I keep hearing that Vilma is gonna get it or Boulware. I doubt they'll give it to Taylor...


Damn all of them are from the "U"

Vilma, Boulware, and even Darnell Dockett could get it over him, but he's certainly in the running. At least until SC sees the thread.

I think he will be second to Vilma but Colman, D.J. Williams, Daunta Robinson and Sean Taylor all made strong cases. GREAT year for defensive rookies.

ESPN didn't even put him on their first-team all rookie squad.

It was a pretty good year for rookies in general. Big Ben, Michael Clayton, Lee Evans, Kevin Jones, etc...

Which kind of sucks.

Here's their pick for free safety:

"David's college teammate, Erik Coleman, was an easy pick at safety. The fifth-rounder was third on the Jets with 88 tackles, had four interceptions, two sacks and five pass deflections."

Sean's stats: 76 tackles, 4 picks, 1 sack, 15 pass deflections, and 2 forced fumbles. If you want to say Coleman was a better value (in the 5th round) than Taylor, fine - but "an easy pick"?

Sean Taylor is first in the hearts and minds of lots of people here...


AND


Sean Taylor was the first defensive player taken in the draft last year...


BUT ALAS


He will not be the Defensive Rookie of the Year...


UNLESS


They add a special category called Defensive Rookie MEATHEAD of the Year.

OK, so someone explain to me how Chris "Dangerfield", I mean Chris Gamble hasn't gotten a mention on this thread or ESPN's "Rookie Team??

Gamble: 66 tackles, 6 INTS!, 1 forced fumble and 14 pass deflections!

compare to...

Jason David: 55 tackles, 4 Ints, 1 FF, 15 PD (He made "All-Rookie" team)

Gamble also had to learn the position on the fly coming from being a receiver in college.

But I think you HAVE to say Dunta Robinson for D-ROY... INCREDIBLE numbers...

Robinson: 88 tackles!! 6 INTS!! 3 sacks!! 19 PD!! ... WOW! Taylor doesn't compare here....

It should def. be Sean Tayler. A lot of what Sean tayler does isn't seen my the naked eye. Just think about all those corner blitz's we did this year, you know why we never got burned, because Sean Tayler has the rare ability to cover a WR as a safety. He was great in coverage and that isn't always easy to see either. I think all us Skins fan know we got one hell of a superstar coming up.

I also love seeing Sean throw his body into the wedge to break it up on special teams.
