At the time of his death he was the 3rd best S in the NFC East alone. You are supremely overrating him. He was very mediocre most his career with the occasional splash play. That said, his trajectory was way up. He appeared to be improving. Get out of here with that nonsense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody denies he is a genetic freak; that doesnt guarantee football dominance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was just entering his prime and had 10 more years of his career ahead of him. You can’t blame him for not having a bigger resume when he was murdered in his own home. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont know what his career would have turned into - - and I already said the arrow was pointing up. But the reality was he had 2 mediocre years, 1 good and 1 all pro (going off memory); he *EVERYONE* considered him the 3rd best safety in the NFC E. Maybe he turns into Brian Dawkins. Maybe he pulls a Roy Williams. Point is people talk about him like he was an all timer. He wasnt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could pull up stats, but that "wouldn't tell the whole story." Or use ranking systems like AV to compare the players, but that has it's own flaws. Sufficed to say, Sean Taylor was a guy who offensive coordinators had to worry about week in and week out. To say he was overrated is just wrong. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Read the description above from MKnight. That is overrating him, imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandyMossIsBoss Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Supremely talented safety who looked liked he could have had a HOF career. I think that is a fair description of Taylor. He was a monster those last 2 years. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandyMossIsBoss Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Wow Foster to the Skins. I had a strong suspicion it'd be either the Cowboys or Skins to pickup Foster given their owners, but you hate to see it. He is a stud on the football field. I hope Goodell drops the hammer on him, he definitely won't play another down this year, but considering this is 2nd (3rd even?) offense, could extend into 2019.

I'd be perfectly fine with Goodell banning him for the season. I have ZERO interest in seeing him suit up in Burgundy & Gold. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like @Woz, I have ZERO interest in him in the B&G. I'm more worried about the extra work in the forum that Woz and I now have to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
