Sean Taylor now #21?

[SKINSnCANES]

I have the most amazing news!!! Well, for me atleast. I have been trying to find a Sean Taylor University of Miami Jersey for a year and a half. They didnt make many of them and stopped making them in december of last year.

I FINALLY FOUND IT!!!! I found it, brand new with the tags. Keep in mind that I lived in Miami last year, and went to every sports store in Miami trying to find it. So this definitly made my night!

no smoot was a rookie the year deion was here. Smoot was 23 his first year and then Deion left and he changed it to 21 because Deion was his idol growin up. Smoot didn't start either he was nickle.

I don't think that's right. Smoot was drafted by Marty in 2001 and Deion refused to play for Marty so he never played for the Redskins after his one season here in 2000

This sucks if Taylor did change his number!! I have 2 full size Redskin helmets with his autograph on them and on both he added #36 after his name!!

[SKINSnCANES]

I dont think its right either. I thought Smoot started right away, and the 3rd cornerback was Darrel Green. Definitly not Sanders.

My fault he didn't play with Deion he played the year after, but Deion must have been on the roster or something because Fred started with 23. I was at the redskins store in Dulles Town center over the summer and I saw a Fred Smoot 23 jersey and I almost bought it just because I had never seen one for sale. Smoot started 13 games his first year.

http://www.geocities.com/SouthBeach/...oster2001.html that is a link too a 2001 redskins roster it has smoot down as 21.

[Redskinsfaninnola]

I still dont see it posted anywhere. No one can post a link so i dont believe it. might as well say Brunnell is changing his # to 33 and Springs is changing his to 28. oh dont forget Portis changing again this time to 44.

Smoot came in after Deion, and he definitely never wore #23.

[PSUskinsfan11]

So they had misprinted jersey's at the offical Washington Redskins store?

[MTK]

Maybe they were printed before he chose his #?

I don't recall ever seeing Smoot in anything other than #21, but I do remember a story about him asking Deion if it was ok for him to wear it.

But Deion was definitely not on the Skins at the same time as Smoot. Like someone said earlier Smoot was drafted by Marty and Deion never put on a uniform for him.

Perhaps Smoot was #23 before Deion officially retired, but he never actually wore #23?

If you go to Seans Officall Website (which appears to be pretty new); on the message board "Sean Taylor" says that he is going to be keeping the number; and changing was just a thought. Weather its really him or not, I have no clue, but its a cool website nonetheless. Check it out.

That is a pretty sweet website.

And if someone just MADE that up and posted it on his website, that would be extremely corny.
