Jordan Ta’amu isn’t going to hear his name called during the first night of the 2019 NFL Draft on Thursday, but the Ole Miss football product seems like the ideal developmental quarterback who could one day be viewed as the steal of the draft.
With the Rebels, Ta’amu was remarkably efficient during his year and a half as the team’s starting quarterback, completing 64-percent of his passes across his 19 game career with 5600 yards and 30 touchdowns to just 12 interceptions.
It’s fair to throw the caveat in there that Ta’amu was working with one of college football’s best receiving corps, buoyed by three who are going to be selected in the 2019 draft, two of which could hear their names called during the first round.
