Scouting Report: Strengths
- Sees the field very well when the play breaks down and occasionally changes plays at the line.
- He’s a pure athlete, loose-limbed and flexible. Schlee has the speed to pick up yardage in scramble situations.
- Ball placement is a strength. Schlee has the natural instincts to make plays when forced to improvise.
- He’s good enough as a runner to work read-option plays, keeping back-side defenders in place.
- He’s enough of a threat as a runner to make the read-option game effective.
- Flashes good accuracy to all levels of the field and has the arm strength to make every requisite NFL throw.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Schlee often fails to set his feet; his stride is extremely inconsistent, leading to constant accuracy problems.
- Has struggled with his decision-making and needs to improve his pre-snap recognition skills to read defenses and see blitzes. Doesn't decipher information as quickly as you would like, but does see the entire field and understands coverage.
- His arm strength is decent but less than ideal; Schlee lacks a little zip, and accuracy becomes an issue when he’s unable or unwilling to set his feet.
