Taylor Graham (born June 3, 1980 in Fair Oaks, California) is an American soccer central defender, who is currently with Red Bull New York of Major League Soccer.
Graham played five years of college soccer at Stanford University, registering as a walk-on his freshman year of 1998, and only appearing in two games in 1999. After appearing in 18 games his sophomore season, Graham started every possible game his final two, winning first team All-Pac 10 his senior year, as he led the Cardinal to an appearance in the NCAA College Cup.
After graduating from Stanford, Graham was drafted 33rd overall in the 2003 MLS SuperDraft by the Kansas City Wizards. Graham was signed to a developmental contract, making two appearances and playing a total of ten minutes. In his second season Graham was given significantly more playing time, but was still not close to a major player for the Wizards. After a season in the USL First Division when he played every minute for the Seattle Sounders, led his team to the title, and was named USL Defender of the Year, Graham was acquired by the MetroStars, now Red Bull New York.
