Bill Taylor is not a name most people on the recruiting trail know and that's because he plays the most underrated position in all of football. Taylor is a long snapper for Tuscaloosa American Christian Academy in Alabama and is the nation's best long snapper according to 247Sports.
The Alabama native in the class of 2017 decided to stay in the state, but not with the Crimson Tide:

The 6'4", 235-pound Taylor also plays a tight end and defensive end in high school so that may help him earn some playing time as well. He becomes Auburn's eighth commit for the class of 2017. He was rated five stars by Kohl's Kicking Camp, but is a two-star prospect overall according to 247Sports.
