Notice at :47 as he makes the TD pass he's falling away from the pass, to me that's a red flag. Then again at 1:20 he's throwing off his one foot, the other foot just swings out there in limbo land. I noticed at 1:50 I thought that's good footwork he's bouncing back and forth feet moving and then he goes into this baseball type pitch and launches the ball!?

 

Kid's got a rocket arm but I don't see the top pick value in him?

 

That's where tweaking his mechanics will come into play.  That's what coaches are paid to do. 

 

If he puts more effort in his foot placement, really stepping into a throw and using his stance to his advantage, then it will refine his accuracy and add velocity to his throws. 


It's not like we have a Tebow situation here when it comes to mechanics.  Tebow couldn't throw; Bortles can  Bortles can be a big time player in this league if he can clean up his stance a bit.
