with metrics like those he might well land somewhere in the 1st round, and I'll be borderline shocked if he's not taken by the end of the second round.
He is unfortunately missing the NFL arm strength to get drafted before day 3.
yeah if his accuracy/timing was perfectly consistent then his deep ball/arm strength woes wouldn't be as big a deal.
If it's purely or mostly a mechanical thing, then he's probably 'fixable' in the eyes of at least one NFL franchise.
I keep making the Trey Lance comparison but what Lance had going for him was in fact the lack of actual game film - people were purely projecting from his measurables.
Sawyer's problem is that he put a lot of bad throws on tape last year - but he also put a lot of great throws on tape.
So again, I think it all comes down to whether or not there's a franchise (whether owner, GM, HC, or OC, or any combo thereof) that thinks they can fix the problems he's got.
