My only concern - no, not the injury thing - is that some other team will give him more of a shot to be a #1-ish type back. However, my spirits are buoyed by what his attitude has been during the Maurice Jones-Drew Era in Jax. If he's interested, I'll bet it gets done. He's a great fit.
Fred Taylor has always performed well in the past. However my concern is that Fred is coming off his least productive healthy season of his career. 500 yards in 13 games played along with a career low 3.9 ypc. Are the Pats getting on the bus too late, so to speak, with this 33 year old veteran runningback? images of Eddie George's final years pop to mind.
Fred Taylor: Career Stats
The Providence Journal reports that the Patriots and Bills have emerged as the "top landing spots" for free agent Fred Taylor.
New England likely views Taylor as a Corey Dillon-type addition who could battle Sammy Morris and Laurence Maroney for early-down carries. Buffalo is concerned with Marshawn Lynch's availability for next season following his arrest on three gun charges. It's worth noting that Bills head coach **** Jauron was on the Jaguars' staff when Taylor was drafted in 1998.
eh. I'd rather draft Devin Moore later in the draft

I think Fred Taylor has a lot left to offer and mentioned him a month or so ago as someone I was hoping the Pats would pickup as it was pretty clear he was getting cut.Fred Taylor has always performed well in the past.

The Patriots could host free agent Fred Taylor for a visit by as soon as next week, according to the Boston Globe
Taylor, 33, figures to command only a one- or two-year deal. The Pats don't have much cap room and probably won't be able to offer as much as Buffalo.
