But when it does break down he shows very good mobility for his size ala Carson Wentz.  What games did u watch? To get a good feel for all his strengths and weaknesses the texas, va tech, and Pitt game are the best to watch. As far as wrs go, it was a general comparison. They have Washington who is just like Ross, a speedster who can do it all. He is taller and faster but like I said it's a general comparison. And they have ateman a 6"4 220 pound tall wr who will run about a 4.5 flat which is about what aj ran. 

The two games I primarily watched were vs TCU and Oklahoma. He was not good at escaping the pocket in those games from what I remember.
And for someone who is good at escaping the pocket, I would expect more than 35 yards rushing total for a 14-game season. There were six games where he had negative yards. From what I watched and also researched, Rudolph is a big pocket passer with a big arm.
And yes, I get rushing yards doesn't equate to exactly pocket escaping ability.
