Blake Bortles

Looking at this guy and wondering how he is not being talked about more often. This guy looks every bit as good as the top QBs. His release bothered me initially but makes it up with absolutely everything else.

Bowl Game vs Ball State

And he is able to play well vs top teams in the country like South Carolina and Louisville http://draftbreakdown.com/players/blake-bortles/

Nice find. The kid has great pocket presence, and an ability to escape. Seems to have a catchable ball. Thanks.

Brought him in the prospects threads. Much more impressive than guys like Mettenberger, Carr or Boyd.

Glad someone else likes him. I bet he could rise to mid first round if he declares. Love his mobility and ability to go through his reads.

I like this kid too. He tore up my PSU team this year. I watched Boyd last week and I want no part of him.

What I like about him is that he is quick and elusive, but not in a read-option sort of way.

Reminds me of Fran Tarkenton.

Some even more impressive throws here:

Like how this kid throws. Also looks like he makes pretty decent decisions (at least on the highlight video).

highlights are good but watching the Louisville tape is even more impressive

Not so fast

He's good, but I was at the South Carolina gam and he made a lot of mistakes.

Word here in Orlando is that he is staying for 1 more year at UCF.

I'll take that bet. Seems mobile enough, but his release is near Tebow ugly.
