-highly competitive

Cons

-lacks great physical strength and stature

-lacks mobility and ability to avoid rush

-does not throw a tight spiral

-system type player who might struggle if forced to adlib 

-needs to work on reading blitzes and elaborate defenses

Player B

20 Yd Shuttle: 4.16 seconds 
Three Cone: 7.12 seconds

Pros

-Extremely smart on and off the field. Student of the game who studies and understands film.

-Has really grown and filled in nicely and now has good size.

-Is a slick ball-handler and effective play-action passer.

-Gets packages in the huddle and then audibilizes at the line of scrimmage after seeing the defensive package on the field.

-Has an accurate arm and can throw with timing and touch.

-Classic delivery and quick release and arm.

-Above-average mobility for a quarterback.

-Highly productive and has fine intangibles. Won Senior Bowl MVP honors with a very accurate game.

-Has made a weak arm into an adequate arm through strength training and by learning how to maximize his arm’s potential by throwing on rhythm and stepping into his throws.

Cons

-Looks like a by-the-numbers, slightly mechanical passer at times.
-Lacks a great arm and can’t drive the ball down the field, unless he can really step into his throw and is throwing in rhythm.

-Does not throw the deep ball that well.

-Needs to have his feet and body correctly aligned at all times.

-Accuracy suffers the further he throws down the field.

-Will lock on to his primary receiver and tip his hand too often.

-A lot of his completions are on short passes where the receiver does a lot after the catch.

-Has rarely been knocked around in a game, so you don’t know how he will play after he gets battered and bruised and hit on almost every passing down.

-Did not throw at the Combine, where scouts wanted to compare his arm against other quarterbacks.

I doubt anyone would draft players based solely on a scouting report, as those are pretty subjective.
