Canfield’s Stock on the Rise

After entering this year’s pre-draft workout season as a late round to undrafted free agent prospect Oregon State’s Sean Canfield’s stock continues to rise.

Teams were not terribly high on Canfield due to him only having one good season as a starting quarterback and an inability to hold onto the job throughout his tenure at OSU.  Things seemed to click for Canfield during his senior season though as he completed 67% of his passes and threw 21 touchdowns against just 7 interceptions.

The knock on Canfield is he tends to not play well under pressure, but, that can be said about a lot of quarterbacks.

He made a good accounting of himself at the combine and reportedly wowed scouts at the OSU Pro Day this week.  They were especially impressed with his accuracy throwing deep out routes which is one of the tougher throws to make in the NFL.

While Canfield will never be a top pick due to a lack of extended consistency at the college level he has likely earned himself a late-mid-round selection in the draft.
