"The similarities between him and current Penn State starter Trace McSorley are undeniable. Both are slightly undersized mobile quarterbacks with big arms and a high football IQ," Friedman said. "James Franklin and Joe Moorhead have found a formula that works and Roberson is the type of quarterback that they need for their system.
"On top of all of that, Roberson is well-known in the fertile recruiting grounds of northern New Jersey. He has a lot of connections to many other highly-rated prospects and that should help on the recruiting front."
