Manning embodies the prototypical modern quarterback. The talented nephew of Peyton and Eli Manning enters his junior season at the University of Texas, hoping to capture that elusive National Championship. Standing 6’3″ and 230 pounds, the junior combines elite arm talent with dangerous dual-threat athleticism.

Entering his second season as the full-time starter, Manning remains the focal point of Steve Sarkisian’s high-powered Texas offense, which is uniquely designed to maximize his championship-level potential. While he did create many explosive plays, Manning finished with a 61.4% completion rate last season, which was good for 87th in the country. ProFootballFocus.com has him ranked 46th nationally in adjusted completion percentage, but with the new additions to the offensive line, that should increase. Raising his floor on routine, on-target throws should be a major focus.
