TJ Yates, Houston Texans, 152nd Pick, 5th Round, 2011 NFL Draft

Yates, TJ North Carolina 6030 219 5.10
Four-year starter who had a good senior year despite losing his best receiver, Greg Little, to an NCAA suspension. Was very inconsistent as a junior but weathered the storm and helped hold the team together in 2010. A ball control West Coast type quarterback. When he’s hot, he’s very good. Possesses above average athletic ability. Accurate short and medium. Holds the ball up and gets it out of his hand quickly. Average arm strength. Has active feet in the pocket. Ready to pass or sidestep a rush. Will force the ball under pressure at times. Doesn’t flush quickly. Gives the play a chance. For complete report see Ourlads Guide to the NFL Draft.
