I think Skylar can throw the ball. I've just always been mystified by one aspect of his game though: You know how for the Steelers Big Ben would stand in the pocket (not a super mobile dude...) and some defender would come flying through and hit his leg, etc. and Ben would just go ahead and throw the ball like nothing happened? Well, Skylar seems to fall down more in those situations. Or he will often side step them, take off and then trip over the next yard marker on the field.
In today's NFL where QB's are either expected to be a bit of a threat out of the pocket or a super poised robot like Brady I don't know where he's gonna fit?
