Taylor is a dense, bowling-ball back. His low center of gravity allows him to bob and weave through defenders. Taylor has average burst and build-up speed back with a decent second gear in the second-level. Taylor has solid lateral agility, but he loses speed when attempting to string tackle-breaking moves together. He wins with vision and short-area footwork. He's not a powerback. Taylor is a trusted back in pass pro with only one sack and five hurries allowed in college (160 pass blocking snaps). With his stature and strong base, he can stand up an incoming defender or, at the very least, redirect them from his quarterback. Taylor was a decent checkdown option in the passing game. He amassed 43 receptions (54 targets) in his only season with Virginia, but he only churned out 0.91 yards per route run with a 0.2 aDOT. He did have a 10.4% drop rate, which is concerning. If he can earn passing down reps with his blocking chops, he could be an outlet option for a quarterback, but he'll likely never be a "pass game weapon".
