Jason Taylor and the Miami Dolphins finally split. The Dolphins on Sunday traded Taylor to the Washington Redskins for a pair of draft picks.
Taylor expressed on video how unsatisfied he was with losing. Going from the 1-15 Dolphins to a Redskins team that has a legit shot at making the playoffs should satisfy Taylor’s hunger for winning.
In return for Miami’s defensive ace, the Dolphins got a second round pick in the 2009 NFL Draft and a sixth round selection in the 2010 NFL Draft. Considering that training camp is coming up quickly, the Dolphins were able to get a good package for their disgruntled lineman.
On the Redskins, Taylor’s main job will be rushing the passer. If the 33-year-old defensive end can cause havoc in the 2008 season, Washington will be happy with the trade.
How much better will Jason Taylor make the Redskins?
