In 2015 (Tyrods best year) he threw the highest % of deep passes in the league, had the 10th best accuracy, 2nd most touchdowns and had the highest rating on deep throws. 
So eh no Bortles worst year throwing deep was not better than Tyrods best.  
You can do better than this buddy.

When you can't run the football you have to throw, the last thing you want from Taylor because he cant move the football.  Bortles will throw some picks but at least he can move the football down the field when he has to throw.  You mean the 2015 were Bortles cracked the top 60 in the top 100 and the 2015 that Bortles led the league in 20+ by a good margin, Bortles 72 to Taylors 45.

Just because the guy is an upgrade for Bortles, that doesn't mean we should pursue him.  I think the team should be aiming a little higher than picking the winner of the tallest midget competition.  Taylor may be marginally better at times than Bortles, but he's not a franchise guy, and that's what this team really needs to identify.  I seriously doubt they'd go out in free agency and overspend on a guy who is an upgrade to this football team on par with adding a cassette deck to a Yugo.

I don't think he's going to be that expensive. I still expect the jags to draft a QB, any veteran we come up with I would assume is a stop gap.

Tyrod isn't my first choice, but if he's all that's left, I'd rather have him than bortles until a young replacement is ready.

I think Taylor goes to the Browns, and they draft Barkley.  They wanted Taylor the beggining of the year
