45. Taysom Hill

Undrafted from BYU, Taysom Hill signed with the Green Bay Packers, but was released after the pre-season games.  The Saints picked him up the day after, resulting in the most versatile offensive player in the modern game.

Playing mostly on Special Teams as a rookie, Hill, who played Quarterback at BYU, would be brought in occasionally and could pass, rush and receive. It was instant excitement when Hill came onto the field, as you never know what he will do.  Hill is a unique weapon whose skill set terrorizes defensive coordinators, and his mere presence drives other teams into panic. 

There is no other player in the NFL like Taysom Hill.
