I liked Lamar and acknowledged he was inaccurate
. He was much better reading coverage, much better with eye manipulation, ran more NFL style concepts and was a game breaking playmaker.  Lamar was way better playing the MOF too. Had better touch etc etc 

Lock isn't bad at everything bar his arm. He is bad at everything I listed though, he crumbles under pressure , his footwork is awful (he admits this) , he doesn't process things fast enough to make use of his amazing arm.

I wouldn't just say his deep ball accuracy is merely good. He has one of the best deep arms I've seen coming out of college. I also don't feel that he takes too long to process as he consistently gets the ball out in time possessing a nice, quick release.

My biggest issue with Lock is that you so rarely ever see him scramble or get outside the pocket to throw. I've watched many of his plays and could only find a couple where you see him actually get outside to throw. About 95 percent of the time, Lock simply takes the shotgun snap, at most takes a step or two usually backward, and then throws to open guy often deep downfield. If nobody is open in the mid-to-deep range, he'll take off running downfield.

That said, he's pretty good at running downfield, and he's also good at noticing if he's about to be tackled short, at the very last second before crossing the line of scrimmage he'll throw the check-down pass. But if he sees a lane, he's not even checking down. His short game is virtually non-existent.
