2013 Top College football Players Tajh Boyd

 

Tajh Boyd- Tajh is a 6 foot 1, 225 pound senior quarterback from Clemson University.  Tajh is the undisputed leader of his football team and has the stats to prove it.  Last year he had one of the best years statistically that any quarterback from Clemson has every had.  That is impressive considering the fact that Clemson has had great quarterbacks such as Charlie Whitehurst and Kyle Parker play for them.  Boyd threw for 3,896 yards with 36 touchdowns to 13 interceptions.  Along with his gaudy states throwing the football he is also just as dangerous running as well, he racked up another 514 yards and 10 touchdowns on the ground.

As a senior quarterback Tajh has come a long way, however he has just as much to prove this year as well.  One of the key pieces in Deandre Hopkins is now in the NFL.  I see a lot of really impressive things in Boyd's game that leads me to believe that he will be a very good quarterback at the next level.  The first good area of Boyd's game that I like to see is how he goes through his progression and does not just stare down one receive.  That is something that is going to help Tajh out at the next level because for a lot of quarterbacks that takes quite a few years to learn, Boyd has already learned it.  The other area that I like in Boyd's game is his undeniable leadership skills.  In the biggest games Boyd is able to take his game to another level and lead Clemson to victory more times then not.

I see a quarterback that is going to have a very fine career at the next level.  However, as it is for any good quarterback there are always areas in which improvement can be made.  For Boyd there are many times in which he does not move his feet to his target, instead he relies solely on his arm strength.  This is something that he can get away with at the college level, but at the professional level it will be a completely different story.  The comparison that I see when I look at Boyd is Donovan Mcnabb.  Both of them have/had the ability to beat you with there arms and legs.
