Sean Taylor Poll

Sorry to rain on the parade, but I disagree with the very premise of the poll - especially in the light of the Greg Williams interview on skins.com where he says its misleading to call someone a defensive starter just because they're on the field for the first defensive series.

In Williams D, someone could be considered a starter if they don't play the first few series, but are on the field for most of the game.

Are we saying that we want Sean Taylor to be in a 100% of the defensive packages and Lott in 0% or a small minority of them? Not advisable - I'm sure the staff sees that Lott has strengths that Taylor doesn't yet, and would therefore be more suited to certain packages than the latter.
just a poll to generate some discussion on a slow day, don't look too far in to it.

they said that taylor was by far the best guy on the special teams units last week, that's a huge plus for him...

i personally want to see him stay on the field 60 minutes a game, he's insanely talented, BUT i understand he still needs to learn some details of the NFL game and that's why he's been held back a bit. hopefully he can learn the rest of the packages and rush opposite of bowen and cause some real nightmares ;)... imagine a safety with 12 sacks and 8 ints a season... I'm not usually so high on anyone, but i think he honestly could end up as the best safety in the league with some experience.

youre always trying to cause trouble you know that matty :)

I totally trust Gregg Williams and what he is trying to do. In his interview, he mentioned that his defense is designed to play a lot of players. And that the player that starts doesn't necessarily stay in the entire game. That's exactly what we need. I like all of you was very impressed with Sean Taylor, but let's face it we are not seeing the mistakes he made in practice and training camp. He did make a mistake in covering Joey Galloway and it almost cost him 6. So let's wait and see how much he is utilized.

Williams is considered one of the best defensive minds in football for a reason so I think I'll give him the benefit of the doubt with this one. Williams knows how much of a monster he has in Taylor but from some of the things said and done on the field, Taylor still doesn't seem to fully respect the speed of nfl wrs so while I'd love to see him on the field as much as possible cuz he's a huge playmaker, right now he could still be a big playmaker but in the wrong way if he doesn't respect the speed of the game.

I've got to stick with the coach. Clearly, he's the most physically talented safety we have - maybe the most physically talented player. We have the luxury of getting him ready to play mentally, which is something this coaching staff is willing to let happen. Taylor's going to see increasing action as he gets ready, and he's learning from a great staff.

im selfish, I want the big play potential guy in the game and I want him to win rookie of the year.

on one hand, the coach is the best yoyu can have and clearly has a clue...
on the other... TAYLOR IS A MONSTER
;)

He's a rookie, got a lot to learn, I'll let your coach decide when he's ready.
