'I’m going to make an early impact ... I want to become an immediate starter.' taeetaylor chatted with TDN about the transition from WR to CB, how he approaches bigger WRs in coverage differently than smaller ones, and more. FrontOffice33 | NFLDraft
is one of the most intriguing cornerback prospects in the 2022 NFL Draft. The 6-foot, 199-pound Taylor enjoyed an eye-popping NFL Scouting Combine by running the 40-yard dash in a blazing 4.36 seconds. It appropriately built upon an impressive Senior Bowl showing and final collegiate campaign that saw Taylor record career-highs in total tackles , interceptions , and passes deflected .
AT: My confidence level definitely skyrocketed heading into the season. We had made a coaching staff change. The new staff brought a defense to the table that better suited my skill set and abilities. I quickly bonded and got on the same page with our new staff. They allowed me to play freely. I didn’t have to think too much about what was going on. It allowed me to play fast, decisive and physical.
JM: That makes a ton of sense. You had a big combine that was highlighted by running a 4.36 in the 40-yard dash. It’s an especially terrific time when taking your size into account. Do you feel like you surprised some people in Indianapolis? AT: I’ve been able to meet with a lot of teams throughout the process. We’ve been talking about football. I’ve been doing some Zoom meetings and I have some in-person visits on my schedule as well. I’ve really enjoyed the process. Teams are reaching out to me and getting to know me on a more personal level. I’m keeping those details under wraps during this time, but I’ve definitely spoken with a bunch of teams and will continue to do so leading up to late April.
JM: It really stands out on tape. Tennessee mixed their coverages. It gave you a ton of experience in press, zone, and off-man. Which is your favorite? AT: With the previous staff, we had a lot of checks going on. We had a lot to think about and a lot more to see than maybe you should be able to from your position at cornerback. This past season, we made the call and we played it out. It allowed me to play fast and physically. I was able to better focus on my responsibilities and my technique. We didn’t have to see or think too much.
