2023 Guide: What Ourlads’ NFL Scouting Services said about CLAYTON TUNE:
Houston | H: 6022 W: 216 40: 4.60 A: 3138 H: 0938 W: 7558
Four-year starter, Carrollton, TX. First team All-AAC in 2022. The three-time team captain set a conference record with 40 touchdowns in his final go-round. Finished his career top five in school history across multiple key categories, including wins. Tune is a sizable framed, well put together, classic pocket passer who can drop dimes down the field. Has a knack for putting the ball in a bucket on vertical routes with the pocket awareness plus maneuverability to stay alive under pressure. Has a few shortcomings on the move, but if he can be protected just long enough, he has the skill set to move the ball and score points. Has the experience and has shown the ability to lead his team to a pile of wins. How smoothly he can morph into an NFL-style offense will dictate a lot when it comes to his trajectory and ceiling. Strong base that can stand strong against contact with pass rushers. Densely built, has spent time in the squat rack. Can work his way through reads efficiently. Can subtly move the launch point to buy himself extra time or to improve angles. Excels at putting the ball where it needs to be on downfield throws. Throws a friendly ball. Spins it well and understands touch. Uses multiple velocities and tempos. Needs to clean up his lower body cohesion. Will get erratic with his hips, which elongates his release and will put too much loft on the ball. Ball gets away from him on short to intermediate throws, creating higher odds of turnover-worthy passes. Has thrown 30 interceptions over the last three seasons (35 games). Also needs to tighten up his ball security habits when pass rushers get near him. Lack of true athleticism shows up on the move. A tight-hipped mover with heavy feet. Projects to the backup tier of quarterbacks at the next level but there is a wide spectrum of outcomes when transitioning from a Dana Holgorsen scheme to the NFL.
