He had the most passing yards in the NCAA, the 4th most passing attempts and the 3rd longest yards per completion in 2017. At any distance, the stats say it can't be too bad or his stats would be slanted. As someone who watched 9 of his games this season, (10 counting the bowl game), I did not see a problem with his accuracy at any distance. There are things that people can justifiably criticize Rudolph about (no matter how nit-picky they may be), but accuracy is not one of them.

Yeah I know the stats and have seen plenty of Rudolph too. Out of 50 major draft eligible QBs from 2012 onwards Rudolphs accuracy from 1-10 ranks 31st. His accuracy on screens and pre LOS ranks 34th. His total adjusted accuracy is 25th.   He's 16th from 20+ which is very good and easily seen on the field. His spotty accuracy from short shows up alot and you'll see his receivers having to adjust to passes regularly. 

As a comparison Josh Rosen has bad short accuracy but is the most accurate intermediate passer in the country. He ranks 14th in adjusted accuracy.

I don't know where your getting those stats from or whether it accounts for dropped balls, but from watching almost all his games last year, I didn't see anything close to what you are referring to. I've seen almost every game he, Mayfield and Rosen played last season and accuracy, is the one thing that impressed me about all these guys. Each one can hit their receivers in stride and hit them right between the numbers on all of their passes. Personally, I wouldn't mind trading up, if it meant landing any of the three, although I have some concerns about Rosen's attitude and injury history.
