[quote=firstdown;513725]His 1 1/2 sacks are really going to bring the other teams fighting to sign him. Mabe we could even get a few teams fighting for him and throwing draft picks at us to make the deal happen.[/quote]

Only 4 million per sack!!! Going once....going twice.... Anyone? Hello?

The first step to improvement is being able to realize the truth. He isn't for what we got out of him this year.

Suppose he was willin to take a pay cut. What options are avialable with no cap in 2010 and in career almost over. Could he just say "I'll play for four mil," and we make the other four disappear

I'm not either! I'd settle for [B] .8[/B] mil and contribute just as much even at near twice his age!

:laughing- Split it with me and I'll go with you backrow. Maybe between the 2 of us we can get a couple of sacks.

I like his honesty. Good for him.

Now I'd like Vinny Cerrato to man-up and say he made a mistake. Three draft receivers have been BUST so far. Vinny bet on a 35 year old DE - Philip Daniels [injured one the first game of Pre-season]; then in desperation they bet on another old DE.

Vinny needs to start drafting for the trenches and stop going for the flash
(receivers). Until we start drafting for the OL and DL we will be an average team or worse.

Makes you wonder if he doesn't want us to bring him back the way he puts it

well now as I recall I think a lot of people were in favor of getting Taylor even before Daniels went down.

[quote=SmootSmack;513581]I thought the part where he says he can still play and implies that he's not being used right here is being overlooked.[/quote]

Exactly!! I think the guy is Superman or at the least Dr. Fantastic for not shredding every ligament in his leg when the pile fell on him earlier this year, but here he basically admits that he's a right end and if left alone at right end then he can get off. But we're "not using him right" which is why he's not worth $8 mil and why he only has 1.5 sacks.

Let's not bring him back, let Evans take over that position and draft some depth. How about building from the ground up instead of always building top down?

well heres the truth, greg blache doesnt use him right. if you bring jason taylor here and want him to be phil daniels then you are a retard. this guy is a 3-4 rush linebacker who puts his hand in the dirt on the edge. call it what you want but the truth is in a 3-4 scheme he is still worth the money miami contracted him for....he had 11.5 sacks last year, in a 3-4 scheme. comes to washington and now his number 1 priority is to stop the run? not his strength at all but he is ok at it. but you want 8 million out of taylor, get rid of blache who wanted to retire last year anyways. bring someone in here that isnt stubborn and will uses his talents and free him up to rush the passer.....thats when he will be worth 8 million, but we all know that wont happen and as long as blache is the def coordinator jason taylor and the rest of our dline will be a non factor.

Re: Jason Taylor says he's not worth $8 million
 
I think people forget that Taylor was a damn good player on a team that went 1-15 last season. Once again, unless you were a f'ing psychic, no one could have predicted JT's injury. Honestly, the only people that were against this deal are the people that always roll their eyes at any Redskins free agent acquisition. Yes, the team's track record is not that great on free agent acquisition, but once again, no one could have predicted his injury. I hope he sticks around for one more year (restructured contract) to prove himself. I don't think JT would like to bow out with a performance like the one he's had this year.

Make that a sack and a sack/force fumble. We should give this guy another year.

glad he was there to make a play today, otherwise, we'd have lost 6-3
