Stanzi is a tall passer with a traditional over the top delivery and the ability to get the football out of his hands quickly.
He isn’t very accurate and needs to do a better job of going through his progressions, as he has a tendency to stare down his receivers.
Stanzi isn’t the best decision maker and doesn’t sense the pocket collapsing around him, leading to turnovers and hurried throws.
This guy is a pro-style passer with great experience playing against Big-10 defenses and the leadership qualities that it takes to make a team into believers.
Stanzi struggled mightily at the Senior Bowl with his ball placement and accuracy, causing some scouts to drop him on their boards.
