Jameis has shown the ability to throw WR's in stride on the deep pass. I like to call them rainbows. Probably better than most at this level.

Now his intermediate (short pass) accuracy could use a little work no doubt.
There s no doubt that he has a strong arm. When I refer to no touch I was talking about his over throws to the check down receiver. I think his long distance accuracy is great. His medium and short game needs less of a strong arm and more "touch" to make it a catchable ball. Great points everyone!

I agree I’d like to see him be…smoother on his check down and short throws. I think part of his issue was the idea of NOT throwing an INT was so firmly in his head that he hesitated (maybe avoided) throws he could have made downfield for fear of the turnover and did a “regret” check down throw he didn’t like. Hopefully with the potential receiving targets we have he will make those throws and be more comfortable when he has to take what the D gives him.

I think he throws too hard from time to time and it messes with his accuracy. It seems to be an issue for African American QB’s. Winston, Newton, Vick, etc. He’ll be fine though. I think his best years are ahead of him.
