Michael Pratt Tulane Stats
ESPN

Pros

  • Arm Slots
    Effortless flick that can reach targets despite arms of intruding pass rushers or uneven platforms
  • Ball Placement
    Can drop the ball from a helicopter on moon balls and shows an understanding of when to layer the ball or put heat on it
  • Mechanics
    Can tell he has been groomed to be a precision passer with clean feet, wide base and pocketwork

Cons

  • High-End Arm Talent
    Good arm but currently lacks the rpm’s to drive the ball to the boundary or up the seam
  • Limited Athlete
    Not a statue but isn’t the kind of player you design QB run plays with
  • Panicky
    Has a tendency to rush passes in high-pressure or gold area situations when an extra second would clear windows

Eval:

Pratt is a traditional passer with the capability of making NFL-level throws from a variety of landmarks.

Teams will have concerns about his level of completion and lack of high-end athleticism but his pure QB ability projects him to be a day-three flyer that could potentially push a starter or be a longterm backup in the league. 

Floor Comp: Jake Haener

Capable backup that you don’t want starting but can make plays in an emergency.

Ceiling Comp: Mac Jones (Rookie Year)

Smart player who can orchestrate and make the plays that are there to be had when things are schemed up for him.
