I'm curious what the opinion of Miami QB Brad Kaaya is on this board? I read an article where Mark Richt said Kaaya has the best field vision and understanding of offensive concepts of any quarterback he has ever coached including Matt Stafford. When I saw Kaaya what impressed me most was his impeccable footwork and mechanics. If I was to show my son a video of proper set up, footwork, and throwing mechanics, Kaaya would be a really good example. I know this is just stupid, but his mechanics are almost Tom Bradyish. Not in anyway saying Kaaya will ever reach that level, but I like Kaaya a lot and was curious what others thought. Thank you.

Wildly inconsistent. All world one minute not so much the next I'd spend a seconder rounder on him

He actually played better last year. He seems to lack pocket presence. I don't like his chances but he has a big arm.

He had a bad year he was thought to be a heisman front runner before the season started

He had the year he's always had. The kid doesn't have much mobility or pocket presence and needs to be able to get everything set ..... When things break down or get wild then things fall apart. He frequently misses really badly with his passes.

He was a good QB and I enjoyed watching him, but very little progress during his time ..... I just don't see him as an NFL QB
