Jason Taylor contemplating retirement

[rickytickycamaro]

Jason Taylor is frustrated with the Dolphins organization, he came out saying that he might retire. With the current status of the Dolphins, Nick Saban will be meeting with the Bama boys this week, I believe he could be our modern day Charles Haley. You saw yesterday we have no pass rush, this guy is exactly what we need to get pressure on oposing quarterbacks.

[DallasDomination]

I'm down with that!:D

[the kid 05]

I've always liked J.T. he could teach Canty how to get up faster too, as they are pretty much twin brothers with thier builds 6'7" aboot the same weight.

Is part of that is frustration with the 3-4ish thing they run?

He's a great player but he'd cost big time. If Saban sticks around though, a deal involving Spears, a first day pick, and someone else might he somewhat realistic.

I live here in Miami and Jason Taylor calls weekly to a radio station 790 the Ticket (the only station T.O has his show) he is frustrated by the insecurity of now Nick Saban talking to Bama, and he getting up there in age. This is the right time to make a run at him.

[Word Mofo]

I would freak out of we got him. He is one of the best! Jerry - make it so.

[rexrobinson]

If we could get him without breaking the bank or selling a soul to the devil, he could be an asset for a year or two.

[ConcordCowboy]

Saw something today that Bama was offering Saban something like 8-10 years at 40 or more Million.

That's going to be hard to pass up. I really think Saban is a college coach at heart.

Taylor is the kind of player who could be a great pass rusher for another 4-5 years.

[Alexander]

I remember when Taylor was coming out of Akron, I watched one game of theirs and thought how much he reminded me of Charles Haley. I wanted us to draft him badly.

To make matters worse, that was the year we took David LaFleur number one and while he was a good player, Coakley has never come close in terms of impact.

[Cajuncowboy]

I would trade a second and a player but not Spears, Canty or Ware. Maybe a second tier guy like Glymph but I don't think that would make Miami get off of Taylor.

that is always hard to judge, he is contemplating retirement now for who knows what reason.

Are you serious?

I would trade Spears for Jason Taylor even if I knew he only had two or three seasons left.

sign this bad boy now!

[ConcordCowboy]

I'd trade just about anyone except Ware to get Taylor.

Taylor and Ware...Would be a nice Duo.

It would be a thing of beauty that even Zimmer couldn't ruin ROFL!

[Bleu Star]

Wow! Get this done Jerry!

[VA Cowboy]

Taylor was drafted almost ten years ago.

Why would we give up a high draft pick for an aging veteran?

(Besides the fact Jerry is our GM)

[Cbz40]

Well Jerry get the check book out.....Get it done sooner rather than later.

:lmao:

[miamicowboy21]

Taylor can be had, because the dolphins need bodies. They have something in the range of 21 free agents, and are looking to get younger. I agree we need to make a push for him.

[rexrobinson]

Will Jason Taylor even a free agent this offseason? If he retires won't Miami retain his rights? I don't know all the ins and outs of that but I do know one thing...money talks and we can get anyone we want for the right price.

If we stay in the 3-4 and I hope we do with the personel we have, I would love him opposite Ware but not at the cost of trading first round picks or hurting us in the salary cap.

FAs over 30 have not panned out as well as we have hoped in recent years.

[Biggems]

for the kinda jack we would have to throw at Taylor, I would rather get a younger Dwight Freeney.....

Too be honest I don't want the spend the money on either....I would rather spend the money to get some OL help and then on Adalius Thomas.

[Big Country]

No they're not even close in build...

Canty is 6'7" and 300

Taylor is 6'6" and 255

[cowboy4eva]

I don't get it... Taylor says he might retire and now everyone wants to "sign" or trade for the guy?

[Bleu Star]

Yes! That's just a cry for help. The guy doesn't want to retire. If I were still young and I didn't want to eat those lima beans my mother kept trying to shove down my throat I might fake a stomach ache or two. ;)

Yeah its code speak for I don't want to play for a loser team anymore and I am sick of busting my hump day in and day out just to line up with guys who mail it in every week.

[cowboyfan4life_mark]

What is his current contract status?

[Word Mofo]

I hope he didnt watch the Lions game then

He better be careful... The Dolphins sue you if you retire when you have years left on your contract. See Ricky Williams
