Jake Fromm, without question, left his mark on Georgia football in his three years playing between the hedges for the Bulldogs.
Fromm decided to forgo his senior season in Athens and enter the 2020 NFL Draft. The question now is how will his skillset transition the pros.
Former NFL quarterback, and current ESPN NFL analyst Dan Orlovsky had some great things to say about Fromm on Friday.
In a tweet, Orlovsky broke down Fromm’s connect-the-dot ability with some film. Connecting the dots is basically when a quarterback reads his options and how the opposing defense is playing each of his receivers, one option, or one dot at a time.
Plenty of QB’s have “their trait/traits” that make them the player they are. @FrommJake separating skill is “he connects the dots as good as anyone” 👇🏼👇🏼 tells and shows ya what that means! If you’re a @Colts or @Saints or @Patriots fan hes the perfect fit! @UGAfootballLive pic.twitter.com/otseWkFQwd

Orlovsky complemented Fromm and said that “plenty of quarterbacks have ‘their trait/traits’ that make them the player they are.” and his is his decision making.
Fromm has never been a flashy quarterback that goes for home-run balls or the biggest play. He’s smart, manages games, and gets the job done by picking apart defenses.
Orlovsky mentioned that the Indianapolis Colts, New Orleans saints and New England Patriots could all be great fits for Fromm to land, come draft day. He is a quarterback that would work very well in one of those systems, as these teams are in the market for a new franchise QB.
Future Hall of Fame QBs Drew Brees (Saints) and Philip Rivers (Colts) would be perfect mentors to Fromm for the next two seasons. Tom Brady left the Patriots for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but Fromm would be in good hands in New England with head coach Bill Belichick. He would also be reunited with former teammates Sony Michel, David Andrews and Isaiah Wynn, who all play for the Patriots.
