Message: [QUOTE="IthacaMatt, post: 3978801, member: 405"] Even if they mix up the running game to have some 2 back sets like we saw, and planned calls like QB draws for Shrader, they are still going to have to throw the ball 15-20 times a game to keep teams honest. Sure, a few of those can be screens, which we saw he has pretty decent touch on. They are going to need slants to the slot, TE over the middle, and still keep throwing the quick outs to the side where you have 2 or 3 WRs. If he is going to throw more than 10 yards downfield, I like his chances on post patterns better than deep on the sidelines. He wasn't close on several of those. Let him use quick passes all over the field, roll the pocket for R/P option. Shrader can be a decent to a plus QB, depending on how quickly his throwing mechanics return, and how much they are willing to put in plays that better suit his skills. [/QUOTE]
