Bronco Leaving BYU for...

We just aren't going to see eye to eye on this one I guess. Agree to disagree

He has less than a 2:1 TD:INT ratio for his career and a terrible completion percentage in the one year he actually played a decent amount.

I guess you could argue if he could have stayed healthy, he would have improved enough in the passing game to get drafted, but if he had just maintained numbers he was putting up when he played, no way he gets drafted as a QB.
 
Fish has his homer glasses on to think that healthy Taysom is that much better than Wilson. They are both disappointing and best to be forgotten.

I disagree. One was in the conversation for heisman. The other was not. Even though taysom played for a lowly non p5 conference team with non p5 conference talent around him. I mean he was throwing to non p5 receivers, handing off to non p5 running backs and having non p5 o-lineman block for him yet still was allot higher thought of nationally.

As for the nfl.... Im just the messenger. I hear broadcast announcers talking about taysom coming back to byu, transferring, or going for the nfl as his options even after missing the whole year with an injury.
Wilson in the nfl? Lololol. Read posts from ute fans sometime. They are always talking about how if the utes had a decent qb that they would be so much better.

Game after game ute fans talk **** about wilson then taysom gets mentioned and suddenly ute fans think Wilson is good again.

I'm not the one being a homer here.

Also, ute fans are happy to see Wilson go and are looking forward to not having him around. Sounds like a really good qb

Byu fans have a really good qb already on the team currently and yet would welcome taysom back still.

Taysom was carving up nebraska in the passing game before he got hurt, dude has just as good of an arm as his legs...

Again, the utes had their best season yet, a fantastic defense, a superstar running back, were ranked #3 overall and still wilson is not wanted by the nfl..... He isn't even wanted by ute fans. What a stud
 
Ask any byu fan what they think of taysom and they will tell he is a badass mother ****er..... Without the cussing. And before you say that is just because they are homers, let me remind you that we all HATED riley nelson
 
Here is link to a draft prospect ranking list. You can filter it to show the qb position only.
https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/p...nkings/2016/QB

Taysom Hill is a 25 year old who missed amost 3 years due to injury, travis wilson just came off a healthy season on his best team that he ever played for and yet he is still ranked 157 spots (overall) behind taysom hill and 8 spots behind taysom in the qb rankings.

Im quite certain that a healthy taysom hill would be ranked quite a bit higher than he is.

An AFC director of scouting believes BYU senior QB Taysom Hill (foot) has NFL potential.
"I was doing some background work on Taysom Hill and other BYU prospects the other day and, man, that guy is a player," he said. "I had never really looked at him very closely, but he had pro size and a pro arm." Hill suffered a season-ending Lisfranc injury in September. The scout isn't alone in this opinion. NFL.com's Lance Zierlein wrote that Hill has "NFL size, good arm strength, underrated touch and above-average athleticism." Hill has suffered season-ending injuries in three of his four years on campus. Hill could either rehabilitate his stock by returning to school, jump to the NFL and hope for the best, or retire from the sport. He reportedly has a cushy job offer in hand.
Damn those injuries.

Thoughts on Wilson from the same page: Utah senior QB Travis Wilson "comes with upside but needs work from the ground up," TFY Draft Insider Tony Pauline observes.
"For a signal caller that looks the part, more often than not Wilson doesn’t play to it. Measuring 6-feet/7-inches and 220lbs with a decent arm, Wilson throws with inconsistent mechanics and makes questionable decisions," Pauline writes. The Utah signal caller has had an up and down year for the Utes, completing 62.4% of his passes for 2,024 yards with a 13/10 TD/INT ratio on the season.
