Make no mistake about it, this kid is the absolute real deal. 6'4", 220 lbs., has extraordinary pocket presence, and has been making the best of things behind a terrible Hurricanes team. I would personally trade futures if it meant that I could get this kid behind center for the next ten years. It's a shame that he's a true sophomore because this kid has stardom written all over him.

Your thoughts?

Not seen a lot of him. Just bits and pieces. But I've see a few. Very impressed when he played FSU and battled back.

What's with the all over the map accuracy though? Does Miami have a terrible o-line and unimpressive WRs?

Miami's best linemen, wide receiver, and running back all went into the draft in 2015.That should tell you how bad Kaaya has it. He's pressured constantly, and his receivers don't help him. I'm not trying to make excuses for the accuracy, but if you gave this kid a chance and talent around him, he will pick you apart. The thing that I love the most is his mechanics. He's just so fluid and sound, even when he's on the move. Sure, he isn't a Goff or a Lynch...yet. He also has more mobility than a Foles or a Bradford pre-ACL (he reportedly runs a 4.7). I don't know who to compare him to, but he's going to be a stud.
