While an analytics-based approach to building a roster is great, in the NFL, finding a dude who can run fast and jump high that’s a certain height and weight is more important.
Vanderbilt cornerback Kolbey Taylor checks those boxes, and the Baltimore Ravens got a 1st person look at Taylor this week at his school’s Pro Day.
“Vanderbilt CB Kolbey Taylor met with theBroncos,Cardinals,Bengals,Lions,Packers,Ravens andJets among other teams as well at his Pro Day,” Packers reporter Easton Butler wrote on X.
Taylor, 6-foot-3 and 190 pounds, is the rare 3-time member of the “Freaks” list of college football prospects put out by The Athletic’s Bruce Feldman every year.
“The 6-3, 190-pounder is making his third appearance on the Freaks List,” Feldman wrote in August 2025. “Taylor had 23 tackles and one TFL in 2024, his first in the SEC. This offseason, Taylor broad jumped 10-11, vertical jumped 38.5 inches and hit a top speed of 21.99 mph on the GPS.”
