Redskins trade for Jason Taylor (updated)

[mooby]

I like getting him as a replacement for Daniels but I think the price was too high. A 2nd rounder (the 6th rounder I'm not really concerned about) for a guy that is going to play 1 more season at most? I feel that if a team gives up a second rounder, they should either be getting, an A. young valuable player with lots of upside who has room to grow and become an impact starter for years, or B. a guy who is in his prime who can immediately contribute for at least 5 more seasons. Taylor is a guy who is a proven commodity but has also expressed his desire to retire after this season and he's at least 33 years old, which means his performance next season isn't guaranteed to be as good as his last.
