Scouting Report: Strengths
- Gets the ball out quickly, making ·splitsecond decisions. Good short to intermediate level accuracy, demonstrating the ball placement to allow receivers to run after the catch.
- Mentally, Bachmeier was able to make checks at the line of scrimmage and manage the run game.
- Athletic quarterback who is a threat to leave the pocket and gain positive yardage at any time. Possesses very good vision balance, elusiveness and deceptive speed and power as a runner.
- Ball placement is a strength. Bachmeier has the natural instincts to make plays when forced to improvise.
- Physically, he is a natural athlete who plays with the balance and light feet to float in the pocket.
- 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.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Too often fails to give receivers a chance to make a play after the catch. High completion percentage padded by many quick screens.
- Strong enough arm to make basic throws but has only average overall arm strength.
- He’s clearly more effective when on the move, and many of his reads were half-field.
