I had high hopes for Kevin Austin but I'm not seeing his name mentioned much is these write ups.

Taylor is probably one of the most, if not, THE most penalized lineman on the team. I also recall a good amount of plays where he was flagged after a solid pick-up on offense. He's a momentum killer. The less time he spends on the field the better. I haven't seen anything out of Austin lately neither. Probably not good but it's also still early. 

Little is going to be a starter this year. There's no doubt about it. There was an article about this back in January or February from the Florida Times-Union. They had him moving back and forth last year at LT and RT. After he had that last minute start against Buffalo when Robinson's back injury happened during warm up's he showed he can handle it in a pinch. 

He ended up grading out as the best overall lineman last year for this team. Now, granted, he only had a little over 220 snaps last year. However, lineman play is fairly consistent. And, the fact that he ultimately graded out higher than every other starter on the line last year merits him starting this year for sure. 

I think he's going to be a good starter at RT. Especially in this RPO system with Pederson. Will be a thing of beauty when this kid kicks outside to block on a swing pass to Etienne and he gets to the 2nd level. He seems like a good fit over there.
