Steelers QB Chris Oladokun

Best trait: Ability to scramble and keep his eyes downfield

Chris Oladokun is an interesting football player. He can really impress on film at times wi his confidence maneuvering around in the pocket. He’s at his element when he can roll out and extend the play — keeping his eyes downfield in the process.

Worst trait: Level of competition, stature

However, part of the reason Oladokun is able to buy so much time is due to the level of competition he faced in the Missouri Valley Conference. He simply was not going against any future NFL players.

Oladokun also doesn’t have ideal size or spectacular traits to work with as anything more than just a scout-team QB3. At 6’1” and 213 pounds, the South Dakota State QB is undersized for the position and is a good, but not great, athlete. Oladokun is a former transfer from South Florida who will turn 25 years old during his rookie season.

The Steelers certainly added some interesting players to their rosters. It will be interesting to see if their best and worst traits follow them to the NFL stage or if they will carve a new path.
