Jason Taylor to re-sign with the Dolphins

Well it's not that other teams don't make mistakes. It's just the mistakes our FO makes are retarded as hell. The smart thing to do was not to panic and let Evans play. That 2nd round pick could've been used on a potential quality starter.....perhaps at RT. But there is nothing anyone can do about it now and it's time to turn the page on this one.

Or it's just that we are more closely attuned to these and don't give a hoot when another teams fan base is just as upset about a move or non-move their teams FO makes.

Lets face it, for good or bad, this FO is going to be aggressive in trying to make this team a contender. Sometimes that will be a great move like MW or bringing JG back, sometimes it will backfire like JT's signing. The only thing we can be sure of is that they are not going to sit on their hands and moan about the condition of the team. Hopefully, each move that backfires teaches DS a little more about football ownership, and that he will learn enough that when he gets to be Al Davis' age he's not grasping at straws.

Well if I recall correctly a pretty large majority of fans approved of the move at the time. If he doesn't get hurt things could have turned out much different.

Retarded moves happen all over the league not just with the Skins.

I'm glad someone pointed this out! When JT came last year everybody, including almost all the local commentators and national NFL analysts, applauded the move! Most people thought that getting a future HOF one year removed from being a defenvise POY for a 2nd round pick was a deal! The Fins were asking for a 1st+ leading up to the draft. Now, after he gets hurt and underperforms, everyone has about-faced and is calling the FO stupid for the move....hypocrisy anyone? It didn't work out people...get over it!

Thanks Matty for trying to speak some sense to the nay-sayers and jaded "fans"!

Nothing like bad excuses to bad moves.

A couple of people weren't crazy about it. But the majority loved the move. Plus some that didn't like it felt that way because they thought Taylor was too old to have any true impact anymore and that he was due for a drop in production (which happened of course), so I guess they think he'll flop in Miami too right?

I think he'll match his sack total from last year. Which at the cost they are paying for him, is pretty good.

But yeah, his days as a top player are over, it looks like.

The Titans traded us Albert Haynesworth for a third round pick from the league.

Now that is a crazy trade!

Well the main reason I wasn't for this trade was JT was not training during the off season, the price was too steep and we had a quality starter that could fill in for Daniels. I just wish the FO would have confidence in the players we have here instead of ALWAYS chasing other teams players.

Losers.

I didn't like the trade from the beginning. I would've rather that Evans and Wilson been given a chance and we keep our second round pick. Especially the way Wilson came on at the end the year before. I also didn't like the idea of MW being let go and the thinking that JT could take his spot. That kind of thinking was BS from the get-go. I realize MW wasn't let go because of JT, but thinking he could step in and play his spot was ridiculous IMO. But as misguided as it sometimes is, I still think the FO does what it thinks is best for the team. Unfortunately they thought JT would come in and get 10 sacks and Carter would possibly do the same and it didn't turn out that way. Time to move on. Rock and roll Orakpo! As far as JT goes, I wasn't that much of a fan before he signed with us, even less so now. I don't really care what he does.

JT is an idiot, he could have made 9 million here instead he is making 1.1 with the dolphins.
