Looking at Sean Taylor's first 3 years in the league, when he played full seasons these are his averages....

86 Tackles, .6 Sacks, 8 Passes Defended, 2.3 Interceptions & 2.3 Forced Fumbles.

We all know that stats are not the whole story, but those numbers aren't exactly unimaginable.

Brian Dawkins had 116 Tackles, 0 Sacks, 11 PD, 2 INTs, & 1 FF.

Jordan Babineaux had 104 Tackles, 1.5 Sacks, 6 PD, 2 INTs & 1 FF.
