Quote:Everything about the Fred Taylor situation was handled better than the way things played out for MJD.  Unlike Drew, Taylor accepted the role of mentor here in Jacksonville, and was willing to take a different role in the offense toward the end of his time here.  He didn't hold out, and he continued to work hard to maintain his physical conditioning.

 

After he was gone, he never took shots at the team.  He was rewarded once his career ended with a spot in the Pride, and he was embraced by the organization and the fans as if he'd never left. 

 

MJD could have learned a thing or two from his mentor about doing things the right way.  He chose to listen to his agent.
