DirtySkin21 Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 This kid is huge and they said he hits like a linebacker (it must run in the family and he can cover like a corner. This kid is huge and is a redshirt freshman for florida state. I think we shoulddef keep this kid in our radar and watch his progression because personally id love to have someone else from that same pedigree and is big as that boy is. HE's even bigger than Taylor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfbovey Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Yeah, there was already a thread about him not so long ago. Will be interesting to see how he develops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MonkeySkin Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 How bout some help on the D-Line instead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drums and skins Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 How bout some help on the D-Line instead? Hopefully that is addressed in the next 2 years until this kid declares for the draft . Conversely, who knows if we'll actually need someone like this when he declares. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fwo40 Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 How bout some help on the D-Line instead? You do realize he was talking about a few years down the line and not this year right? Man I wish people would get off this auto "we need dl" answer to every question. :doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtySkin21 Posted January 7, 2008 Author Share Posted January 7, 2008 How bout some help on the D-Line instead? im not talking about this year, or even next. but you can never have too many great DB's. Im sure the line will be taken care of this year on both sides of the ball and prob next year as well when i say this year i mean 08' and next year i mean 09'. This kid is someone you def want to keep an eye on. Im sure he will play wit ha chip on his shoulder as well being ST's cousin. But for real, you can never have too many dbs. and its not like we didnt just lose a very important part to our defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtySkin21 Posted January 7, 2008 Author Share Posted January 7, 2008 i personally think he has everything going for him to be really good. Like i said, he comes from that same pedigree... if he's anything like his cousin being as big and fast as he is I would put money that he will be a top draft pick when he comes into the NFL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DGreenistheBest Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 I like the thought. Landry will have grown to the level that Taylor was playing at this year by then. It could be a second shot at what was meant to be for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siven Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 I think Anthony Leon has a future in the burgundy and gold. He's one guy i'd be ok with wearing 21. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lombardi's_kid_brother Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 I think Anthony Leon has a future in the burgundy and gold.He's one guy i'd be ok with wearing 21. Should we just make him a heroin addict now or should we wait until later? People did this to Ted Kennedy and he ended up driving a car off a bridge as a result.

Loxley Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 whoa, whoa, whoa..... do what?? I believe he is referring to the price of success visited upon the young and talented before they have matured enough to cope with that success. I could be wrong and he could just be being him.

I could be wrong and he could just be being him. we arent talking about 10 year old kids here. Labron james came out of high school at 18 and signed a hat? 90 million dollar shoe deal with nike? its all about how your parents raised you and how well you mature enough to handle adult situations. Im not talking about getting this kid now im talking about when he decides to go pro. He could cover burress easily being 6-4'', which not many dbs in the league can do. I will almost guarantee this kid will be nasty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#21Taylor4Ever Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 I knew the time would come when we'd start looking for the next Sean Taylor. I wont participate in anything like it. There is no next Sean Taylor, and the sooner we realize it, the sooner this team can move on with Landry and Doughy. Have faith in Reed!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HigSkin Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 I was almost hesitant to post because I saw there was exactly "21" of them but somebody advanced that number! Isn't it a little early to discuss this kid? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtySkin21 Posted January 8, 2008 Author Share Posted January 8, 2008 no one said anything about trying to find the next sean taylor. it just happens to be the fact hes sean taylors cousin. I just think we should def look at any family sean taylor has taht would go pro regardless of what position they play. and if they are good enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
