Vitals
Height: 6-2
Weight: 210
Age: 21
Strengths
An effective point guard from the pocket, Ewers shows flashes of big-play ability with his downfield throws when he’s able to find the right balance between touch and velocity. Ewers can effectively change his arm angles depending on what the play requires, and he’s athletic enough to extend plays both within and outside of the pocket, creating opportunities for big gains down the field when coverages break down. He’s not afraid of tight-window throws between the numbers, and doesn’t mind taking his check-downs if things don’t look rosy further down the field. After his time at Texas, Ewers won’t be shaken by high-pressure situations or clutch moments on a big stage.
Weaknesses
Consistency is the biggest struggle on tape for Ewers, who will show superstar potential on one throw, and come back on the next snap with a head-scratching decision or inaccurate throw that leads to a turnover or missed opportunity. He’s got adequate arm strength and movement skills, but he doesn’t have the ability to drive the ball to the deepest parts of the field with ease, and he’s not the kind of explosive runner who can gash defenses for big gains on the ground. Missing a handful of games in multiple seasons due to injury could raise durability questions.

Final Analysis
The best recipe for success in the NFL for Ewers will be a well-designed offense that schemes open receivers and gives him as many answers to the opposing defense as possible, giving him quick reads and the ability to distribute the ball and let his playmakers do the rest. He’ll have to improve his consistency when it comes to decision-making and ball placement if he wants to be a reliable and successful starter at the next level, instead of a high-variance backup who is scheme-dependent.
