As a passer, he was just above average. I can't see him as an NFL QB...

...because you have to be very, very accurate. Some famous NFL coach (I can't remember who) basically said you can't teach accuracy in the NFL. Either a QB comes in with it, or they won't make it.

I think Taysom has a legit shot at making the Packers

Disappointing is probably better word. Just meant awful in how high expectations were after Nebraska game.

Many of his passes were "awful," just not his season.

Taysom is a career .582 passer. That accuracy would have ranked 29th in the NFL last year.

You're joking right?

No. Just pointing out that Taysom isn't an accurate throwing QB.

Not even close.

Good point. Taysom wasn't really at riley level for much of last year.

Backcountry

4/30/17 9:36am

Riley is debatably the worst quarterback in the last 40 years at BYU, Taysom is debatable a top 10 all time BYU qb

That's simply not true.

The numbers say otherwise.

Taysom is 5th all time in offensive production at BYU against a harder schedule

Taysom is a physical specimen. Very glad we had him.

If he's patient and willing to stick around on a practice squad he has a shot.

Their 3rd/practice squad QB is s throwaway who was released by multiple teams

Chazz Reinhold

It was the wrong call because there wasn't a throw

I'mBatman

4/30/17 2:57pm

I thought coaches said it was a run pass option and Taysom chose to run

NotOfYourFaithBYUFAN

4/30/17 5:10pm

Nope it was a qb draw all the way without a pass option

I'mBatman

Taysom can get cut and you'd

John Beck wasn't good enough to make it in the NFL, nor was Max Hall

In the NFL you have to be accurate, throw before player is open. Thats not TH
