"He flashed a few times [in Monday’s practice] and I was glad to see that," Giants coach Tom Coughlin said of the 6-foot-4, 228-pound Taylor. "Big, strong man — if we can keep him healthy and he can stay out there …" Coughlin did not finish the sentence, but his assertion spoke volumes. |
I'm hoping Moore will be one of those who benefits.
Eff you. I'm a Taylor and my initials are CT. =)
Good one Milton!
Yep.
His physical problem in college was a heart condition which has absolutely nothing to do with his injury from last year.
Other than that, dead-on analysis!
I'm hoping Moore will be one of those who benefits.
Hopefully the DL competition is as open as the S competition. I would love to see Moore, Wynn, and OO get a legit shot to pass Ayers, Selvie, etc on the depth chart. On the inside, hopefully Ellis and Bromley can move Kuhn and Jenkins down the depth chart.
Silver lining to JPP's absence is that there are more snaps for Moore, Wynn, and OO to prove themselves or at least grab the coaches attention.
5th round picks aren't "reaches". At that point in the draft everyone is a flawed prospect.
Other than the heart condition, I don't see any other missed time. Just curious what injuries he had in college

They seem to praise the guy when he has a chance to show something.....but we all know what his main problem is.....this was another reach/project by Reese.....he took a guy with physical problems, hoping that they would just go away.....if he is injured again this year, it's another blown pick...if he stays healthy and contributes, finally one of those picks has paid off...This defense needs all the help and breaks it can get...

All fifth round picks are equal.....some are just more equal than others....

He had a broken hand, in fact I think he might have broken both of his hands (at different times). Still no relation to the hamstring injury he suffered in 2013, or the broken sesamoid bone he suffered in 2014.
Point...I think it's about luck as much as a predisposiition and he his as likely as anyone else to go through the rest of his career without an injury.
I remember Sims being injured early on and got the rep.for brittleness.
For now, I dare to dream about two huge tough safety's become an integral changing part of a defense that could be among the top five or six in football. And btw, I think Buffalo not Seattle is going to be the best defense.
Not trying to run the guy down, but to say his only injury history was the heart issue is just not accurate.

Look, for all we know Taylor could end up being the next Gerris Wilkinson. Tons of talent, can't stay healthy. Or, he could end up being the next Kam Chancellor - Gil Brandt's comparison, not mine. I'll keep praying that it's the latter, not the former.
cough La'el cough
they didn't want to use their only other temp IR tag. Still don't get why the NFL doesn't just fix the issue and Goodell wants to add more games.

Separate and apart from his heart issue. Can't research it on my iPhone but it's out there.

The injuries are all related- they all happened on him. No one said he's got a single bad body part, the problem is that he's been injury prone.

Timing is everything :)
