Sean Taylor Cap Ramifications

To be honest I dont think that the Redskin's job. That's why people have wills. I sure hope ST had a will/trust/whatever to make sure that the millions of dollars he made playing professional football would go to help provide for his daughter's future and anyone else he wanted his money to go to.

As a sidelight, this is a reminder that anything can happen to anyone at any time so please everyone on the Warpath get to a lawyer and set up a will/trust and durable power of atty in case something happens. Your family will be thankful you did.

Very good advice.

As this terrible day goes by I just wanted to post an update - I read that Sean Taylor's attorney has already handed over all his files to the police in connection with the previous ATV theft case from a couple years back and police will surely be investigating if there is any connection with the murder.

I know it won't bring him back but hopefully it will lead to the arrest of the killer(s).

ESPN - Pasquarelli: NFL examining salary-cap impact - NFL (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/columns/story?columnist=pasquarelli_len&id=3130491)

by reading that....it looks like he'll have a greater cap hit if anything

Just wondering if anyone knows (Schneed) what are the salary cap ramifications of Sean Taylor's tragic death? Does the NFL grant cap relief for something like this? How does this effect the Redskins cap?

This post is very disappointing and inappropriate-and yet very premature especially from a "redskins fan"

Well...I wouldn't call someone's fandom out on that...it is premature...but I'm sure its gone through most of our minds even if for a brief moment. In the end though, you're right...Sean Taylor and his family first...salary cap second

I'm hoping the link I posted will answer the questions we may have as best as possible right now and preclude the need for any further discussion on the matter at this time.

I'm not surprised this question would come up. At a time like this a lot of us are desperate for good news, myself included, and as curious as I am to learn the answer to this question I agree with the people who feel that this is a little premature. Don't worry Bill_B, we'll know soon enough. Till then

You can feel terrible about Sean's death and still care about the state of the Redskins going forward. It's not an either or situation. There has not been 2 waking minutes that I have not been thinking about Sean...but at the same time I have also found time to wonder what will happen to the Redskins Organization as a result of it. I don't think doing that means that i care any less than anyone else who refuses to think football.
