    per tigerbait. Brandon projects as a CB or safety. Jhyryn projects as either a DB or WR.

    Some info I found on them... measurables are from their Rivals profiles, stats are from Scout profile.

    Brandon Taylor
    Ht: 5-foot-11
    Wt: 172 lbs
    Forty: 4.49 secs
    Bench reps: 11
    Vertical: 31 inches
    Shuttle: 4.39 secs

    He recorded 30 tackles in 2006 and lined up offensively recording 400 yards receiving and 300 yards rushing.

    Jhyryn Taylor
    Ht: 6-foot-0
    Wt: 172 lbs
    Bench reps: 13
    Vertical: 31 inches
    Shuttle: 4.28 secs

    He caught 33 passes for 600 yards and six touchdowns during his junior campaign.

    Jhyryn is supposed to be very good at finding holes in coverage, which is why he is projected by some as a WR. Given Crowton's offense, this is possible, but with his height I expect him to be a DB.

    I'd guess both will be high 3 stars, maybe one of them a 4 but this isn't based on much as I haven't seen any film of either one.

    I think becasue of how loaded the Wide receivers crop is this year both Taylor brothers will join their brother on the defensive side of the ball.

    Are they both 172 lbs. or is that a mistake? Not that Curtis Taylor has done anything yet to call him a great collegiate player, but it is all in the genes. People just don't seem to give heredity enough credit. Anyone watching the Ncaa basketball final 4 should have took notice at the amount of sons of former professional athletes that were playing?

    Rivals list both at 172 lbs. Scout lists Brandon at 195 lbs. & Jhyryn at 185 lbs. Just watched their films on Rivals again, both these guys have serious talent.

    Wouldn't be a bad situation for either of the Taylor brothers either.
