Combine is a chance for him to increase his stock big time. Dare I say 40+ reps on the bench?

6 foot is good size for a NT, guys that are too tall can have a disadvantage. The more concerning thing is his off senior year . . . questions about his work ethic.

40 probably isn't out of reach.

The whole Michigan team really suffered this past season, so it's hard to really get a good indication of just how much he struggled. I'm interested to see how Brandon Graham does in 2009 since he decided to return.

yeah Michigan had a bunch of position coaches that had an idea of what they wanted to do, but the DC (Scott Shafer) was in way over his head and was not on the same page with the rest of his staff.

Some might think Taylor is a bad choice, but he's actually very strong, and very good with leverage. Problem was that outside of Brandon Graham and 18 year old Mike Martin, the rest of the D-Line was subpar due to all the stunts Shafer ran.
 
as a michigan fan i can say he was good at times and disappeared at times, so all in all 5th round or later sure ill take him any earlier ill pass

disagree. I think he can work into the 2nd-3rd round. He had a lackluster senior year due to a mixture of poor scheme and an inept offense. He was great as a junior and senior. Plus, he is a great leader and great teammate and is a hard worker.

Well either way his stock should go down and we should be able to grab him later. You dont reward a guy for having an off year by picking him higher because of what he did his junior year.
