Draft Profile: Bio
Born and raised in Cypress, Texas, Weigman emerged as one of the state's most electrifying dual-threat quarterbacks at Bridgeland High School. A gifted multi-sport athlete who garnered serious baseball interest, Weigman's gridiron excellence culminated in his senior year when he accounted for 34 touchdowns and nearly 2,900 total yards while leading Bridgeland to the 6A Region II championship game. His decorated prep career included District Offensive Player of the Year honors and selection to the Elite-11 Finals, establishing him as Rivals' and ESPN's top-ranked quarterback prospect nationally.

After signing with Texas A&M as a five-star recruit, Weigman showed tantalizing flashes across three seasons in College Station. His collegiate career got off to a promising start when he set the Aggies' true freshman passing record with 338 yards against Ole Miss. The redshirt sophomore particularly excelled in 2023, completing 68.9% of his passes for 979 yards and an 8:2 TD-INT ratio before a season-ending injury. His 91.9 PFF offensive grade ranked fourth among FBS quarterbacks with 100+ dropbacks. The 2024 season proved challenging - after struggling in the opener against Notre Dame (12-of-30, 100 yards), he missed three games with an AC joint sprain in his throwing shoulder. Though he returned to lead an impressive 41-10 win over #9 Missouri, completing 18-of-22 passes for 276 yards, inconsistent play led to his eventual benching in favor of Marcel Reed during an October win over LSU. This prompted his decision to transfer to Houston, where he'll have two years of eligibility remaining under Willie Fritz's offense.

Despite battling injuries and inconsistent play that limited him to 15 career appearances, Weigman has maintained an impressive 19:7 TD-INT ratio while completing 60% of his passes for 2,694 yards.
Scouting Report: Strengths
  • Lightning-quick release with snap velocity - can drive throws with authority even when mechanics aren't perfect, especially impressive on deep outs and seam routes
  • Natural athlete with surprising straight-line speed and agility to extend plays and pick up chunks on the ground when plays break down
  • Shows excellent touch layering balls over linebackers on intermediate routes, particularly up the seams where he demonstrates consistent ball placement
  • Fearless in the pocket and willing to stand tall to deliver strikes while taking hits, displaying the competitive toughness scouts love
  • Consistently smooth footwork in his drops with good weight transfer when operating from clean pockets, allowing him to drive balls accurately
  • Creative improviser who can adjust arm angles and create throwing lanes on the move while keeping his eyes downfield
  • Makes quick decisions and delivers with timing and anticipation on RPO concepts, showing comfort in that aspect of modern offenses
  • High football IQ evident in pre-snap recognition and ability to work through progressions when given time
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
  • Durability is a major concern after missing significant time with foot and shoulder injuries in consecutive seasons
  • Inconsistent field vision causes him to miss lurking defenders and force throws into coverage when pressured
  • Sawed-off throwing motion puts extra stress on his elbow and leads to some accuracy issues, particularly when throwing on the move
  • Needs to develop better awareness of blind side pressure and recognition of slot blitzes pre-snap
  • Arm strength is good but not elite - deep balls tend to hang and sideline throws can lack ideal zip at times
Scouting Report: Summary
Weigman profiles as an intriguing developmental prospect with some starting upside if he can stay healthy and iron out his mechanical inconsistencies. His natural playmaking ability, quick release, and comfort operating both from the pocket and on the move will intrigue teams looking for a modern dual-threat quarterback. While the durability concerns and technical refinements needed in his game likely push him into Day 3 territory, Weigman's ceiling remains extremely high if he can put it all together.

The ideal fit would be a patient organization with an established veteran starter where Weigman can spend 1-2 years developing while cleaning up his throwing motion and building up his frame. Teams that heavily utilize RPO concepts and moving pockets would maximize his current skill set. His combination of athleticism, arm talent, and processing speed when comfortable make him an appealing project with legitimate starter upside down the line if developed properly.

Weigman represents one of the more fascinating evaluation cases in recent years. The former five-star recruit and nation's top-ranked quarterback prospect has shown just enough flashes to remind scouts why he was so highly regarded coming out of high school. His elite-level high school tape, which earned him comparisons to Dak Prescott, showcased a dynamic playmaker with legitimate dual-threat ability and the arm talent to make every throw. While injuries and inconsistent play have prevented him from living up to that lofty potential in college, the raw tools that made him such a coveted recruit still tantalize. With two years of eligibility remaining at Houston, Weigman has a prime opportunity to tap into that tremendous upside in Willie Fritz's quarterback-friendly system. For NFL teams, he represents the classic high-risk, high-reward prospect - a former blue-chip recruit with untapped potential who could emerge as a draft day steal if he can finally put all the pieces together.

*Percentile Ranking in Player's Position Group (NFL Combine Historical Data): This percentile reflects how a player's specific statistics rank in comparison to historical performances at the NFL Combine, specifically within their position group. A higher percentile indicates a better performance. For instance, being in the 90th percentile for a particular stat means the player outperformed 90% of their peers in that category.

*Similarity Percentage: This percentage is calculated based on a comprehensive analysis of various factors, including height, weight, 40-yard dash times, on-field performance statistics, and overall player rating. The analysis is conducted against our database of draft prospects from 2021 to 2023. This similarity score helps in evaluating how closely a current prospect aligns with past prospects. It is important to note, however, that this score reflects similarities based on college production and attributes, and does not account for eventual success or performance in the NFL.
