QB7 - Jordan Palmer, Texas-El Paso Jordan PalmerOfficial Bio
Height: 6-5
Weight: 231
40 yard dash: 4.95
Grade: 58
Strengths:
The younger brother of Heisman Trophy winner Carson Palmer, Jordan Palmer shares the prototypical NFL size and arm strength. Palmer is an extremely tough player who is willing to stand in the pocket and take hits to get the ball downfield. He was successful under coach Mike Price at UTEP, but will benefit from NFL coaching.
Weaknesses:
Jordan Palmer is still developing as a passer and must work on handling the pass rush. When rushed at UTEP, he often made bad decisions and turned the ball over. That pressure will only increase at the next level. His mechanics are inconsistent, as he will throw the ball off balance at times. He is not the most accurate passer and will have to work at making NFL type throws.
Overall:
Palmer has been overrated by some because of his bloodlines. He does have the size to be successful at the next level and will improve under a good quarterbacks coach. However, he does not have the skill of his brother, and will always be vulnerable to a strong pass rush. Palmer is worth while project, but he is not the type of player a team can count on. He has a high bust factor and is likely to either be starting in a few years or out of the league.
