Brad Kaaya uneven in bowl game as NFL draft decision awaits
ORLANDO -- After a rough start, Miami QB Brad Kaaya found a rhythm and torched the West Virginia defense on Wednesday night in the Hurricanes' Russell Athletic Bowl victory. The night didn't start off well for the Miami passer. The Mountaineers were getting pressure on Kaaya and shutting down the run game. Miami didn't record a first down until four minutes into the second quarter.
Kaaya missed several seam throws and struggled to avoid the rush. However, he hit ultra-talented freshman wideout Ahmmon Richards on a quick hitch route in the middle of the second quarter and he turned it into a 51-yard score.

At that point, Kaaya settled in and started picking the Mountaineers apart with rhythm strikes underneath before connecting on a 26-yard pass over the top to Braxton Berrios. By the end of the night, Kaaya had produced impressive numbers -- 24-of-34 for 282 yards and 4 touchdowns.

Scouts I’ve talked to have said Watson won’t be a first-round pick. Plays like that make me believe it l.--Pete Prisco

Watson claims to be 6' 2" 215. Maybe he is Drew Brees tall. His game cannot survive in the NFL. Too much run option. See Bobby Griffin.

Bucky Brooks ranking of the QBs.
Quarterbacks


1. DeShone Kizer, Notre Dame
2. Deshaun Watson, Clemson
3. Mitch Trubisky, North Carolina
4. Brad Kaaya, Miami
5. Patrick Mahomes, Texas Tech

There aren't any sure-fire franchise quarterbacks in the 2017 class, but there are plenty of intriguing developmental candidates. Kizer has prototypical physical dimensions, arm talent and athleticism, but his inconsistent play during his final season will raise some concerns about his readiness for the pro game. Watson is a big-game player with a knack for delivering his best performances in his team's biggest games. Despite scouts' concerns about his turnover woes and inconsistent ball placement, he earns rave reviews for his leadership skills and unshakeable confidence. Trubisky is highly regarded in the scouting community as a big, athletic passer with impressive pocket-passing skills. He lacks extensive playing experience, but his accuracy and arm talent makes him an enticing option as a QB1 candidate.
