Assessing the talent: per Scout- Nunes has all the right measurables, good size, tremendous arm strength, pocket presence, toughness and leadership. Needs to continue to refine his release and work on making it more fluid.

I don't think we will be too picky when it comes to speed with this guy (plus 40 times are overrated)... He is one of the best QBs in the 2009 class.

 

His game film shows him as a pocket passer also

possible 2 qb system then? or maybe a slow change to something else done offensively? though didn't watson have a bunch of drop back passers at CU?

Noticed the Scouts Inc. wrap-up of the Cal-Berkeley Regional Elite 11/Nike camp featured Nunes:

 

Nunes living up to the hype

Top Performer

 

Elite 11: Josh Nunes (6-4, 211), Quarterback

(Upland, Calif.)

Nunes proved worthy of his Under Armour All-American status with a great showing both Friday and Saturday. Aside from his striking arm strength, Nunes certainly looked good on the hoof and passed the eyeball test physically with his 6-foot-4, well-built frame.

 

Known more for his pure pocket passing skills, the ESPN 150 Watch List prospect showed good footwork and the ability to throw on the run with velocity and accuracy. Nunes flashed his powerful arm throughout the day in various drills and demonstrated he could make all the college throws, particularly the difficult deep-out route. What was impressive in person was his ability to apply touch or zip depending on the throw and his overall RPMs on the football.

 

We would have liked to have seen him drive the ball more downfield at times, but he got rid of the ball quickly and his delivery described everything about his two-day performance -- it was very smooth.
