I think Kaaya could be a good QB here.

My problem with Kaaya is that he's deceptively unathletic.
To look at the guy, everything about him looks lean, angular and explosive. But then when it comes time to actually move he's feet, he's just a statue.
So when you have a guy that doesn't do a good job of standing in and delivering, nor does he do a good job of using his legs to buy time or create yards, you have to wonder how he could ever succeed at the next level.
Because it would seem that the only way is to give him a line where he's only pressured 2-3 times/gm and frankly that's just not going to happen. Even with an outstanding line, if teams recognize that he can't handle pressure, they'll send the house at him and overload the line while daring him to beat them.
There are things about Kaaya that I like (more accurately, there are moments I like), but he just seems like he's missing an 'oh shit' gear. He has nothing to go to when the maelstrom strikes.
