GAME FILM
​#11 Kellen Mond VS tennessee (2020)

#2 Kelly mond highlights (2020)

Strengths: Here is a quarterback with many positive tangibles, a dual-threat, the right height, size, speed, and a powerful right arm. He lacks much experience playing under center as profoundly been a shotgun or pistol-styled quarterback. He throws the ball with such velocity it is hard for the defenders to read him. He can make throws all across the field, whether short, intermediate, or deep throw. His release point is like a snap, and he keeps his elbow to make blistering throws. He remains patient in the pocket and will make all of his progressions before throwing the ball. He will remain in the pocket until the very last moment and absorbed many hits throughout his career. He will pull the ball down and beat defenses with his legs by rolling out to throw off the move or run to create conversions. Whenever he makes it to the open field, he is a problematic quarterback to stop. Teams with RPO or play-action style offenses probably where he will become a quality backup.

Weaknesses: He throws unorthodox and needs to polish up his throwing mechanics despite being productive. A quarterback that is athletic and runs well has heavy feet in the pocket. Instead of sliding or climbing the pocket, he absorbs more sacks than necessary. When his pockets collapse, he tries to attempt to escape it as oppose to creating off-script. His decision-making process is subpar as he will depend on his arm to make throws that dangerous. He will force throws into double-coverages or overshoot his receivers. He needs to work on his consistency by staying in a rhythm.
