Did anybody know Taysom Hill could do those things before he did them?
No. He was a guy who did a little, then showed a willingness to do a little more, then kept adding to his skills over time. This expectation that guys come pre-fabricated and fully formed with demonstrated evidence is half-baked. After measurements and intangibles, the only thing left is to imagine possibilities. Daily wouldn’t make it at the next level expecting to solely play QB, the way Taysom thought he might all the way up to the point when the team changed his position to drive the point home: “throwing is one of many things you’ll do on this team.”
