Tate Forcier

Forcier struggled at times to adjust to his first season as a starting quarterback in the Big Ten, throwing 10 interceptions versus only 13 touchdowns, but finished the year strong and recorded 2,290 passing yards. Despite taking his lumps at times, Forcier is an excellent fit as a dual-threat playmaker in Rich Rodriquez’s spread offense, displaying the ability to make plays on the run outside of the pocket. He will need to improve his accuracy, but is still growing as a passer and gaining confidence and command of the offense. Michigan’s offensive outlook depends largely on his play.
