That’s ridiculously nonsensical.Look at the measurables, McCarthy would have passed on Lawerence Taylor because he didn’t have the length & size.
First, your post was a comparison of Anae to Taylor, not how McCarthy would view them, so you are trying to grasp onto something new since your comparison is so weak.
Second, even if true (it’s not) that would mean McCarthy screwed up, not that Anae would ever be remotely at Taylor’s level. But it’s not true - McCarthy drafted a much smaller LB than Anae this past draft (Cox). Remember, Taylor was a LB, not a DE.
Third - the “measurables” dramatically favored Taylor over Anae, who doesn’t have anything remotely close to the speed and quickness to rush the QB that Taylor did.
And finally, Taylor was a player every NFL team coveted going into the draft, and Anae was a 6th round pick. Nothing about Anae’s talents or how he was viewed by NFL teams compares favorably to Taylor.
