Mendoza just had to pick one and not choke on the pass attempt. But it is good to see that he can take snaps and operate from under center, even if those reps are few and far between.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Mendoza shows under-center competence in Rose Bowl, easing No. 1 pick transition concern.

The source analyzes Mendoza's under-center snap execution in the Rose Bowl against Alabama, a key transition concern for the No. 1 pick prospect. Despite limited reps, Mendoza demonstrated competence operating from under center, including throwing off his back foot with proper hip rotation to maintain velocity and accuracy when receivers were open. The source notes he also showed pocket management by buying extra time with depth on his drop without drifting too far, though the source emphasizes he must prove this on a larger sample size in the NFL.
