Josh Rosen Pocket Presence

I’m not sure why I need to say it but I think that’s by far an exception and not the rule. But I do think he has a better feel for taking what is given him in terms of his legs than Ryan ever has. Why that never developed with Ryan with time and game reps I will never know. It’s a largely natural progression thing. I mean the percentages on long term starter QBs who don’t develop it are basically nil.

Tannehill was a former NCAA receiver, so yes, he’s more athletic and probably faster than Rosen, as I’m sure he’s faster and more athletic than Aaron Rodgers. (The fact that Tannehill didn’t seem to know when to run except when the coaches told him to was one of the most frustrating things about him). Rosen has enough athleticism to elude defenders with his feet often enough when he has to, which is what we’re really talking about. Whether he has that sixth sense to know what to do is another matter.
 
In time Rosen will improve his pocket presence and deliver the ball well enough to move the chains. But if the o-line sucks, he would have to improve his pp fast, no doubt. I am more concerned with o-line than I am with Rosen. The guy will, better, mature in his role asap or else the trade would be for not.
 
That's the one area where I think he clearly has an advantage over Tannehill.

Can someone comment on his arm strength? He doesn't seem to have the arm talent/velocity/zip that you would like. Also, Is it me or does he seem to float his balls (there's a joke in there somewhere)?
He reminds me of a combination Troy Aikman and Joey Harrington. Throws a nice pretty ball like aikman.
 
We need to surround with play makers pronto!
 
It's much better than Tannehill's. He moves well enough in the pocket and he seems to sense pressure fairly well, but he is not very athletic at all and he won't be able to run away from anyone.

We’re not talking about Dan Marino here either... I think he has plenty of mobility to operate aTom Brady pocket QB offense... which happens to be what we will be running.
 
I think confidence in the oline contributes to pocket presense...

A QB that can count on certain areas of the line being solid can probably visualize their slides a little better and look better doing them.
 
For some reason i cant find it now to post, but last night i watched a all 22 video from John Congemi on Miamidolphins.com about Josh Rosen and he specifically noted his pocket presence and he looked very good in the pocket, especially compared to what we are used to here in miami. Try to find that video and you will see how good it was last year.
