Taylor Elgersma

Big, tall, and strong pocket passer with the body armor made for standing tall in the pocket and surveying the field. Won the Hec Crighton Award, the “Canadian Heisman,” in 2024 at Laurier University (Waterloo, Ontario) as the best player in Canadian college football. Quick, efficient delivery with a slight hitch that does not slow his release speed. Very strong arm – ball pops off his arm. Displays nice touch on deep passes. Not overly athletic or mobile and prefers to stand in the pocket and find the open receiver – limited mobility but is strong and stands tall and willing to take the hit to deliver the pass. Developing field vision and takes too long to process what he sees. Scans the field well and seems to have the mental processing to be developed. Lack of quality playing experience will be biggest hindrance to his development but has a skill set worth developing by a patient NFL team. Similar type of player to Jared Goff (Lions).
