LSU tight end Mason Taylor is arguably seen as the TE-3 of this class behind Tyler Warren and Colston Loveland. Taylor also has a NFL hall of fame father in DE/OLB Jason Taylor. Jason Taylor played most of his career in Miami, and Mason is visiting with the Dolphins as part of the team’s 30 visits with draft eligible players. If Mason were to land with the Dolphins it is definitely a storybook worthy situation. Even with a famous father, Mason has made a name for himself as a tight end. He finished his junior season with 55 catches, 546 yards, and 2 touchdowns. Upon film review, it seems LSU did not take advantage of Taylor’s speed as a deep threat as they should have. Mason may have a better career in the NFL.

If Mason Taylor is drafted by the Miami Dolphins, he may have a bright future. The incumbent tight end is 29 year old Jonnu Smith. Taylor may not see the field right away but he may work his way onto the field and be a good weapon for Tua Tagovailoa. Mason is definitely a great value as a dynasty draft pick. It may be a year or two before he is a worthy redraft pick.
