Ourlads' Profile:
2020 Guide: What Ourlads' Scouting Services said about JORDAN LOVE: Utah State, 6036 224 4.74. Junior entry, two-year starter, Bakersfield, CA. Earned All-Mountain West honors the past two years. Love’s athletic skill set may help him get drafted higher than his production might dictate. His diminished production in 2019 was many-fold as he lost much of his supporting cast and his head coach at a critical point in his development. May benefit from sitting a year in a situation where he can learn and have talent around him when he earns the opportunity to start. Needs fundamental work from the top of his head to his feet. His footwork is a mess from over-striding to throwing off his back foot. Has the ability to throw deep and an 18-yard comeback from the opposite hash mark. Flashes deep ball accuracy and big play ability. He has the size to throw from the pocket with a clear line of vision or move out with quick-footed escapability. Can make throws from any arm slot or angle. When comfortable in the pocket he will stand in and take a hit if it means completing the pass. At times has showcased his ability to play with touch by dropping the ball over the defender. Athletic and a true run/pass option. Durable and evasive as a ball carrier. Will make numerous mistakes when forced to make quick decisions. Doesn’t always process quickly with line breakdowns and disrupted routes. Question field vision. Will throw the ball into coverage where he has committed 29 turnovers in three years, 17 in 2019 with only 20 touchdowns. Love is a rhythm, on tempo passer who never seemed quite comfortable in 2019. Accuracy is off on mid range and short passes. Throws a receiver-friendly pass. Has some off field red flags that need to be cleaned up. Senior Bowl notes: Struggled with accuracy during the week throwing behind or short arming the ball to deep receivers. The best passes Love threw consistently were the quick 5-yard outs to receivers and the backs. He threw the ball high on deep out cut routes. Transitioned from the pure shotgun to take snaps under center. Missed wide open receivers including a deep route in the game. Has talent, but is a work in progress. Completed 4/6 passes for 26 yards in the game. Carried the ball four times for four yards. 2019 stats: 293/473, 3402 yds, 61.9%, 20 TD, 17 INT, 175 yds rushing, 0 TD, 129.12 QB rating. Ball velocity 54 mph. OSR:7/15. Second/third round. (A-33 1/8, H-10 5/8, SS-4.52, VJ-35.5).
