| Professional Scouting Report | More of a QB than other shotgun/spread athletes (Brad Smith, Josh Cribbs), White most readily compares to Seneca Wallace, though White has better intangibles and a stronger arm. An ideal fit for the Wildcat wing package, White probably lacks enough height and accuracy to ever be a fulltime starting QB but brings enough value as a backup and formational, situational player to merit a late 3rd round or top of the 4th round pick.
|
| Strengths | A genuinely good human being and charismatic leader and winner. Known best for running the shotgun spread option but has a stronger arm and better patience in the pocket than most from that system. Can zip throws to his left and throws very well on the move. Exceptional mobility with very good speed and agility. Very good, confident scrambler/runner. Looked surprisingly comfortable in pro sets during Senior Bowl workouts and had the best deep-ball accuracy of any QB there. Fierce competitor and knows how to rally the troops around him. Bright with a good football IQ. Has some receiving skills.
|
| Weaknesses | Comes from a shotgun spread option system and has almost zero experience taking snaps from center. Short and somewhat thinly built. Accuracy is good at times, but generally is not NFL-ready. Has very poor accuracy throwing to his right, based on poor mechanics in throwing across his body. Will float balls. Uses a variety of arm angles and release points for no apparent reason. Takes a lot of big hits when running, has to learn to protect himself if he wants any sort of longevity.
