Chik-Fil-A Peach Bowl: Florida vs. Michigan
Jawaan Taylor, OT, Florida
The “Sunshine State” always produces big names for bowl season, even with Florida State missing out on the fun this year. Florida has a few players worth watching, including edge rusher Jachai Polite and safety Chauncey Gardner-Johnson. But Taylor has been a late riser in the draft process.
Taylor has good size. And while he might not be as athletic or consistent as tackles who are usually taken near the top of round one, the tremendous need at the position could allow Taylor to find a spot in the back end of the first round. Taylor also has the skill set to switch to guard, which will make him a coveted option for an NFL team looking to get young across the offensive line.
Honorable Mention: Jaquan Johnson, S, Miami (12/27 New Era Pinstripe Bowl, vs. Wisconsin)
