	#2 Tyrod Taylor
		Pos: Quarterback NFL Team: BAL Injury: OK		Experience: 0 College: Virginia Tech Height: 73 Weight: 215 Born: 8/3/1989

Summary

Quarterback Rank: #79
Overall: #457

Taylor was the top backup for the Ravens last season but attempted just a pass his rookie year. But he showed enough to be the No. 2, which is saying something for a rookie player that wasn't highly drafted. He should keep that job for 2012. Taylor is a great athlete. He has a plus arm and quick release. Taylor struggles with accuracy and reading defenses, though. He remains a bit of a project, but his athleticism makes him an intriguing player for the Ravens going forward.

FANTASY OUTLOOK

Taylor probably won't see the field once again but might be worth a look if injury forces him into action. He is a dual threat at quarterback that could help fantasy teams in a pinch.
