Taylor has just signed with an Agent!

skins009 · 07-20-2004, 04:34 PM

Yes the news we have all been waiting for, Tayler has hired an agent. Apparently he has chosen Eugene Mato to represent him. Hell i'm happy with anybody other than the Postons. It also says on the post that the team is goning to begin neg. immmediately. The only good I can see coming from his long delay is now hopefully Roy Williams and Phillp Rivers will sign before Tayler which will make neg. easier.

Who are your sources?

Skins009-the bearer of good news! Do you have a link to the story?

Redskins_P · 07-20-2004, 04:41 PM

I predicted by the end of next week, but hey this is even better.

Fellas, does this mean we'll be able to see him Aug. 9th?

Redskins_P · 07-20-2004, 04:43 PM

Hallelujah!!!!

SkinsRock · 07-20-2004, 04:57 PM

Finally....Thank god!!!

Now get those negotiations started!!
Speaking of that, does anyone else find it odd how teams (esp. the Skins) can sign FA's almost immediately after they're allowed to negotiate with them, but it takes everyone so long to sign high draft picks? Especially considering there is only a specific amount of money allocated for rookies. Also, why do they (all teams) almost always wait until the last couple weeks to do it? I don't get it...

Well, they have 10 days before camp to get him signed, so I certainly hope so. Personally, I think there will be a deal in place.

To quote Homer Simpson: WoooHooo!

Everybody's trying to get a feel for the market. The Redskins set the market prices.

skins009 · 07-20-2004, 05:06 PM

Teams want to see that the players before and after got paid so they have a benchmark to start at.

I was getting really worried, its not a good first impression to make on Gibbs, and we really need him this year

memphisskin · 07-20-2004, 06:24 PM

I see this deal getting done quickly, Snyder negotiates the contracts and he doesn't want to present Gibbs with any speedbumps heading into the season. I can't wait to see #36 out on the field!

Thanks for the post skins009 I was begining to worry.I was just watching around the horn and they mentioned how Taylor had not signed with an agent yet.I said uh-oh its getting into the national media this cant be good.
Now all he needs to do is sign his contract and I can stop being worried about it.
