The guy makes a lot of big-time throws, a lot of big-time throws. I would say NFL throws. He\u2019s smart. (from 24:05)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cHe does things from an arm talent perspective that other guys just don\u2019t do. He can throw off platform and do it accurately, he can throw going to his left, he can throw going to his right. So there\u2019s a lot to love about his game. It is there. I wish he was a little bit bigger. He\u2019s only about 210 pounds, 6-foot-2.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cI think that\u2019s led to some of the injury issues that he\u2019s had at Texas, and he wasn\u2019t always reliable for staying on the field \u2026 So we\u2019ve still yet to see Quinn go through a year and not get banged up, and that\u2019s worrisome from the NFL perspective.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>According to a report by NFL insider Tom Pellissero on Wednesday, Ewers played the entire 2024 season at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/team\/texas-longhorns-football\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">Texas<\/a> with a torn oblique. He was said to have suffered the injury in the game against Michigan in Week 2.<\/p>\n<h2>Joel Klatt highlights the concerns in Quinn Ewers&#8217; game<\/h2>\n<p>Ahead of the draft, Joel Klatt has already found some major flaws in the game of Quinn Ewers that would likely hinder him from thriving in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/nfl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">NFL<\/a>. Klatt believes he needs to evolve those parts of his game to have a strong chance of making it in the pros.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cThere are times when I\u2019m watching film and I really want him to drive the football into a tight window area, in particular in intermediate zones, and he throws with touch to those zones.\u201d( from 25:37)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cAnd I\u2019m just telling you right now that won\u2019t work all the time at the NFL level. He\u2019s going to have to find some more velocity, or at least be willing to step up and really drive the football onto the frame of the wide receiver in some intermediate spots. That\u2019s going to be crucial for him.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Quinn Ewers enters the draft with his bipolar on-field characteristics. At times, watching Ewers throw the football makes it easy to envision him as a top prospect. However, other moments leave doubt about whether he can develop into a high-level starting quarterback in the NFL.<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-post-rating-widget\">\n<p><template id=\"post-rating-feedback-modal-template\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-feedback-box\">\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-content\">\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-data\">\n<p>Why did you not like this content?<\/p>\n<p><textarea id=\"dislike-feedback-text\" rows=\"4\" placeholder=\"Please type your feedback...\"\/>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\n<button class=\"close\">Cancel<\/button><br \/>\n<button class=\"submit\">Submit<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/template><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-widget-parent hidden\">\n<div class=\"rating-parent-container\">\n<div class=\"rating-content-holder\">\n<p>Was this article helpful?<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-action-container\">\n<div class=\"like-container\">\n<button class=\"post-rating-like-button post-rating-button\" data-action=\"like\"><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"post-like-image post-rating-image\" src=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/like-articles\/upvote-icon-grey.svg\" height=\"20\" width=\"20\" alt=\"like selected\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dislike-container\">\n<button class=\"post-rating-dislike-button post-rating-button\" data-action=\"dislike\"><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"post-dis-like-image post-rating-image\" src=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/like-articles\/upvote-icon-grey.svg\" height=\"20\" width=\"20\" alt=\"avatar selected\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\nThank You for feedback\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\n<span class=\"publisher-name\">Edited by Dipayan Moitra<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script> \nvar fbPixelFired = false;\nvar pixelID = \"952063904834769\";\ndocument.addEventListener(\"scroll\", loadFBPixel, { once: true, passive: true });\ndocument.addEventListener(\"mousemove\", loadFBPixel, { once: true, passive: true });\nfunction loadFBPixel() {\nif(fbPixelFired) {\nreturn;\n}\nfbPixelFired = true;\n!function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s){if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod? \nn.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;\nn.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\nt.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window, \ndocument,'script','https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\nfbq('init', pixelID); \nfbq('track', \"PageView\");\nfbq('track', 'ViewContent');\ndocument.removeEventListener(\"scroll\", loadFBPixel);\ndocument.removeEventListener(\"mousemove\", loadFBPixel);\n}\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/>[ad_2]<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/college-football\/news-the-potential-obviously-there-joel-klatt-offers-detailed-analysis-quinn-ewers-ahead-2025-nfl-draft\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[ad_1] Quinn Ewers is one prospect many would have their eyes on ahead of the 2025 NFL draft.
