One of the great players from our former chief rival is retiring. Jason Taylor is calling it a career after 15 seasons in the league. Does anyone remember the DE we took just a few picks before JT was selected by the Dolphins? Hint: he left for San Diego with John Butler.

Marcellus Wiley. Now I'm depressed. I always liked him.

Yup, Marcellus was a good player for the Bills, and we only had him for 4 seasons. It would be great if ONE of these days, a Bills 3rd round draft pick ended up being a regular pro-bowler.

Taylor would have been a perfect fit for the Bills 3-4 as an OLB. He had a great postseason of bowl games and workouts and was considered a possible first rounder (but what does Mel Kiper know, right?).

 

But in the 90's not nearly as many teams ran 3-4's and guys like Taylor were considered tweeners and would often slip on draft day.

 

They were ripe for the picking every year but the Bills did not do as well at acquiring them as their chief competition for 3-4 talent, the Steelers, did.
