Overall assessment:
Kedon Slovis is a seasoned quarterback with enough pocket awareness and accuracy to compete at the NFL level. Despite having an average build, he shows fearlessness in the pocket, willing to take hits to make plays. Slovis excels at operating from the pocket, utilizing efficient movement and maintaining his focus downfield. He is also effective in clean situations, particularly on short to intermediate throws. However, Slovis struggles with arm strength, especially in challenging situations, and tends to be too aggressive, leading to risky throws and turnovers. If he can play within his limitations and improve his decision-making, Slovis has the potential to be a reliable backup quarterback in the NFL, with the ceiling of a capable spot starter. His draft grade suggests he is a backup with draft potential in the sixth or seventh round, ranking 227th overall and ninth among quarterbacks, with a pro comparison to Mike White.
