Re: Redskins trade for Jason Taylor (updated)

I don't think anybody did GIG lol.

As for my earlier statements, I'd like to clarify and say that after hearing that Cerrato is 100% certain Taylor will play more than 1 year and Taylor apparantly (not confirmed) as saying he will definitely play out the remainder of his contract and perhaps more, I am heartening up more to this trade. A lot of people have made the argument that if Taylor can perform like the elite DE he is for the next two seasons it will be a pretty even trade for a 2nd rounder, considering that elite DE's are hard to come by in this league and this move could help solidify and even bolster our pass rush to the better ones in the league.

I am slightly concerned about run defense though. Andre Carter and Jason Taylor aren't known as being good run stoppers, I thought Phillip Daniels excelled in that role and even though we are gaining a legitimate pass rushing threat to go on the other side of Carter, we are still losing talent in terms of Daniels' run stopping ability compared to Taylor's.
