Starting to open up to Sean Taylor...

I still like Kellen Winslow Jr. a ton, but Sean Taylor is a monster hitter and lining up next to Iffy would be great. Hopefully we can get a TE in free agency (Kliensasser, Johnson) and shore up the defense with a stud like Taylor

I feel the same way. It would be great to come away from the draft with a stud like Taylor, somebody who can make an impact right off the bat. The defense needs help!

Out of curiousity, does anybody have any ideas what happens to Matt Bowens if we draft Taylor?

I've read he's a great safety, but not the hitter than Roy Williams is.....is that true...does he have the size of Jones?

He's actually bigger than Jones and he's supposed to be a better hitter

Let me find you the article

Taylor is the one I've been watning for the last month and a half. I doubt we will get him now.

Why do you doubt it? I don't think we'll trade down

DOES BOWEN GO IF TAYLOR IS PICKED OR IS IT IFFY?

Looks good to me! :-)

I think Bowen goes

Texas Hog · Post by **Texas Hog** » Wed Feb 25, 2004 1:23 pm

I'm for one wouldn't be heart-broken. What is Bowen's cap # and/or implications if we cut him? Would he be too expensive of a backup?

bowen is under contract, and isn't going anywhere, if anyone goes, it would be iffy

unfortuantly he is NOT under contract, and is a RFA. if we offer tender but could get a pick in return, he could be a goner.

You must be thinking of Roy Williams

Unless the NFL allows the player to put Gloves on and hit people in the face...like Roy Jones (the Boxer)

thanks Bringthepain....brainfart on my part

Where does Williams find the time to play safety for the pukes and coach the tarheels in the offseason?

AND find time to play college football at UT... :hmm:

Texas Hog · Post by **Texas Hog** » Thu Feb 26, 2004 12:18 pm

speaking of that Roy Williams....is he figured to go in the 1st round?

hailskins666 · Post by **hailskins666** » Thu Feb 26, 2004 1:01 pm

yes, he's expected to be a top 10 pick.

Texas Hog · Post by **Texas Hog** » Thu Feb 26, 2004 1:27 pm

he seemed like a man amongst boys in college, but that's fixing to change.....kinda reminds me of a Rod Gardner type with a little better hands
