TJ Yates

School: North Carolina
Position: QB
Bio: Full-time starter the past two seasons. Totals last year included 66.8%/3418/19/9. Junior numbers included 2136 passing yards with a completion percentage of 60%.
Positive: Smart collegiate quarterback who lacks the physical skills for the next level. Poised in the pocket, displays good awareness, and shows terrific field vision. Looks away from covered targets, does not force the ball into receivers, and makes proper decisions. Quickly locates the open wide out on the field and effectively sets up the screen pass.
Negative: Lacks a quick release, top arm strength, and the ability to get the ball downfield. Cannot power the ball through the tight spots.
Analysis: Yates is a terrific game manager who is always in control of the situation. He lacks the size and arm strength to be a starter at the next level yet may be effective backing up in a timing or West Coast offense.
