Jake Fromm 2020 NFL Draft stock hinges on arm strength, per Mel Kiper Jr.
ESPN analyst Mel Kiper Jr. sees Jake Fromm as comparable to Cincinnati Bengals QB Andy Dalton, but the former Georgia football QB needs to showcase his arm strength at the NFL combine

I agree pretty much with what you said. Except somewhat, that I saw many throws Fromm had that were just off target on passes that should of been routine. Slants behind the receivers, arm strength? or timing? Hard to say. Does throw a beautiful 10-12 yard out to the sidelines with decent coverage. But arm strength is going to be a 20-25 yard out or curl with great timing. Did he get a lot of shots? I don't think so. But definitely agree with you about Tua, he made only be in the league a few years due to injury prone. Having nothing to do with being Ala, I was never impressed with Tua. He only threw 3 passes. 40 yard bomb to open receivers with speed, slants to open receivers, or a bubble screen to an open receiver with speed. Don't ever remember seeing him throw a 20-25 yard out to the sideline over a defender with touch. Sorry not impressed. Clemson showed how to stop him. Take away the deep pass and play close to the line of scrimmage with a lot of pressure up the middle. If anyone is thinking about saying "well, he completed so many passes with so much yardage" insert the blind squirrel saying. This is just my opinion. Everything will be seen when they all see the field.
GO DAWGS.
Jake Fromm is a winner. He won 84% of his games as a dawg. He's a great kid and I wish him the very best future in the NFL and beyond. Go Dawgs!!!
Once work-outs start Fromm will tumble from the First round while players who have all the prototypical numbers and bodies the NFL is looking for like Eason will rocket upward.
Has lil to do with who was the better college QB or who will be the best NFL QB at the end of the day …… Just points out Eason has an impressive arm and body build while Fromm has a serviceable body and a sub par arm
Good Luck Jake!
Go Dogs!
I keep hear the Fromm is going somewhere in the 30s...That will put him in the very early second round...I'll believe that when I see it...I'm still saying 4th round
