They may look at QB and see the full picture.  They do what they’re told, they go through the progressions properly, the run the plays consistently that come in and they make good adjustments. They work hard in practice and they have shown in scrimmage they are accurate or have a powerful arm. They are quick to learn a playbook. They are good motivators.  They don’t miss practice, they get there early and they work late.  I believe we don’t know the half of judging potential, if us fans could project players that good we’d have long ago been working for a top tier football program. It’s fun to look at a stat sheet, but’s in many cases it’s only half of the story.These are all intangibles not on a stat sheet but a confident HC may recognize similar attributes from previous successes. He essentially knows that just because he threw 19TDs and 24INT there is unrealized potential.  The rest of us fans scream bloody murder. Then Brett Favre emerges and becomes iron man and takes over games</blockquote>
