Scouting Report: Strengths
- Very confident passer and shows good accuracy and feel when in rhythm. Showed better ball placement from past years and throws very catchable passes. Puts too much air in some of his throws and needs to show a lower trajectory on deep throws.
- Flashes good accuracy to all levels of the field and has the arm strength to make every requisite NFL throw.
- Physically, Card is a natural athlete who plays with the balance and light feet to float in the pocket.
- Picks up yards with his legs when needed.
- Gets the ball out quickly, making ·splitsecond decisions. Good short to intermediate level accuracy, demonstrating the ball placement to allow receivers to run after the catch.
- Ball placement is a strength. Card has the natural instincts to make plays when forced to improvise.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Very ordinary arm, though there is room for improvement with better technique. Lacks strength to stretch the field horizontally or vertically. Throws too many passes flat-footed or without his feet being set.
- Has struggled with his decision-making and needs to improve his pre-snap recognition skills to read defenses and see blitzes. Doesn't decipher information as quickly as you would like, but does see the entire field and understands coverage.
- Card has to clean up his throwing motion when he’s on the move. Card was often too quick to pull the ball down and take off, and Card seemed to have trouble sifting through moving parts in the middle of the field.
