summary

summary

Joey Aguilar is an experienced, aggressive downfield passer with vertical system familiarity and strong production at the Group of Five level prior to transferring into SEC competition. At 6'3", 220 lbs, Aguilar carries prototypical quarterback size with adequate mobility and functional arm strength.

He thrives in spread, tempo-based offenses that emphasize vertical concepts, quick reads, and rhythm throws. Aguilar shows confidence attacking tight windows and pushing the ball outside the numbers.

However, decision-making consistency and turnover management will ultimately define his NFL projection.
