"battled consistency as a passer"

Yeah, I'd say that's a good way of putting it.

Whatever GM drafts him and Levi’s in the 1st round this will be fired in less than 2 years.

agreed, and I'm not getting the love for Levis. Yes, he has an NFL QB body, but I didn't see the appeal for him this year. I sure as hell wouldn't spend a high 1st round pick on the guy.
