While it is sad, it happens everyday. Since they play for the NFL, the media focuses on it more then if they were your average, every day person.
There are a few factors for it though.
2 out of the 3 happened at night clubs. The jealousy people have for the players, combined with the belief that respect is everything and alcohol, led to someone making a bad decision that affects many people's lives.
Sean Taylor's death was just an extremely tragic case of wrong place wrong time. Granted, it was his home, but if he wasn't injured at the time, he would have been on the road with his team. He was shot in one of the worst places, an artery in the leg. On the surface, a shot to the leg is not considered fatal. But, it hit in one of the worst places.
