Zabransky is undersized for a NFL signal caller. At six-foot-two and 219 pounds, he’s not quite tall enough to see passing lanes. He’s a quarterback who can make things happen while in the pocket or on the run. He shows fairly good speed and has a decent arm. But sometimes he tries to force the ball when he shouldn’t. Zabransky needs to develop more patience and has to learn to read defensive schemes more adroitly. He must also cut down on his tendency to throw interceptions.
