Jason Taylor Don’t Dance, and Your Daddy Don’t Rock and Roll
Proof that it’s a slow Bills news day:
Dolphins DE Jason Taylor was trumped by figure skater Kristi Yamaguchi on last nights season finale of ABC’s Dancing with the Stars. Who needs mini camps under a new coach (which he is missing due to his obligation to ABC) to learn a new system? I really feel bad for Jason. Everyone knows that a defensive player of the year trophy just doesn’t look right without a disco ball trophy sitting next to it. Now I’ve never seen Dancing with the Stars, but from what I understand, this could really help Taylor’s bid to get a trade out of Miami. We’re talking about a NFL veteran, team leader, only two years removed from a defensive player of the year honor, who can dance the hell out of the foxtrot. His new found notoriety can also put asses in the seats. He’ll be a real help to any team that’s looking to increase ticket sales in that pesky 60 year old Jewish woman market. OyVey !
But seriously folks……
A few Bills notes.
- Lee Evans is missing OTA’s today at One Bills Drive. J.P. Losman and Jason Peters are also absent from the days work outs.
-Word on the street is that first round pick Leodis Mckelvin is getting a lot of reps on the first team defense.
-Veteran free agent signee Will James (CB) is also impressing the coaches with his speed and quickness. Good to see it may not be corner by committee this season.
- New DT Marcus Stroud is very excited about the defenses’ potential. When asked if it’s too much to expect this defense to be in the top 15 league wide -
“Not at all. As a matter of fact I think that should be one of our expectations or goals to be among the top 15. We have the talent to do it. It’s a matter of going out there and playing hard. Even the guys you have rotating in it are a good mix. I think we definitely have a chance. Spencer Johnson, [John] McCargo, Ryan Denney, you have guys on this team who when one guy goes out, the other guy can come in and the level of play shouldn’t go down at all. That’s what we’re expecting“
…….The confidence is a nice change from last season.
