Wrote some notes from watching a few of his 2022 games.
-First of all, Ga Tech offensive line sucks.
-Sims has a great touch on 20ish yard throws. Best way to describe it is he gives his WRs a chance.
-Certainly has running ability and low fear, but he’s not going to break long runs. Seems to love that side line and get a first down.
-Ga Tech downfield blocking is awful by WR and RBs when Sims tucks it.
-Sims is certainly no sack evader. Not saying he had a lot of chances, but the first guy typically gets him.
All in all, I think we’ll love him running on 3rd and 7 to extend the drive. We may even enjoy some red zone touch passes. But we will be a bit frustrated on how he accepts the sack. Always seems a half second away from breaking it, but doesn’t (or very rarely) break the long run - I didn’t see a long run.
One last positive thing, he definitely doesn’t seem to get discouraged. Id say he’s a gamer, prob needs a better team and coach, but not a complete game changer.
QB comparison, if you know who this is.
-A little bit better Xavier Lee from FSU 05-07
Biggest pro: You know what you’re getting. He’s kind of consistent in looking like a Deshaun Watson physically, but playing like a 6.5-7 / 10.
Biggest con: Although I love his touch passes, he has almost nothing that separates himself like TM’s speed, Armstrong’s leadership, Ganz’s being 8/10 on everything, and 2AM’s look of something special waiting to breakout.
Prediction: He’ll have a low completion rate, but gets more 15 yard passes. Makes up for some of that w running for first down ability. Idk if he’s injury prone, but the way he accepts hits, I think there will be 2-5 games we see another QB where it wasn’t planned.
