Rams’ presence at Brendan Sorsby’s pro day may be about more than quarterback scouting
The Los Angeles Rams are expected to have a presence at Brendan Sorsby’s supplemental draft pro day on July 10, but don’t expect Sean McVay and Les Snead to suddenly develop quarterback…

What are his odds at LT for 5-8 games? Just asking for a friend
Hello, this is my first post on ROD.
1. I'm not concerned about his gambling issue per se from a moral or league suspension standpoint, but I think it is a red flag from a football character POV. In other words, does the draft prospect "love football" and have the necessary work ethic and leadership traits, especially if the team is trying to draft a franchise QB? What I see on tape when I study his games is a QB who doesn't work on his craft, otherwise he wouldn't be so raw at this point. To me, that's a way bigger problem than whatever people might think about gambling itself.
2. He struggles to read very basic defensive coverages. Both pre-snap and with simple post-snap DB rotations, he either throws the ball to the wrong WR or he's very late seeing WRs come open. He doesn't anticipate the route come open, he only throws it after he sees the WR uncover. You can get away with that some in college, but NFL defenses will punish you if your eyes/mind work slow in the pros.
3. His mechanics are extremely lazy and sloppy, both upper and lower body. His feet don't move properly, especially as he goes through the progression and vs mild pass rush pressure and his upper body doesn't rotate, relying too much on his natural arm strength. This results in very bad accuracy misses on what should be relatively easy completions. Even in cases where the WR catches the ball, it hinders RAC, because the WR must adjust and twist, turn or jump to catch instead of immediately being able to run. Normally, his misses are high, which can result in tipped balls for potential INTs and can expose the WR to injury when they get hit in the air.
4. He's a very good runner and scrambler, but he takes off running when what he should be doing is stepping up in the pocket or taking one step to the side and throwing the ball to a route that is a tiny split second away from coming open. This is part of his inability to read the coverage properly before or just after the ball is snapped. Even when he should know that a route will work vs the defensive call, he doesn't give it time, he just tries to be a hero and run himself, which isn't going to work in the NFL. IMO, he's behind where Carson Wentz was when Wentz got drafted.
5. Bottom line is that despite the arm talent and pure running ability, I don't see a future Josh Allen with this QB. I think he's more like Zach Wilson, the guy the Jets drafted, or along the lines of Will Levis, who was drafted by the Titans. He's not the type of QB McVay would like, because McVay loves a QB who is very smart and lives in the film room. McVay needs the QB to be on the same page as the coach, otherwise McVay will pull his hair out and go bonkers with all the mental mistakes and stupid things the QB does on the field, messing up all of McVay's good play designs and play calls.

My prediction: Steelers submit a 1st round pick for him. Sorsby was one of the 5 QB's listed as potential 1st overall pick depending on the season they had. He has all the physical tools to be a high end NFL starter. IMO, Steelers wouldn't have sniffed a chance at a top 5 QB in the draft, so they gamble on it here.
