Big-armed, dual-threat depth piece with proven college flashes
McLaughlin brings a **strong frame, athletic traits, and legit rushing ability** to Jacksonville State, with earlier college production at NC State showing he can move the ball through the air and with his legs. In Jacksonville State’s 2022 stats, he was a limited but efficient option in spurts, which suggests he is more of a **situational playmaker** than a volume starter right now. The appeal is upside: size, mobility, and enough arm talent to create explosive plays, but his value depends on whether a team wants a developmental QB with upside rather than a polished, high-volume passer.
