If you’re a big, strong, fearless quarterback coming out of the NFL Draft and happen to be tough as nails, chances are you’re going to find yourself compared to future Hall of Fame quarterback and Pittsburgh Steelers legend Ben Roethlisberger.
That’s where Miami (Fla.) quarterback and possible No. 1 overall pick Cam Ward finds himself, thanks to the comparison made by Pro Football Focus draft analyst Trevor Sikkema.
In a piece for PFF.com Thursday morning making comparisons for the top 20 prospects on his board, Sikkema linked Ward to Roethlisberger due to his unorthodox style, mobility, and fearlessness pushing the ball down the field.
