Having seen Persa a few times in spring and fall scrimmages in addition to his game action, I don't think much of a transformation will be necessary. I think Persa already has most of the tools necessary, and I'm fairly certain he would have been good enough to win us games this year had he been the starter all year.
He'll have some different strengths and weaknesses compared to Kafka, but I think the potential there is huge.
I think the accuracy, zip, ability to make plays on the move, and certainly the ability to run will all be there.
The question is whether he'll get to be as good as Kafka was at reading what was happening and throwing quickly to the right receiver. Given that the offensive line should be even better next year, Persa should have every opportunity to develop those skills.
I could be wrong, but this is coming from someone who said all along Kafka had huge potential. :-)

Yep.
