I have no doubt that Taylor would have put together a solid HOF resume had he played 4 or 5 more years, however, I can't see electing a guy who played less than 4 years, no matter how good. Taylor had the greatest skills of any safety I've ever seen, but until this season, he was still making mistakes and missing tackles. This season, he was playing better free safety than any other player - by a wide margin. Since he was hurt against Philly, we've been burned down the middle consistently. Hell, if Taylor was out there yesterday, he blows up Josh Reed on the pass that set up the winning Buffalo FG.

HOF talk aside, Sean Taylor should be officially inducted into the Redskins Ring of Honor. I would suggest doing it at next season's home opener to allow his family to mourn their loss for now.
