The Chargers "hope" Brandon Taylor will be the team's starting strong safety for 2013 following Friday's release of Atari Bigby. Taylor was the No. 73 overall pick in last year's draft, but he played in just four games as a rookie before tearing his ACL in late December. He spent most of his time as an in-the-box safety while at LSU. Taylor is questionable for training camp, though, due to his knee, and it could cost him a shot at winning the job.
