For the people who are mad at Taylor. What did he ever do to us besides play through two potential season ending injuries? Are you the same people who criticized his lack of production even though he was hurt and not a true 4-3 end? Moving him to Strongside backer wouldn't have worked either. It was obvious that he was not going to live up to his contract here.

For the people who wonder why he would go back and play for a lower salary you have underestimated his pride. We aren't talking about Dana Stubblefield. This guy is a warrior and doesn't want the last memory of him being hurt and misused.

It was best for all parties that he moved on. I wish him luck. Personally, I think he took a lot of unfair criticism.
Seemed like he just didn't care, didn't wanna be here, and hell maybe he didn't, but he wanted a trade too. I commend him on playing where he wants for lesser money though, he's gotten what he needs money-wise from the game. His interviews and stuff just made it seem like he didn't care and had a sour attitude towards playing here.
