| Turner is a pro-style quarterback, but has the athleticism to buy himself time and move around in the pocket or scramble for a few yards. While he is a bit awkward mechanically, he generally shows good accuracy and can also put nice placement on the ball while rolling out and looking downfield. He spreads the ball around, puts good velocity on intermediate passes and was very productive. You would like to see him use his legs more passing. |
