Thankfully, for the most part we kept him contained, but you could see what scouts were impressed about.

In what-have-you-done-for-me-recently recency, I think people have to be less impressed about Taylor after this:

But even after the brain fart, Taylor converted the following 3rd and 28 by running for 30+ yards for a first down. That drive somehow ended with a touchdown.

Regardless, Taylor seems to be a capable starting NFL QB. If Kizer is the next Tyrod Taylor (and drafted in the 3rd round or later), a team will be happy. However, if he's a first rounder, the team who drafts Kizer will want more than the "next Tyrod".
