23rd out of 32nd is fair given last year and now the current state of the roster and new coaching staff in place. I think by the end of the year though he's going to fall into that high end tier II list. What you want to see is more games like he had in the home finale at least six times per year. Where he's just clicking, moving the pocket around, getting the team into a position to put at least three points on the board, etc.

He's going to flourish with Pederson here. I have absolutely ZERO doubts about that.

He ran the RPO out of Clemson. If you go back and watch his 2nd year there he was doing a lot more with his legs. Moving outside of the pocket and making throws on the run.

With that said. I would say Lawrence's play will fall in line with middle of the pack to above average this year.
