Give me an accurate passer over cannon arm any day. Milton was a perfect example of that. If you have the arm strength to throw a 15 yard out pattern from the opposite side of the field that would be enough for me. I could care less about the 80 yard bombs. A 15 yard out pattern is a long freaking throw too.
At the college level I agree 100%. It's more about whether you can make the right read and be accurate & on-time than whether you can rocket an absolute rope of a ball on a deep out. It's Joey Ganz vs Sam Keller, gamer vs. golden arm.
I'm a broken record on this, but I watched the Bears make that mistake with Trubisky, dude is a big, impressive athlete who can launch it. Trouble is he doesn't see it well and he's erratic. Long story short he's no longer a starting QB and he never should have been. See also, McCaffrey, Luke. I never liked his passing film coming out of HS, he looked like an athlete playing QB.
That's why the new Bears QB, Justin Fields, was such a killer at OSU. Kid could place it like crazy, including deep, and he made smart throws. I don't watch Fields and go, "Jesus, this kid is gonna break a lot of fingers in practice" but he throws a gorgeous ball and he has enough velocity, and plays smart.
Torres looks like he's pretty accurate including on the move, but he also has some bad habits that need to get cleaned up, including a tendency to be very late on throws and to never give up on a play. He gets away with it in HS because he can let a WR leak behind the defense and chuck it over everyone's head. You saw that exact same tendency to press every play from Luke last year and you saw where it led...turnovers.
Torres needs to put together some very different senior year film before he looks like a dude who could come in and win a job as a freshman. I don't like him as a runner really at all, he doesn't look sudden or elusive and he takes awkward hits. He gets tackled the way a TE does where every time you go "I hope he didn't just blow a knee."
