Tyler Van Dyke comparison

[itsacanething]

i have no idea who he looks like. sometimes i see Toretta, Vinny, Big Ben, Rivers, Ryan but he definitely has the most complete set of tools that this school has seen since the QB U days.

Decent chance Enos isn’t with Miami by the time this kid is in position to start anyways.

Gonna take a little more than one good game against UL’s110+ ranked passing defense to think he magically figured things out.

Among current and recent NFL QBs, when I watch TVD he most reminds me of Ryan Tannehill. Big, strong arm, not always the prettiest throwing motion but still effective with a quick release, and while not quick and twitchy, he's got more speed and athleticism than you'd think by looking at him.

reminds me a bit of sam bradford

Bradford was one of best college QBs I can remember watching.

Same. But I think Bradford’s throwing motion and build are closer to TVD than the other comps

It won't be long before we have a starting freshman QB and we're all saying how he reminds us of Tyler Van Dyke.

So good. So smart. The guy was a surgeon in college.

I thought he'd be just a beast in the league

 

[NorthernVirginiaCane]

He is such a big guy. I would hope they can incorporate some QB runs under center for a yard if needed.

Kirk Cousins.


Funny enough it was the comp I see they have for him on 247 as well

 

[Stylie]

Brady/ Elway/ Maholmes hybrid

 

[Canesfrom]

Love he spots the single coverage and just puts it in a place our WRs can make plays… haven’t had that in forever. Kaaya was best with out scheming teams, but didn’t really let coley and Richards just win one on ones as much as TVD

 

[CT Cane 44]

Reminds me of Phillip Rivers a little bit. Not Matt Ryan but it’s whatever. Kid has game

This Thread:

Tyler Van Dyke is every 6'3"-6'4" 220lb+ white quarterback with above average athleticism ever from All-Pro to college starter. He is all of them.

DISCLAIMER: No one is saying he will have the same kind of career. This is simply a comparison of traits, background and playing style.

With that said, there are a lot of similarities between Tyler Van Dyke and Matt Ryan. The main difference I see is high school offense, since Matt Ryan played in a triple-option. But both guys are big, athletic pro-style passers with similar offers out of high school.

Billboard on Dixie right after this season. It’s been a minute since we heard heisman talk about a qb
