Ethanga62890 Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 5'9 216 Excellent pass blocker. Easily the most versatile back in the draft. Much will depend on his 40 time. He's got 4.5 speed and with his versatility would be a steal in the 3rd. Much more realistic than Lacy/Bernard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smiler11 Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 I don't think you can go wrong with Taylor - he's a very solid back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J0ker Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 (edited) ehh i'm personally not a fan of Taylor. He doesn't really seem to have much explosiveness or acceleration, just one speed. And a lot of those runs in the video he got tackled right at first contact, and a few goal line/short yardage situations he got stuffed. I would prefer someone else..yeah hes solid but just doenst do it for me Edited February 8, 2013 by FalcNdubO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam25 Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 easily the most versatile back ? I wouldn't agree their, for our offense I'd much rather Randle or Gillislee, can score from anywhere on the field and breaks tackles, both are great at catching the ball out of the backfield and both pick up blitzes well. That being said, I wouldn't be mad if we got Taylor, I just prefer Randle or Gillislee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

delaigle Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Right now he's projected to go before Latimorenot sure if both were on the boards then I might lean to LatimoreBut it may be just because I'm more familar with him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I watch tape on either of these 2, they always want to bounce it outside and more often than not go down after the first contact.Taylor is a 3 down back, whilst not my favorite back in the draft, he does do everything well.

We need a RB with power, speed and agility who will truck you over and doesn't go down at first contact. I'm not impressed with Taylor.
