How well does King throw the ball? I know he’s a great athlete, but is he accurate? Can he make all the throws? Is he a cerebral player — can read defenses quickly, etc, etc?
With a spread QB in Lashlee's system, the main traits I would look for are leadership, mobility, and release time. Ideally a QB isn't going to have to make a lot of complicated reads. The OC will do that for him. Accuracy doesn't need to be that great, since the QB shouldn't typically be asked to make NFL throws. Obviously you want that in a championship QB, but if the reasonable goal is winning 10 games and the ACC coastal with a stopgap QB, then you don't need an elite QB.
