Dolphins Want a 1st for Taylor. Really?

May 27, 2008 · Written by: Butler 

Well after a break from writing over the Memorial Day Weekend I am back although there is not much news to report . But this really baffles me, The Dolphins wanting a 1st for Jason Taylor. He is a great talent but really he is worth less than a 1st rounder, because he is more than likely going to decline in the next seasons. If the least offer for him is a 4th round pick, A 1st round pick would only be if Hell freezes over. But here is an excerpt from the article.

Bill Parcells likes to run things his way.

The former coach of four different NFL teams and current Miami Dolphins grand poobah doesn’t want owners, much less players, to tell him what to do.

After all, he’s the coach who once said that if he was expected to cook the meal, he should be able to buy the groceries (draft the players). So he walked out on the New England Patriots after the taking them to the Super Bowl following the 1996 season.

Now Parcells is proving that he hasn’t mellowed and is just as cantankerous as ever. Just look at his handling of the Jason Taylor situation.

Parcells is unhappy that Taylor is skipping the offseason program to, among other things, perform on ABC’s Dancing With the Stars. And even though Taylor likely will retire before the Dolphins become a contender, Parcells won’t trade him unless he receives a first-round pick.

It would be more succesful to go and look for a player for player deal rather than the picks since as concluded before nobody will give up that much for an aging player that they don’t know if his head is in the game still or not. If this is truely the asking price for Taylor expect him to be on the Dolphins come this season. He will more than likely have to play if he wants to earn his check. And If he doesn’t expect him to retire.
