Darrell Taylor EDGE Tennessee

NYniner85 · 2020-01-20T12:24:06-08:00

One guy I'm looking forward to watching/reading about at the Senior Bowl is Taylor He's 6-4 260 who's got 16.5 sacks the past two yrs. He's got crazy upside, explosive first step, crazy bend, and is very athletic. He needs to be coached up more and having a guys like Ford/Bosa would do wonders for him. Not really sure where he goes in the draft BUT I expect it to go up after the SB and combine testing.

This is what happens when you ask a tight end to block Tennessee EDGE Darrell Taylor (19). pic.twitter.com/yxJsOudTfU

Don't sleep on Tennessee edge rusher Darrell Taylor.
- 16.5 sacks over the last two seasons
- 21 TFL over the last two seasons

Really think he's going to have a big week at the Senior Bowl. pic.twitter.com/TUCLS8VNZs

This quick inside move by Darrell Taylor is scary. Tomorrow on @DraftNetworkLLC, I'm writing how he has the highest upside of any pass rusher in the 2020 NFL draft, not named Chase Young. pic.twitter.com/G6rA1O4Avs

Tennessee EDGE Darrell Taylor has the most tantalizing traits and highest ceiling of any pass rusher in the 2020 NFL Draft — outside of Chase Young.

He has the opportunity to showcase that talent at the @seniorbowl. My breakdown: https://t.co/yyz8KS5MzH

I love this guy. I just finished a mock on the mock draft forum where I traded down and picked him in the second round. I think he would be the perfect understudy to Dee Ford, and he would be good insurance if Dee Ford continues to struggle with his health next season.

I don't think so...well it all depends on who they resign.

DB/EDGE/IOL/WR those should be options.

Darrell Taylor - Tennessee

Loose EDGE/OLB
High Side Rushes

Last 2yrs: 21 TFL, 16.5 sacks

Great get-off, flexibility to turn corner, burst to close. Starts w/ speed rushes, then works in speed-to-power & inside moves. Highly touted recruit

I actually have this guy rated higher than both Anae and Khalid Kareem..

IF we can trade out of the 1st round to the middle of 2nd round, this kid will be a GEM!!!
