So read a couple of things about Cooper Taylor a SS that plays for Richmond, he was a former Georgia Tech recruit that transferred after seeing his play time diminish. Massive guy that had an impressive showing in the opening training session of the Shrine Games East practice (he picked off Klein) and according to notes... "he’s reacting and closing on passes as well as any of them. His change of direction, efficient aggression, and reaction to the play were fantastic today" (source: http://www.optimumscouting.com/draft/ar ... onday.html)

Only one bit of 'tape' on him though

Could be worth looking at in the later rounds into UDFA if he drops out, seems to fit the size/speed mold and potentially could be used as an OLB as well.

Nice find. Obviously, you can't scout from stuff like this, but you can tell Taylor has pro-bowl caliber size and speed if nothing else. Really pops off the screen physically. This is exactly the kind of player/situation that John Schneider would unearth. Could be a name to listen for in April.
