Senior Bowl Notebook | TCU WR Jack Bech, Ole Miss QB Jaxson Dart & More
More Than a System QB
Ole Miss quarterback Jaxson Dart, although he played at a high level in the SEC, feels like he’s been miscast as a system quarterback.
“I played in the Wing T for three years, I was in a huddle,” he said. “Every play I took a snap under center for three years. I went to corner Canyon High School [in Draper, UT] for my senior year and that was more spread. I went to USC my first year where I played in the air raid. Then my sophomore year, transferred to Ole Miss, got introduced to the RPO game, hardcore play action, deep shots, top-down reads. Me and [offensive coordinator Charlie [Weis Jr.] and [Lane] Kiffin would talk about how we’re a tempo, pro-style team. So, quite honestly, I feel like I’ve kind of done it all.
“I’ve had success everywhere I’ve been. It shows I’m adaptable and can make things happen in whatever offense that I play in.”
Dart leaves college with several of the Rebels’ records including passing yards, 300-yard passing games, rushing yards by a QB and most wins by a starting quarterback. He also led the SEC last season with a 69.3% completion percentage, 4,279 yards and 329.2 yards per game. His 180.7 pass efficiency rating and 10.8 yards per attempt led the FBS.
Dart mentioned three quarterbacks as the most influential to his game and they all, coincidentally, have participated in the Senior Bowl — Josh Allen, Baker Mayfield and Jalen Hurts.
“Those are three guys that I love to watch and how much passion they play the game with,” he said.
The Senior Bowl is in full swing, and there are plenty of standout performances to take note of. Here are some players who have caught the eye of scouts and analysts:
1. TCU WR Jack Bech – Bech has been turning heads with his crisp route running and strong hands. He has shown the ability to make tough catches in traffic and has displayed good separation from defenders. Bech could be a sleeper pick in the upcoming draft.
2. Ole Miss QB Jaxson Dart – Dart has been impressive in practice, showing off his strong arm and quick release. He has been accurate on his throws and has shown good decision making under pressure. Dart could be a name to watch as a potential late-round steal.
3. Georgia CB Derion Kendrick – Kendrick has been locking down receivers in practice, using his physicality and speed to disrupt passing lanes. He has shown good instincts and ball skills, making him a potential early-round pick.
4. Utah RB Tavion Thomas – Thomas has been showcasing his power and explosiveness in practice, breaking tackles and showing good burst through the hole. He has also been effective as a pass catcher out of the backfield, making him a versatile weapon for any offense.
Overall, the Senior Bowl has been a showcase for some of the top talent in college football, and these players have certainly made the most of their opportunity to shine. Keep an eye on these names as the draft approaches.
