Jeff Driskel of Louisiana Tech Is Selected By The 49ers With The #207 Pick Of The 2016 NFL Draft

From Florida to Louisiana to now California, Jeff Driskel will continue his career in the NFL.

After a tumultuous college career that ended with a stunning senior season, Jeff Driskel will continue his football career out west in San Francisco.

Driskel is a dual threat quarterback. His 40 yard dash time of 4.56 in the combine was lightning quick. Combine that speed with his size and you have yourself quite the prototypical athlete under center. Although he is quick, Driskel’s speed was most used to execute designed runs rather than to extend the play.

Overall Driskel is an efficient quarterback.
