1.) Know one new who he was before the season began
2.) Arm Talent questions?
3.) Seems Athletic but not sure if it is transcendent or not.
4.) Hometown kid it will add a considerable amount of pressure on him than any other prospect.
5.) I think Jalen Hurts will be just as good or slightly worse than Burrow. Probably could get him in late first or early second in draft. Hurts + another Elite prospect or Burrow?
People knew who Burrow was before the season, he actually had a decent year last year (not statistically but actually playing) in a bad offense.
"Arm Talent" is NFL level. He can make every throw on the tree.
He is a plus athlete, I'd put him in a similar category as Andrew Luck. My issue is he doesn't avoid contact at the end of runs and that will get him hurt at the next level.
He has played his best games this season against his best opponents, he seems to thrive under pressure which is a plus for him.
Jalen Hurts is a mirage. People are falling for the scheme and bad defenses, but if you watch what he is actually doing it's not going to be an easy transfer into the NFL. Watching tape he is still the same guy he was at Bama who is slow to read defenses when the defined read isn't there. First half against Baylor he was atrocious but they schematically changed some things second half and got him going. Jalen Hurts is a product of Oklahoma and Lincoln Riley. I look at him as a smaller poor mans Cam Newton. He is a power runner who can do some things with his legs and can pass within the system. He doesn't process defenses fast and can be confused by late rotation of defenses.
To me Hurts is a 3rd round pick, and honestly if you can get him there that would be worth a flyer. I think someone will fall in love with him though, and who knows maybe it is Lincoln Riley if he goes to the NFL.
