Grayson McCall 2023 NFL Draft Scouting Report

Background: 

• Sun Belt Conference POY in 2021

• First-Team All-Sun-Belt
• Lettered in basketball in high school

System: 

• Scheme tendencies: Triple-option/RPO hybrid
• 2022 projected role: Starting QB

Pros: Grayson McCall plays and leads with a gritty and tough mentality. He showcases enough zip in the short passing game. His frame and dual-threat ability can expand the offensive playbook. He’s capable of working off the read option, RPO, and power run game. Also, his mobility affords the opportunity to create second-reaction opportunities and off-script plays. He has 53 total passing touchdowns over two seasons and protects the football, with only six interceptions in that span. 

Cons: Grayson McCall operated an RPO/Triple-option hybrid offense, which makes his transition to the NFL difficult—he had a limited amount of traditional dropbacks. His film has plenty of quick passes off three-step dropbacks. He’s inconsistent with his ball placement and accuracy. McCall’s offense created advantageous opportunities for him. His arm strength is average at best, despite his short-area zip. He had far too many predetermined reads and must show improvement in reading defenses post-snap.
