Shepherd wouldn't divulge the names of other players on the shortlist but powerhouse wingers Israel Folau and Manu Vatuvei are also known to have appeal for the Americans.
Taylor, nicknamed the "Coaltrain", was this year signed by the Rabbitohs for three more years in league but would be a natural in the NFL, said Shepherd, who has received interest from, among others, the Buffalo Bills and New York Giants.
"He can run and bust the line. He's got speed off the mark and he could tuck the ball under his arm and away he goes. He'd be a sensation," Shepherd said.
