Reminds Us Of

C.J. Stroud

QB / 6-3 / 214
Ohio StateOhio State · HS Class of 2020
Houston2023 Draft · Rnd 1 · Pick 2

Trae Taylor's physical tools and high level of passing skill remind us of CJ Stroud. Taylor was a more established prospect for much of his recruitment with Stroud emerging right before his senior season. Both had great showings at the Elite 11 Finals and were pass-first quarterbacks with the ability to deliver with accuracy downfield.

Trae Taylor Scouting Summary
Charles Power
06/02/26

Well-rounded, polished signal caller with one of the stronger arms in the 2027 cycle. Measured at a shade under 6-foot-3, 200 pounds with 9.25-inch hands prior to his senior season. Brings a combination of high-end arm talent and refinement to the table. Has a whippy release that uncoils quickly to generate fast arm action. Added arm strength in the off-season prior to his senior year. Can drive the football to all areas of the field with palpable zip. Rips throws out to the far hash and up the seam. Throws a tight spiral that cuts through the wind. Has proven to be accurate in multiple settings. Hyper-trained and plays with a good level of consistency as a passer. Passed for over 3,300 yards and 36 touchdowns against 5 interceptions as a junior. Tabbed as Rivals MVP at the Elite 11 Finals in the off-season prior to his senior season. Shows the ability to extend plays, but at his most comfortable when working from within structure. Improved rushing ability and overall athleticism from sophomore to junior year. Default arm slot is in the ¾ to side arm range. Level of improvement late in his high school career should be taken as a positive. Looks like one of the top quarterbacks in the cycle entering his senior season with the upside to develop into an early round draft pick.
