I'm not sure how anyone can make a fair critical assessment of him based on last year, outside of him having to improve his strength in general and his arm strength (imagine that, a true freshman that should have been redshirting is weaker than he should be - wow groundbreaking stuff there).  He had the nerve issue in his arm, which definitely affected his performance.  He had a swiss cheese line due to injuries which definitely affected his performance.  And he had a change in OC's and the general confusion that comes along with that which definitely affected his performance.  And with the line issues, he had inconsistent, at best, help from the run game.  Way too many variables there to expect a true freshman to rise above.

I for one will reserve judgement until I see him playing when he's healthy, physically ready to play and has a healthy line in front of him so he doesn't have to look like he's holding a hand grenade everytime he drops back.  He may or may not end up being "the guy" but he deserves a fair shake.
