Sean Taylor, 1983-2007
The NFL lost yet another of it's great young players. Sean Taylor passed away due to injuries suffered from a gunshot incurred when his home was robbed. Taylor was one of my favorite players in the league because of his performance on the field. I remember someone saying he played "like he was mad at the world"...and surely would have been one of the better safeties in NFL history had he had the chance to fully develop into the All-Star he would have. Unfortunately, he will never have that chance.
