Devontay Love-Taylor

FSU needs help at offensive tackle. I know it, you know it, and other teams know it. Devontay Love-Taylor transferred from FIU where he played offensive tackle.

He’s more of a guard to me, but will likely have to play offensive tackle at FSU. He’s immediately eligible for 2020 as a graduate transfer and will be an important piece in helping Mike Norvell bridge the gap until they can develop younger players on the roster.

He’ll likely be a starter in 2020 and performed well against some well-regarded defensive ends last season.

The hope is he’s at least serviceable in 2020 and can stay injury-free, sorta like graduate transfer Ryan Roberts last year or better would be ideal.

I don’t expect him to be a first-round draft pick or anything, but he’s in the No. 2 spot on this list off the strength of how bad the Noles need offensive tackles and the number of snaps he could play.
