Sean Taylor

Unbelievable that he was able to avoid jail time in the holdup case. It's pretty ridiculous the naivete of the young man who keeps getting himself in trouble. He's got all the right folks around him, from a great supporter in Gregg Williams to a fatherly role model in Joe Gibbs to hard working fellow Miami alum in Portis and Santana Moss. Yet he continues to screw up.

It's like Michael Westbrook all over again except that Taylor doesn't have the injury/health question. And he's more talented. And seemingly more dedicated to making himself a better player.

The Skins are lucky to be even getting playing time out of him because of his off-field antics. Let's hope he can make it a full season.
