Tyrod Taylor (age: 32)

Taylor always seems to find himself at or near the end of any quarterback-needy team’s list of potential offseason targets. It’s a credit to him and what he’s been able to flash as a starter in limited opportunities, but he isn’t a long-term answer and is more of a bridge quarterback who can start a few games until a prized first-rounder is ready to take over. If the Bears sign someone like Taylor, get your popcorn ready. A move up the 2021 NFL draft board is likely coming next.
