PLAYSTYLE & SCHEME FIT
Mason Taylor is an athletic, fluid-moving tight end with natural hands, good route awareness, and the ability to thrive as a versatile receiving option. He has experience lining up in-line, in the slot, and as an H-back, giving him added value to offensive schemes. His blocking needs refinement, especially against stronger edge defenders, but his technique and effort suggest he can improve. Best suited for an offense that utilizes two-tight-end sets or an "F" role where he can operate as a mismatch weapon in the passing game.
CEILING GRADE ANALYSIS
Mid-Level Starter Potential (60-64)
A solid, dependable starter with the potential to exceed expectations. They have good athleticism and tools but may lack elite traits. While they show flashes of high-level play, they also have some notable weaknesses that must be developed. These players often need 2-3 years to establish themselves.
