Sean Taylor as a user card?

Anyone done this and can testify to the quality of it? Thinking of replacing Blount/Curl with this one and might go ahead and do it if I find a good deal on it. Could use the speed upgrade. 90 zone is nice for those occasions. Also let's address that elephant in the room - what's he like in man on those occasions you end up off of him when the ball is snapped?

He’s great as a user. He will get absolutely torched if you try him in man coverage, so don’t even think about it lol. Even in just hb out routes, he is completely lost and trailing by like 10 yds. If youre concerned about not being able to get back to him in time, you can run that cover one with a mid zone (assuming you’re putting him in the box).

Had him early. Moves good, hits hard. Not tall, so you notice that some. Great deep in zone. Worse than a left guard in man coverage. Don’t recall him ever doing anything well except play the run if he was in man coverage all by himself.

Ugh yeah I could see this being a problem because I built my team around man coverage (it's more budget friendly for the most part and I'm NMS) so I might have to do something else here. I would obviously try not to get off the user but sometimes things do happen and gotta account for that before I git gud or whatever.

Sean Taylor is 6'2, that's not tall?

I still have him at user, alongside maxed out Eric Berry. He does well at stopping the run (play a lot of nickel,) and in zone, but he's toast if you ask him to cover a TE or RB in man. They really did him dirty in that regard.

I still user him and Simmons and he moves better than Simmons to me I usually never man him up unless I’m blitzing and I know he’ll have to cover for 1 second on a tight end.

Taylor still one of the best users around right now. I personally like kam or simmons better as the user though.

I certainly thought about kam but one concern there is HIS man rating is a bit low. Although it's not so low that he's useless, but it's still a potential problem. What's your experience been there?

Been my user since he dropped hes great at it as usual. Like the other guy said his man is a joke but if youre usering thats mitigated out of it. If you arent usering make aure hes always in zone or blitzing and youll be fine.

sean taylor is an elite user. i have 89 picks with that card. usering isaiah at the moment though because of the extra 2 inches (pause) but sean is probably just as good if not better. he’s super smooth

As a user man coverage does not matter. 90 blockshed does!

I ended up finding Chancellor for about 130k coins and went for it after selling Kurl for about 120k, minus taxes. So far seems like a good investment. Solid user for sure.

Taylor is one of the best users.   Its worth the investments.
