Can we talk Joe Burrow?

[CJD]

I am not an expert.
In any way.

But there was a mock draft on Fansided yesterday in which the author made a scouting report for each prospect.

This is the scouting report for Joe Burrow:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1uSbcQD9tQkTvO3j01iaLBFHCDJMvIuxZG-bMNdPbHEg/edit

He didn't explicitly explain the scouting reports but this is what I've gleaned from them:
The Red line is the maximum value for each category.
The Blue line is Joe's rating in those categories.

The maximum values add up to 100 and are the basis for his grade. So, basically, the stats that have the highest maximum are, in this person's opinion, more important than the ones with lower maximum values (for example, arm strength is out of 10, accuracy is out of 30, so this guy is valuing accuracy as 3 times as valuable as arm strength).

He graded Joe as:
7/10 arm strength
25.5/30 arm accuracy
13.5/15 mobility
17.5/20 pocket presence/mechanics
22/25 mental game

For reference, this is how he graded Tua:
8/10 arm strength
25/30 arm accuracy
12/15 mobility
18/20 pocket presence/mechanics
18/25 mental game

So he believes Joe has a somewhat worse arm, slightly better accuracy, better mobility, slightly worse pocket presence and VASTLY superior mental game compared to Tua.

These are his pros and cons for Joe:

Quote:STRENGTHS
-displayed enough arm talent to get by at next level, has made some incredibly tough throws
-deep ball accuracy may be the best in the country
-Making fair share of back shoulder throws, Burrow has shown the ability to toss NFL caliber dart
-great footwork, provides himself with solid base
-big time poise, making gritty, tough plays when Tigers need the most
-plenty mobile, has shown good escapability
-knows when to throw ball away or tuck it
WEAKNESSES
His motion is a bit off, but nothing severe enough to warrant too much concern.
-has the capability to make a risky throw every once in a while

For those concerned about his arm strength, this is at least one person who believes his arm strength is only slightly worse than Tua's but still well above average and will work in the NFL. So much so that he didn't even list it as a weakness.
