Massive, nasty left tackle who became a Michigan anchor
In the 2013 season, Taylor Lewan was a 6-8, 315-pound redshirt senior left tackle who had appeared in 50 games with 48 starts at Michigan, including 41 straight, and finished as a two-time first-team All-American[7][1]. His calling card was rare size-plus-athleticism for the edge, with the kind of length, footwork, and aggressive edge that made him a tone-setter in pass protection and in the run game[11][4]. The knock? He had a reputation for balance issues and streaky motor in some scouting reports, plus a history of injury and off-field scrutiny that adds risk to the profile[4][5][13].
