Well if Saban doesn't trust him on 3rd and long in college, I don't see him succeeding in the NFL in similar circumstances. He's mobile but he doesn't have great pocket awareness. He doesn't do a very good job progressing through his reads and keeping the play alive. He under throws most of his deep balls, even the one to Cooper in the SECCG, the only reason it was on point was because Cooper gave up on the route then still ran it down in stride.
He very often gets the ball out late in routes.
He's still better than 90% of the QBs in college, and he's been great at Bama but he isn't anywhere close to being a capable NFL starter.

In McCarron's defense, Cooper thought he had been sacked. That's why he slowed down. Then, when he saw the ball launched into the air, he sped back up and took it in stride.
