That's old and that report is more fitting to when he started the season. He made a good amount of strides throughout the season and became a better QB, the final product being what we've seen in the playoffs. He's not dominating these defenses but he's absolutely playing well against NFL talent.
I wouldn't be surprised at all to see in him go in the early 2nd or late 1st if he has a good combine/senior bowl. But he's not a rookie starter. He should definitely sit for a year.
