Expert Analysis
Hunter Tierney | Prep Redzone Scout
You don’t usually see a 2027 kid who’s this comfortable on both sides of the ball. Taylan just gets it. On defense, he moves like he’s reading the play a beat ahead of everyone else, slipping into the right spot without panic or wasted motion. His footwork is clean, his hand placement is textbook, and he’s physical without being reckless. There’s a calm confidence in the way he plays — like he’s already seen the route before it’s been run. Offensively, he brings some of that same poise. He’s not just out there trying to win with speed (though he’s got enough of it); he plays smart, finds soft spots, and stays balanced through contact. But it’s on defense where he really shines, where the instincts and feel for the game turn into that unfair advantage. Taylan’s not the loudest dude on the field, but he’s one of those players who always seems to be where the ball is. That’s not luck — that’s awareness, and it’s rare to see it this dialed in at his age.
