At this point he's still penny trading. These are just forecasts.
Hopefully he's what Steele Jantz could have been/showed flashes of. Park also showed those flashes. He for sure has a better supporting cast and the coaching staff has better chemistry. Park has NFL potential.
Tough day to throw in with the wind gusting, but I thought he looked fine. The interception wasn't a great throw, but it was off the receiver's hands.
I still think he has some work to do with his feet. He's a gifted thrower, and moves pretty well, so now all he needs is to get his mechanisms refined and he will start really going on all cylinders. I think he has Pro-potential but you never know until they are in the moment.
He looked decent I would say. The most impressive things I saw were some of the pocket pressence he should. There was a couple plays in a row that he really moved well in the pocket in all directions. The second time ended in an overthrow but he made the right read and kept his eyes down the field
The difference between Park and the rest of the failed quarterbacks at Iowa State is that other teams actually wanted him and he was a top 100 recruit. We almost never get that kind of recruit better yet a quarterback. Park may never get to his complete potential, but it is a lot higher than anyone we have seen in a long time and probably will for a long time.
Then you have to factor in the point that Campbell has a history of utilizing qbs well.
