Tyler Taylor has long been regarded as one of the more physical outside linebackers in the class of 2017, and LSU made a major move Wednesday when it landed the 4-star stud.

Shea Dixon of 247Sports first relayed word of Taylor's decision.

Taylor rose to prominence at Lanier High School, and the Buford, Georgia, product skyrocketed up the recruiting ranks to the point that he graded out as the fourth-ranked outside linebacker in the state.

Taylor was also the 10th-ranked outside linebacker in the South Region and the 16th-ranked player at the position in the country.
