Strengths
Cunningham plays with a strong level of agility, speed, and explosiveness. He is a great scrambler and can thrive with systems that have both RPO's along with play action plays. Processes smooth mechanics and can release the football quickly which helps his delivery throwing the ball. He is accurate when throwing the ball short, intermediate and even deep down the field. He does not have a rocket arm, but has solid arm strength. Plays with a competitive drive and is a great leader. He has had a solid level of production at Louisville and can improvise quickly. He has great instincts and can make adjustments before the ball is snapped.
Weaknessess
Could do better avoiding pressure as he takes a lot of hits at the college level. Especially as durability was a concern dealing with a lot of injuries last season. His ball placement can be inconsistent at times, but he has the ability to make a big play. However last season he showed signs of regression as he was very inaccurate throwing deeper balls. Must improve with his footwork as it can get very sloppy most of the time and is not the most poise in the pocket. He does not have good field vision and can miss opportunities.
