Ourlads' Profile:
2019 Guide: What Ourlads' Scouting Services said about NICK FITZGERALD: Mississippi State, 6045 226 4.67. Three year starter and team captain from Richmond Hill, GA. An effective run/pass option quarterback who was better as a runner than a drop back passer. Has better than average arm strength but accuracy and decision making are off. His career completions percentage is 54.2%. As a senior it was 51.6%. Yards per passing attempt was 6.6 over his career. Started 37 games in 45 games played. The SEC’s all-time leading rusher at quarterback. Set 13 school records and four SEC career records rushing the ball. A tough kid who can run the ball and take a hit. Arm strength isn’t an issue. Accuracy and ball placement to the receivers down the field is erratic. Flashes a few big time throws but lacks consistency. He played in a simplistic passing offensive scheme. A team may draft him late as a situational piece of their offense. 2018 stats: 145/281, 1767 yds, 51.6%, 16 TD, 9 INT, 1121 yds rushing, 13 TD, 116.8 QB rating. Ball velocity 57 mph. OSR:5/16. Seventh round/PFA. (A-31 7/8, H-9 3/4, SS-DNP, VJ-29.5).
