Strengths:
Edwards possess the arm strength and has the size to be a starting quarterback in the NFL. He was a top prospect out of high school and has the intangibles to be a solid player. He has outstanding mechanics and a quick release.
Weaknesses:
It is difficult to accurately project Edwards, because he played with such an inferior supporting cast at Stanford. He was often injured playing behind a poor offensive line and did not have the playmakers around him to succeed. He does not throw the deep ball exceptionally well at this point. He must work on improving his reads as he did not get to play as much as you would like at Stanford.
Overall:
Edwards is more of a project then an immediate starter in the NFL. His workouts will go a long way in determining his draft status and he must prove to NFL scouts that he can stay healthy and make good decisions. The raw physical tools and intangibles are there to be molded into a starting quarterback, given time and the right coaching.
 
he's a project so I don't see us picking him, we should have Quinn or Kolb before it would be time to consider him anyway
 
IMO... the above scouting report is a little dated....I happen to think Edwards is the 3rd QB picked... we'll see...
 
I would like Edwards after Kolb, Beck and Stanton. I am not a big fan of players that have great skills but perform badly in game situations (even if the surrounding cast is the excuse). Edwards' writeups remind me of David Carr, blaming a lot of things on the supporting cast.
If we draft Edwards, "Our organization must see something I don't." -Spoken by a Jets fan in the draft after they passed on Dan Marino.
