I have been hearing a lot that taylor is not a big hitter in the secondary, but I just saw some highlight's of him, and he absolutly hammered 4 or 5 player's in those highlight's, maybe he doesn't get the opportunity quite as much as a roy william's, but he defiently looked like he could lay out anybody he want's, he does have that kind of power, perhap's he doesn't have as many highlight hit's because he's much more adept at getting to the ball before the reciever get's it, whether it's knocking it down or intercepting it, it's nice as a safety to be able to lay people out, it makes for big entertainment, but I alway's felt it was more important to cover first as a saftey, you can't hit what you can't catch, an interception IMO is more devastating to the opposition than a big hit, taylor look's like the total package if you ask me, I am hopeful we draft him.
