I've been watching Trent Green for five years now. In that time frame I've seen over 80 percent of his games.
Strengths:
Good field vision (excellent at reading defenses, doesn't get fooled too often).
Superb command of the offense (knows where everyone needs to be and will be if the play is run properly).
Extremely accurate if given time to throw. Deadly off play-action.
Adequate arm.
Has surprising escape ability at times despite limited mobility - he's not Bledsoe. Fearless scrambler (got him hurt last year) and will dive for first downs.
Rarely fumbles.
Devastating blocker, especially when the running back cuts it back against the grain.
Weaknesses:
Holds the ball way too long sometimes - this is his most glaring weakness.
Horrid accuracy when on the run. Will frequently throw the ball in the dirt at an open receiver's feet when trying to throw while rolling out.
Throws an average-at-best deep ball.
Has a nasty habit of forcing the ball in the redzone, leading to interceptions at the worst possible times.
You will need a good-to-great offensive line to get the best out of Trent Green. If you can't protect him consistently, he's average at best. He'll make tough throws under pressure, but if pressured constantly will eventually snap and start making mistakes. If you CAN protect him consistently, even with limited receivers, he'll get the job done time and again.
