Tanner Mordecai

Tanner Mordecai

QuarterbackQB
Wisconsin Badgers
2023 Fantasy Outlook
Mordecai transferred to Wisconsin in order to prove that he could replicate the gaudy numbers he posted at SMU — 7,152 yards and 72 touchdowns over the past two seasons — at the highest level of college football. Mordecai has been the unquestioned starter since he stepped on campus, and he’ll join a Wisconsin team that’s completely revamped their offense under new coordinator Phil Longo. The Badgers are set to operate in Longo’s pass-heavy air raid and move away from their traditional run-first, pro style offense. How smooth that transition will be remains to be seen, but it certainly looks like Wisconsin has the personnel to deploy one of the most dangerous offenses in the Big Ten. With plenty of experience returning on the offense line, a dynamic one-two backfield punch in Braelon Allen and Chez Mellusi, as well as an influx of talented wide receivers via the transfer portal, Mordecai has all of the weapons to facilitate an explosive offense.

Throws for 378 yards in ReliaQuest Bowl
January 4, 2024
Mordecai completed 27 of 40 passes for 378 yards and three touchdowns during Monday's 35-31 defeat versus LSU. He also had 13 rushes for negative three yards.
ANALYSIS
Mordecai logged his best outing of the 2023 season against LSU, as the Badgers came up just short against the Tigers. The 6-foot-2 graduate senior finished the 2023 season with 2,066 yards (204-of-314), nine touchdowns and four interceptions, along with 302 yards and four scores on the ground across 10 games. Mordecai's season was somewhat derailed by a fractured throwing hand sustained against Iowa in Week 7, but he still managed to give Wisconsin a shot in their bowl game.

2022 Fantasy Outlook
A battle with the highly touted Preston Stone looms and a new coaching staff means that he and Mordecai are on equal footing, but there’s reason to believe Mordecai wins the job. He threw for 3,628 yards and 39 touchdowns last season and the offense should remain up-tempo as Rhett Lashlee’s Miami had a nearly identical play-per-game mark as SMU did in 2021. Mordecai will provide high passing volume and has a loaded receiver group at his disposal. The Stone issue shouldn’t be brushed aside by Mordecai investors but Mordecai projects to start for this prolific offense.
