Re: Potential problem with Sean Taylor

This entire discussion is pretty much moot at this point. His entire future is all up to a jury and judge. In other words, his future is in doubt. There is a very real chance, ST will never play in the NFL again (what is that chance? I'd guess somewhere between 25% and 75% -- it isn't 0 and it isn't 100%).

Now, if he is found not guilty, gets the charges thrown out or something like that, he is going to make a great deal of money. The good news for ST is that he didn't get drafted by a cheap owner. The bad news is nobody wants to redo deals with Screw Rosenhaus (if only the NFL would whack that worthless POS).

My take on ST is that what happened in Miami was a wake up call for the man. He didn't keep his nose 100% clean, but you did see quite a bit of good stuff. He still needs to grow up. I just hope for his sake (this is bigger than football) that one mistake doesn't destroy his life.

Re: Potential problem with Sean Taylor

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Taylor fire his first agent and try to get more money before his rookie season? If that's true, then he doesn't seem like much of a team guy.

i dont think he fired him to get more money. no motive was ever explained. right after the deal he fired the guy that wrote it and re-hired his old agent. he's deal is super cap friendly to the skins, so i'd say it was very (incidently) team oriented

His original agent was actually Drew Rosenhaus then he fired him right after being drafted and went with Jeff Moorad. But then he and Moorad parted ways without explanation. But a week later Moorad announced that he was leaving the sports agent business all together to be President (or something like that) of the Arizona Diamondbacks. Then Sean went back to Drew...circle of life

Re: Potential problem with Sean Taylor

speaking of rosenhaus, youd think his tactic of having players hold out for a big day wont be working anymore, so he prolly wont suggest taylor does that.

Re: Potential problem with Sean Taylor

Taylor's additude changed last year only after his arrest and the need to change his image arose. If he gets off these charges I'd be willing to bet he will hold out this year.

I mean, his choice off agent says it all. In his defense, his contract was a little low for where he was drafted.............but he did sign it.

I don't think he will hold out. I think he will work his ass off this go around to set up a 07 raise!

Re: Potential problem with Sean Taylor

I don't think the team would mind renegotiating Taylor's contract. When he signed that contract he had yet to play a single down in the NFL...he was still an unproven player. They are bringing in Arch with some experience under his belt and we all know what he can do at the NFL level. I'm sure Snyder would be willing to renegotiate Taylor's contract because we've seen the type of player he is.

Rookie safties can't excpect to make that muck out the gate...

Re: Potential problem with Sean Taylor

We have to see what happens to ST in court first. Then, we can woory about his on-the-field performance and his contract. Hopefully, he is a little more mature this year than last year.

I posted something about this subject i nanother threand

Archuleta his a good player my question is don't you agree you overpay him I mean making him the highest paid safety in the league is a bit much. That's the only thing for me he isn't even close to Reed, Roy, Taylor, Dawkins, Brown, Polamalu, Wilson, Sanders league this will hurth future contracts.

With the salary cap increasing year by year, you will see safeties getting richer contracts, remember this years cap has increased drastically. You will see more teams follow suit. I dont think teams are realizing the amount of cap space they are now being alotted.

he is close to a lot of them. he's like a roy/polamalu/sanders big hitter type. We'll see how he does this year. he does average 3 sacks and a bunch of tackles a year... i think his salary is too high for what he's done, but there's no real recourse there.
