Just wasn't interested in doing it in DC, didn't like the system or Blache or the org. who knows. But he gave up a lot to get outta here.

I look for JT to have an outstanding season wherever he lands!

I just hate to see the SKINS loss that 2nd round pick this year which we could desperately use that pick. And not a killer but a sixth next season. All when the return was so weak! As I clearly understand injuries happen, as life goes..it appeared that JT never liked it or wanted to be in DC, IMO.

Well, it has been reported before that he wouldn't be signed until well into training camps (just like when we got him). And the reason the Redskins wanted to have this "workout" agreement was because they wanted to make sure that he was going to be healthy and ready to go.

Well I'm just glad the Tuna is out of the NFC EAST and I don't really give a rats behind what JT does.

Taylor Launches Official Flirtation With Pats, Dolphins
Posted by Mike Florio on March 29, 2009, 10:08 p.m.

Amid increasing chatter that defensive end Jason Taylor could sign with the Patriots or reunite with the Dolphins, Taylor has semi-officially declared that both teams are possible destinations for him in 2009.

On Sunday night, Taylor was asked about recent comments from Pats owner Robert Kraft regarding the team’s interest in Taylor’s services.

“I did hear that. I can’t lie,” Taylor said, according to Tim Graham of ESPN.com. “I have not talked to Robert Kraft. We’ll leave it at that. Those things will sort themselves out, and hopefully in the near future so I can get back to work.

“But it’s great to be wanted. It’s great to be wanted. Sure, especially an organization like them or the Dolphins.”

Ah, yes. The Dolphins. It’s interesting how Taylor slipped that one in there.

So would he play for them again?

“Absolutely,” Taylor said. “There’s no reason I wouldn’t.”

It’s a far cry from a year ago, when Taylor wanted no part of a team that he regarded as a rag-tag bunch, mired in a protracted rebuilding effort. Now that the Fins are the defending AFC East champs, they look a lot better to the 2006 NFL defensive player of the year.

And if Taylor can get the Pats and the Fins to try to outdo each other in order to land him, Taylor will end up with a much better contract that he’d get if only of the them were interested.

Taylor ultimately was traded by the Dolphins to the Redskins in July for a second-round pick. The ‘Skins cut him earlier this month after he refused to tie a portion of his 2008 pay to participation in offseason workouts.

Here's the actual ESPN story on this. As with most people, I take anything said by PFT with a grain of salt (especially anything about the Redskins, since apparently everyone on the team kicked Mike Florio on the groin or something).

New England Patriots get Jason Taylor's attention, but Miami Dolphins still on mind - ESPN

mainly Parcells saw an opportunity to get rid of a problem child and a bonus of getting picks. Good GM move on his part. (and I am not knocking VC here, cause I thought it was a solid move for us too at the time)

I thought it was a good move for us at the time as well. In hindsight though, we got robbed.

I wasn't crazy about the move but I could understand the thinking behind it. Either way we got screwed.
