Interesting read on Logan Thomas

Logan Thomas is about the opposite of Colin Kaepernick.  Only things they have in common are size and a big arm.  I bought into the "better athlete than QB" thing because of his size and straight-line-speed but when I went back and really focused on his game I was surprised with what I saw.  Outside the Duke game (which was atrocious) he was very accurate from the pocket but absolutely useless when he had to throw on the run.  I would not draft him in any offense that incorporates a lot of rollouts/moving pockets or asks the QB to run.  Anyways, here's my write-up on him.  All JMO of course.

 

<b>8. Logan Thomas, Virginia Tech</b> 6'6", 250# Round: 4 When I really studied Thomas' game, I was surprised about what I saw. He has a very good arm and is a better passer than he gets credit for within the pocket. Though he is big, strong, and straight-line fast, his accuracy on the move is lacking. He is also not a very good scrambler. Needs to be more consistent setting his feet and getting his balance before throwing, as he delivers nice, accurate strikes when doing so. Thomas rarely makes a poor decisions throwing the ball. He has kind of a long throwing motion and may throw too hard for some receivers. More than a couple of his passes were intercepted after popping out of his receivers' hands. If Thomas is going to be successful in the NFL, it will be strictly as a pocket passer unless he makes huge improvements in his QB mobility skills. Despite the debacle at the Senior Bowl, steps up in the pocket against the rush an delivers the ball downfield. However, he is sacked without feeling the rush more than average. He played his worst game of the year vs. Duke as he fell victim to some robber schemes and was off-target on deeper throws. (vs. North Carolina, Miami, Virginia, Duke, Georgia Tech)
