    First Zach Thomas and now JT, eh? Wow, they've been the face of that D for some time.

    This is pretty much modus operadi for the Tuna though. I'm a little surprised, because neither of these guys had caused much trouble, and can still play. Maybe not cornerstones anymore, but not overpriced big name trash, either.

      actually it makes sense,

      Thomas didnt play much last year because of concussions.

      If your trying to rebuild a team, might as well get all the older players out and in return get something for them...

        I'd rather pick up Justin Smith from the Bengals. Think of it........two skinny white guys for DEs.

          Smith isn't really that skinny. He just signed with San Fran for 6 years/$45M with $20M guaranteed. He had 2 sacks last year, and I don't think he was injured.

            Don't forget that JT played in this defensive scheme before when Bates and Sanders were back in Miami. I don't know what position he played OLB or DE, or what his performance was. Should be interesting to follow, I don't know that he's worth a 2 and a 4, but I'd like him on the cheap.

              If it's a 2nd and 4th for Taylor, I don't like it.

                Hypothetically, if they were to trade for Taylor what becomes of KGB and his 7 mil? What becomes of Jenkins and his recently signed deal?

                In my GM fantasy, if we're in the mood to give up multiple picks for an impact DE.. I say we draft for depth with our high picks this year and say the hell with it and surrender the first and the third next year and pony up for Jared Allen right now, hoping the depth we add this year will make up for the lack of a 1st and a 3rd in 09'. Then trade KGB to a team with a needy pass rush for anything we can get.

                Hey, it's not that crazy if we are actually debating multiple picks for Taylor and his old arse.

                  The compensation would be two 1st round picks for Allen--unless a trade could be worked out. Let's not forget that the guy is one strike away from being suspended for the year.

                          Reggie White was no spring chicken when he came to Green Bay. Even when he got to Green Bay, he was not a dominant player. Although he commanded attention and Jason Taylor would do that too. Sometimes it's about the name not the age.

                                Find all the latest ProFootballTalk news, live coverage, videos, highlights, stats, predictions, and results right here on NBC Sports.


                                On Saturday, Jason Cole of Yahoo! Sports reported that the Dolphins and defensive end Jason Taylor are headed for an amicable divorce.

                                In response, Dolphins V.P. of football operations Bill Parcells says that Taylor won't be leaving.

                                Parcells told Chris Mortensen of ESPN that Taylor's options for 2008 will be to play for the Fins, or to retire.

                                "This latest report is just another example of journalistic irresponsibility," Parcells said.

                                Ouch.

                                Though we're not sure how this is all going to play out, we strongly believe that Taylor isn't interested in playing for the Dolphins in 2008. So if the choice is to play for the Fins or pack it in, Taylor might very well do the latter.

                                Especially if this Dancing With The Stars thing ends up being the gateway to the kind of Hollywood career that guys like Matt Leinart and Braylon Edwards can only dream of.
