Justin Taylor is a long, disruptive edge with early-decade pedigree
Justin Taylor entered Virginia Tech as a highly regarded defensive end prospect, ranked by Rivals as the No. 30 defensive end nationally and the No. 16 player in North Carolina in the 2010 class, with a frame listed around 6-2 and 218-230 pounds depending on the source. His appeal is the classic Hokie edge profile: compact power, toughness, and enough length to play on the outside and attack the backfield. For a team, he fits if the goal is a physical, high-motor defender who can set an edge and bring pressure without needing everything to be pretty.
