Scouting Report: Strengths
- Elite athletic skills -- Made Bruce Feldman's 'Freaks List' at number 91. He wrote: "Bulls strength coach George Courides says he is “by far the most athletic quarterback I’ve ever coached.” Bohanon is built like a tight end and runs like a wideout. He has clocked 21 MPH on the GPS, and in the weight room, his lower body strength is among the top three on the team. This offseason he squatted 550 pounds. "
- Bohanon thrives when he’s extending plays. He’s a loose athlete who should be able to clean up his mechanics at the next level. He’ll hang in and take big hits.
- Good zip and ball placement on the quick slant. Good touch down the seam and on post-corner, flag routes to attack the defense vertically and horizontally.
- He has a compact release and keeps his eyes up in the pocket. He has enough speed and athleticism to threaten with his legs when plays break down.
- Ball placement is a strength. He has the natural instincts to make plays when forced to improvise.
- He must be accounted for when used in the read-option game.
- Bohanon possesses a nice combination of size, athleticism, arm strength and Bohanon sells ball fakes effectively.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- His mechanics are hit-or-miss as Bohanon struggles to remain consistent. His stride is inconsistent, leading to sporadic accuracy.
- Bohanon has a bad habit of fading and throwing off his back foot when the pocket gets muddled, and he is too often all arm when throwing on the move, sacrificing accuracy.
- Bohanon often fails to set his feet; his stride is extremely inconsistent, leading to constant accuracy problems.
