Arm talent.

Big arm is one of those "nice to have" QB things, I'll take it, but I don't think it has much to do with QB success overall and I think it takes an OL to even allow for those opportunities.

And someone who can catch the high velocity ball. There were many cases in the AK season where he put a lot of mustard on short throws and zipped it right through the hands of a receiver.

Nah...his high school receivers caught them without issue. Our guys will nab em.

Nope. His mechanics are solid and he throws a nice ball.
