O'Connell is a pocket passer with enough speed to keep defenses honest and pick up the occasional first down.    

Known Injuries:

Hurt his shoulder and thumb in 2006.    

Combine / Workout Assessment: Coming Soon

Analysis: Scouts love O'Connell’s body type and leadership, which could result in him being taken as high as the fourth round. He still needs to do a lot of work with his mechanics, but that is something a good quarterback coach can help with. Kevin is the type of small-school prospect worth taking a chance on.
