size against lesser competition is a little worrying, but they won every game and dominated most of them.
There were multiple games where he didn't even play in the 2nd half because they were so far ahead. His stats could have been much higher. He only had 287 attempts in those 16 games. 67% completion, 9.7 yard avg, 2,786 passing yards, 28 passing TD, 0 INT, 1,100 rushing yards and 14 rushing TD.
Sad he didn't get to play this year, would have been nice to see if he continued to progress. But as it stands now I'd only want the top 3 guys in order TLaw Wilson Fields
TLaw is everything as advertised.... crazy pocket awareness, quick to diagnose defenses, amazing arm talent, throws with anticipation.
Wilson is kind of very similar in my eyes with how he plays with anticipation, if a WR isn't open he sees it before he is open. Makes crazy throws very good touch and accuracy. I just think sometimes he gives up on the pocket too soon and tries to escape and scramble outside.
Fields has probably the best arm in the class with power and accuracy combined it's insane watching him throw the ball, quick release effortless power. All three of these QBs have great scramble ability and showcase good mobility. The thing that reallllllly worries me about fields is when you watch his gametape on est but it's ALOT but I'd say 80% of his dropbacks he stares down his #1 WR (you'll notice it). He doesn't really throw with anticipation which you NEED to do in the NFL. He will stare down his first read who often gets open, if he isn't open he'll hold onto the ball for a long time and either scramble of force a throw on an unread play diagnoses. Also proven he holds on to the ball too long when you look at the amount of times Fields has been sacked vs both TLaw and Wilson. And OSU offensive line are no slouches.
