Jason Taylor looks pretty old out there, I'm increasingly relieved we didn't go after him.

He's coming off an injury, it's early yet. But there was risk if you give the guy a 3 year deal. I see no risk in a one year deal.

The risk was largely "you had to give up draft picks to get him", as far as I'm concerned.

Second (2009) and a Sixth (2010).

Ouch....yes you are 100% right. Therein lies the risk.

Brandon Jacobs is a monster. I still wish I understood how neither team had a running game in the NFCC last year.
