Will sign a 1-day contract to retire a Jacksonville Jaguar.

In his 11 years with the Jaguars he had 11,271 rushing yards, 2361 receiving yards and 70 TD's.

15th on the All-Time-Rushing list.

I don't know....

He was a consistently "good" back.
However, I don't think he was ever "elite".
He only has 1 pro-bowl, doesn't he?

^Yes. Remember that he was one of the two stars for an expansion team. He also rushed at the same time as Eddie George, Corey Dillon, Curtis Martin, Marshall Faulk, etc....

Fred Taylor probably would be a HOFer if he played for the Giants, Steelers or Cowboys. But no, he never received the media attention needed.

The guy above him and below him have been inducted into the HOF already. Will he be a first ballot guy? No, but I could see him getting voted in on his 3rd or 4th try.

Nope. When I think of star running backs during his prime, he's an afterthought.
