Arizona Cardinals: Is Jake Coker the favorite?

Is Jake Coker the favorite for the Arizona Cardinals third quarterback spot?

Undrafted free agent Jake Coker from the University of Alabama is expected to battle incumbent third stringer Matt Barkley this summer for the right to be Drew Stanton’s back up. Given the competitors, is Coker the favorite to win the job?

On paper, Coker is an excellent fit for Bruce Arians’ offense. At 6’5″ he has the ideal height that Arians likes to see in his quarterbacks. Tthe biggest thing in Coker’s favor that sets him apart from Barkley is his ability throw the deep ball with accuracy.
