He is a QB. Speeds and Strength currently both uncapped. Strength less than 40 at the moment so could still cap low. Speed uncapped at 45 (if I remember right)

49 Intelligence but only 42 Teamwork

So the question is can you have an elite QB with only 42 TW. Does that make a.difference or should I change positions and waste the training he already has?

He's also 22 so on the old side, so I don't think changing positions is viable


Yes.
He sound like a great QB if that speed is 44 and not caped. At 45 he has to have at least yellow cap.
TW is valid and it's good to be high <40 for OLs, DLs. for the rest of the positions it's not a really mandatory quality. Other have had QB with 20 TW in Elite.
But, the other thing is that with higher TW, your players gain more training, so he will develop a lot faster.
And your draft pick has perfect INT and great TW to develop a lot faster, even if he is 22 years old.

Wow, this is a raw diamond. Both speed and strength uncapped ! 42TW is quite fine and a lot above average. Any special skills ?

Very happy with my second rounder, was rated in my top 20 and I had him as the 3rd best OL in the draft. Plus I re-rolled a great name for an OL: Lester Blocker. 19 w/ 4* EXP and workable Intel (37) and TW (35). Only down is the Str red at 48.3, but with his young age, I can start moving that up

He is 45.5 and has no cap showing at all?

Strength is 37... No cap... Yet. So we pray 🙏

I just checked the draft list and yes, he does have 45.5 at speed at the moment of the draft. But by not showing at least a yellow "!" at 45.5, it's must be an error. Perhaps Pete will se this post and check.
Most managers will agree that having a fast QB is better than having a strong one. His speed helps him avoid sacks, and if that speed will go to 50, he can be your QB of the future and don't worry to much about the strength part (he's not a OL or DL). He does have 5* TAL, so he would go all the way up to 50 in skills, so that is a great news for you.
The only thing to do know is to train him in the next seasons and get him where you want. I saw only 1 slight disadvantage, his EXP is 2* so expect some INTs until EXP will be at least 4*.
Good luck

Waw,
Just had an interesting 3rd round pick and he was my #1 choice in this round.
DL Iustin Oanea (used to be Bran Carmichael).
I know that he is a little on the old side at 22 years and i'm a little sad about his strength being red at 46.8 and speed uncaped at 35.5 (expected that), but he a perfect DL with 32.6 INT, 50 TW + Sure Tackler and Slippery traits.

So, who want's to make a trade?

My third round pick changed name and now he wants to change club. I agreed with him. You know him as Danny Torrent, FB of 21 years.
