We have really just recruited a lot of players that were out before they were even in. They had their eyes on the league before they signed on NLI Day and that has been a cultural element in this program, especially with players from this area (but not limited to), for a really long time now. Lots of mid prospects masquerading as "blue chippers" because they were "blue chippers" (*as @Rellyrell outlines) but lack the necessary athleticism and character
Leonard Taylor just another in the long lineage of these incredible prospects just phone it in for 3 years until they find something else to do. Marcus Forston, Ryan Moore. Sucks he never really got it. Maybe he wasn't put in the best position to succeed, but you need to make chicken salad out of chicken **** at every level of football.

For those that think he can still MAKE IT as a UDFA. Yes, that is true. But, its not really the 90s anymore. John Randle or Tony Siragusa aren't popping up as UDFAs in 2024 NFL. The liklihood of a DT being Coy Bacon today is slim. Maybe he's Poona Ford if things bank right. Maybe Damon Harrison like career if he gets very lucky.
Odds are stacked against LT for sure.
Anyone else remember this guy? Reminds me a lot of Leonard Taylor, unfortunately.
