Weighted On-Target Percentage: Drew Allar enters Senior season needing a massive leap
While some are high on the Penn State quarterback, there are plenty of holes in his game that need to be worked through before considering him a legitimate first round player
Penn State quarterback Drew Allar was reportedly close to entering his name into the 2025 NFL Draft, so where does that leave his stock with the 2026 NFL Draft now 10 months away?
The Northeast Ohio product is coming off of a season where the Nittany Lions fell one game short of the National Championship game. Allar threw for nearly 3,400 yards, 24 touchdowns, and eight interceptions in 2024 while completing just over 66% of his passes.
Overall, I am less than in love with Allar and tend to think there is a reason that he ended up returning to school over making the leap to the NFL. As discussed often, quarterbacks have no real reason to leave early anymore if they are not 100% certain they can cash in with a ton of guaranteed money when returning to around $4 million is on the table.
Here, we will discuss some of Allar’s strengths and weaknesses periferally while primarily focusing on his ball placement and accuracy profile. Weighted On-Target Percentage is the name of the game as always, and we’ve got another summer scouting picture painted with Allar’s.
