Detroit Lions draft preview DE Devin Taylor


Did some film on South Carolina DE Devin Taylor. (Georgia, Michigan, LSU, Eastwest game) I like this guy. He has good size but is raw. He would fit in the Lion DE rotation.

2012 27t 3sacks 6 pd

Combine 6072 266 4.72 40 14 reps 35 Vj 1008 broad 4.3 20 6.89 ldrill.



Strengths: long. Disrupts with his size. Bats passes and gets in passing lanes. Decent at holding his ground. Good burst and great motor. 2 forced fumbles in the Shrine Game.

Weaknesses : need to finish more plays. Seems to wear down. Raw pass rush moves. Needs more strength and leverage.

Bottom line. Could be an effective rotational end in Detroit. Good for 20-25 plays mostly in passing situations. Has upside.  6.3 rotational player with starter potiential.  4th round.
