The West Coast timing and rhythm passing game, with its emphasis on precision and anticipation, would be the primary stylistic choice for Brissett.
Brissett projects as a developmental backup QB in his rookie year, with the ceiling to become a high-end backup or low-end starter with substantial coaching.
An Air Raid or up-tempo spread system would expose his athletic limitations and struggles with processing at a rapid pace.
Brissett's scheme fit is highly dependent on a system that values game management, ball security, and a structured passing game over improvisation or elite arm talent, making him a good fit for the Patriots.
Selected #91 overall in Round 3 of the 2016 NFL Draft by New England Patriots out of NC State.
Relative Athletic Score (Kent Lee Platte) benchmarks combine/pro-day numbers against every measured prospect at the position since 1987. 10.00 is elite; 5.00 is average.
