Friday's story spotlighted some of the Senior Bowl's top offensive tackles, specifically three from the North squad: Nate Solder, Gabe Carimi and Anthony Castonzo.
The South team countered with 340-pound Baylor defensive lineman Phil Taylor, who showed uncanny agility for a guy his size in practice.
"The one-on-ones is a big part for me," Taylor said, "just so I can show what I can do against the best players in the country."
Mock drafts have Taylor pegged as high as the second round. He showed terrific pass rush ability in Mobile, and although his weight might be an issue, he could fit in either a 3-4 or 4-3.
Could the Cowboys be interested? That remains to be seen. It's been speculated that Jay Ratliff could move back to defensive end because Rob Ryan has used bigger nose tackles, like Shaun Rogers, in the past. Doesn't mean that will happen.
But at the very least, Taylor made an impression on teams this week. And he's a guy to watch on Saturday.
