Clayton Tune enters 2022 as one of the most experienced quarterbacks in college football, with 31 starts under his belt. Tune’s limited skillset leads me to believe he will be a suitable long-term backup prospect at the next level and could hear his name called in the later rounds of the draft. His decision-making is typically good, but he doesn’t have a defining trait.

Clayton Tune scouting notes
Pros:
- Clayton Tune throws with nice touch but still struggles to throw with touch accurately.
- Fairly accurate quarterback.
- Moves very well through the pocket. Seems to have a natural feel for where pressure and defenders are.
- Very quick, fluid feet. Shifts well into the throw.
- Average movement ability outside of the pocket. However, keeps his eyes downfield, looking for the play to develop/break wide open. Has the ability to throw while on the move well. Can get away from pressure and break tackles.
- Shows some ability to move outside the pocket and improv.
Cons:
- Arm strength is very average. Doesn’t have a lot of drive or velocity on his throws. Doesn’t appear too capable of making deep throws, either.
- Deep ball accuracy is suspect.
- Tries to force the ball into tight windows too much for my liking.
- Has limited progression over his career concerning where his ceiling might be.
