Scouting Report: Strengths
- From a physical standpoint, a modern quarterback with a sturdy build able to take a hit.
- Good (not elite) arm strength and can easily make all the NFL throws with effortless deep passes.
- Picks up yards with his legs when needed.
- Centeio has plus arm strength and a willingness and ability to throw receivers open, as well as good ball placement out to intermediate levels.
- He’s good enough as a runner to work read-option plays, keeping back-side defenders in place.
- Possesses an NFL arm. Gets the ball from one hash to the opposite sideline in a hurry. Has the zip to hit tight windows on short and intermediate throws.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Centeio has a bad habit of fading and throwing off his back foot when the pocket gets muddled, and Centeio is too often all arm when throwing on the move, sacrificing accuracy.
- Sails throws to either sideline; receivers make him look good with acrobatic catches. Back-foot throws are not accurate. Sometimes trusts his arm too much, trying to stick passes late in the play or when off-balance.
- Marginal height, which will prove more of a detriment in an offense that asks him to drop back from center more often.
