You summarized it perfectly and I am in 100 percent agreement.  I played for Albany and knew with my Alma Mater that Cuse would roll.  Albany just lacks the speed in a big way to keep up with Cuse.  The thing that kills me about Devito is his complete lack of Pocket and situational awareness.

It has been 3 years now that I have seen him fail to throw the ball away when he should or even through the ball away on 4th down.  I am not lying, that really happened a couple years ago.  He has costed us field goals by getting sacked when he holds the ball for 5 seconds.

Also, he fails to go through his progressions or hit his outlet when under pressure.  It is not an easy thing to do and I tried to play QB and was terrible it.  My quarterback at Liverpool couldn't do it either and either hit his first option or ran.  The greats like Mahomes, Wilson, etc basically have 4/5 progressions which is 1st option, 2nd option, outlet option (running back) or pull it down and run.

Devito has a great arm and throws a pretty ball.  The problem is that's where his skills end and especially with this team, we need so much more.  I would ride or die with Shrader.  I have seen Tommy's ceiling already and I want to see Shrader's
