02Scheme fit
Ideal system
Fangio two-high
Free SafetyBox SafetyDimebacker
Best role
Immediate starter at free safety with the tools to develop into a Pro Bowl caliber playmaker.
Wrong fit
Man-heavy schemes that frequently ask safeties to cover slot receivers one-on-one vertically.
Taylor's versatility and high football IQ make him a plug-and-play starter in a two-high system, capable of covering ground and making plays on the ball.
