Jimmy Clausen QB Notre Dame #7

Ht: 6'2
Wt: 223
Strengths:
Adequate height and size. Above average arm strength; can make any throw on the field. Good to above-average accuracy. Experienced in a pro-style offense. Decent athleticism; can buy some time with his feet. Has shown the ability to stand the pocket and remain calm under pressure. Very good overall mechanics.
Weaknesses:
Will dance in the pocket and rush his throws when consistently pressured; makes too many mistakes due to losing his mechanics in these situations. Has a reputation of being a me-first player; not the attitude you want in a franchise quarterback. Maturity may be a concern.
Comments:
Physically, Clausen has the tools to be an elite quarterback and should be a top 10-15 pick. Due to his three years of experience in Notre Dame's pro-style offense he may be the most NFL-ready quarterback in this year's draft class. However, some teams may be concerned with his maturity level and his dedication to the team. This is something teams will pay close attention to in interviews and each team's opinion will be vary. Some quarterbacks who enter the league with these concerns grow out of it (Dan Marino), those who don't rarely reach their full potential (Jay Cutler, J.P. Losman).
