I'm going Richard Seymore. haha Just wwanted to pub my own guy. but I honestly think he is easily a top ten D lineman in the league. If you want to talk Pass rusher in the pure sense I think taylor is better but Strahan has great pass rushing skills as well and I feel he plays the run much better than taylor though taylor has improved over the years.
I think Taylor gets knocked a little because he is a little underweight for a DE. He does have some good skills, but I think he and Strahan are completely different types of players to be comparing them. I agree that Strahan is probably a little better at stopping the run, but I would take either one. Of course, look what I have had to compare to since Charles Haley left.
Strahan is a monster that is capable of changing a game all by himself. Taylor was held to 0 sacks and 1 takle by Artis Hicks on a MNF game that wa a must win for the Dolphins. Nuff said
Ya but he will never be 100% again after all the foot/ankle injuries so we'll just leave it there. Also Strahan is in on alot more plays than either of them and it is evident by his tackle numbers each season. He also has been healthy and I don't believe he has missed a game in a few years. The more I look at it the more I think Strahan because he is a complete lineman unlike Tayor or Kearse.

GF, you are not just arguing w/ any Phins fans. Dale is a class individual and I am (how to best state it?) - me.
i think taylor is the better player and a better person. Ever since strahan and favre orchestrated a sack to get strahan the record, i have begun to look at him as totally classless and think he and favre should not be allowed into hall of fame.
