Watching Jayden’s all passes/runs from 2023 for like the 5th time because I’m genuinely trying to find something to be happy about in the event he is our pick Thursday night. But the 3 things that are jumping out to me now are: 1. He has so many perfect pockets and all day to throw on most downs. 2. When he does get pressured or the pocket breaks down, he is not good at navigating the pocket hence the high pressure to sack ratio. 3. For a “running” qb, he is really bad at throwing on the run. It’s like he is too stiff and can’t open his hips to make a good throw. And he doesn’t have the arm strength to throw off platform.

I’m in the same boat. I just don’t see it with Jayden from an arm talent perspective. It boggles my mind how there are so many former coaches/players that I respect, have him as their #2 qb. Yes, he is an electric runner, but I’m just not impressed with the throws that he completes. It’s just so many hitches and fades with hardly any tight window throws. And yes, I have watched every pass of his from last year multiple times! I just watched all of McCarthy’s passes and runs from last year and I have to admit, I’m kind of warming up to him. Definitely prefer him now compared to Jayden. Dude is really accurate and mechanically sound. I know he didn’t throw a ton last year, but he completed so many NFL caliber throws in tight windows! My only concern with him is that it seems like he only has 1 speed for his passes; so many laser beams! If he can incorporate some touch passes, he pretty much has everything you would want in a starting qb. I think my final qb rankings will be: 1. Caleb 2a. Drake 2b. McCarthy 4. Jayden 5. Penix 6. Nix
