It's tough to scout a player's brain; it's easy to scout their physical tools. Shanahan certainly liked Beck's physical skillset. But when Shanahan was evaluating his mental game, maybe Beck's tape at BYU didn't have him doing all of these panic checkdowns and double clutching. Shanahan might have thought all Beck needed was just needed time to settle into the scheme.
