Taylor

Taylor, a 320-pound two-gapper from Michigan, will rotate with fellow rookie Fili Moala, Keyunta Dawson, Eric Foster, and Raheem Brock. The Colts have a lot more size on the defensive line than they ever did under Tony Dungy.

The Colts won’t admit it, but they’re moving away from Cover 2. Tony Dungy never would’ve considered Taylor. A pure nose guard with no pass-rush ability, Taylor does bring much needed size along with second-round pick Fili Moala. Taylor will never be more than a two-down player, though.

Gronkowski was a seventh-round pick who spent three weeks on the active roster in December. Taylor, the Colts’ fourth-round pick last season, floated around the league before landing in Detroit.

Taylor didn’t make the Colts out of training camp last year after they made him a fourth-round pick. He possesses no ability to push the pocket.
