I think I found the next Tom Brady..

[30gut]

As a mid-round prospect I like Stanzi also but any time you say that you found the next Tom Brady you should expect some pushback and rightfully so.

But, there are some similarities that I see both wear 12 both played in a pro-style offense both have a classic over the top throwing motion.

Anyway here's some evals I did on Stanzi last year:

I like Stanzi too especially since he could be available in outside the 1st 2 rounds.
Here's my take:
Ricky Stanzi is not any type of real threat to run nor does he have a big time arm.
He lacks the physical superlatives like a Locker or Newton.
But he has proto-typical NFL frame, decent arm (i hope he throws at the combine), good production/efficiency (almost on par w/ Luck) and comes from a pro-style offense.
Nice compact throwing motion w/ a quick release.[SIZE=1](although and this is just a nit-pick he sometimes holds the ball kinda low and very very rarely seems to pat the ball or hitch his delivery)[/SIZE]
Good footwork 3-5-7 step drop back foot hits the ground the balls out.
Has a clean drop back, sets his feet, and throws from a solid base.
He moves well in and out of the pocket and can throw on the run.

What's your assessment?

B/c looking at "youtube" film from this year i don't see most of the above flaws.
nepatriots.com mentions-

throwing from the pocket mechanical flaws-but his footwork especially looks very sound and consistent i see good weight transfer and his feet seem light.

Again this must be a review from last year b/c its hard imo to reconcile locking onto a receiver/fitting the ball in tight spaces/decision making need work when you consider his production from this year:

64.8 comp %
8.65 YPA
25 TDs
4 INTs
160.5 Efficiensy rating

In the pros?
He reminds me of Marc Bulger-Matt Schaub type QB.
