He has been discussed like a future franchise quarterback, but he didn't always play like one."
"He is an amazing run blocker, possibly the best in the country. But the pass blocking leaves something to be desired. As good of a run blocker as he is, the passing game is where the NFL lives, and he will need to figure out this piece of his game."
