I went to Miami and when Big Ben was drafted it was so deflating to see him go to a team I hated (mind you, I graduated before Big Ben and didn't know about the bad stuff he was doing at Miami). It's not like MAC football fans get to see a lot of round 1 picks and you don't see many Miami RedHawks in the NFL. Thus, it always stung watching his on field success and especially against the Bengals. I refused to root for him the second Pittsburgh called his name.
So back to Sauce, I wish he could have fallen to the Bengals but I doubt it. I hope the UC guys taken throughout the draft experience success but please, please, please don't let them end up in the AFC North unless with Cincinnati.
Now I know why I like you so much. Fellow Redhawk! Love and honor!
To the OP - Unless thoughts change by Draft Day, he might not be a great fit in every team's defensive scheme. He's good in man coverage but he especially excels in zone. And yes, while every team plays a mix of both, I'd imagine he'll be favored by the teams that play zone the most. So I do think he could fall into the early 20's like what's currently projected. If he doesn't though, gimme McCreary or Elam. Really both those guys.
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. If he can turn this into a playoff appearance, it will be impressive.
