Brad Kaaya, Miami

Height: 6-4 Weight: 209

The good news on Kaaya is that he will make a good NFL quarterback someday.  The bad news?  It may not be in 2017.

Recent reports have the University of Miami quarterback coming back for his senior season next year.  It may be a good choice.  However if he does come out, someone will take a chance on him earlier than later in the draft.

He has 19 touchdowns and seven interceptions so far in 2016 with a 61.1 percent pass completion rate.  His best attribute based on scouting reports is his ability to stick in the pocket. He doesn’t get rattled when pressured.

His current projection is anywhere from the second to the fourth rounds of the NFL Draft. The Cardinals could take a chance on him later in the draft instead of wasting a higher pick on him. It’s all moot for now though if he ultimately chooses to stay in Miami next year.
