<snip>
Braxton Miller
Pros: Big-game experience, dynamic ability in the run game when plays break down.
Cons: How healthy is his surgically repaired throwing shoulder, and can it absorb the pounding Miller will take? By the time he steps on the field in September, it will have been 21 months since he last took a snap in a game.
Cardale Jones
Pros: Big arm and deceptive run game ability. A fearless competitor.
Cons: He has started all of three games, and played with the benefit (see: safety net) of tailback Ezekiel Elliott’s huge postseason forcing defenses to play more base coverages instead of mixed, multiple looks. How will he respond to adversity?
J.T. Barrett
Pros: Not the NFL prospect Jones is, but the best dual threat of the group. Made significant strides as a thrower in the second half of the season (see: at Michigan State, at Minnesota in a snowstorm), and is clearly the best passing option of the three. Would have rushed for 1,000 yards (938 yards, 11 TDs in 2014) had he not been injured in late November.
