    Default No Taylor For Us

    Well its official, Jason Taylor took less money to return to his home in South Florida. It was a nice romance in our thoughts of possibility getting him, but its all good. We can still get some good free agents, we just need to step it up.

    Jason Taylor agrees to one-year, $1.1 million deal with Miami Dolphins - ESPN

    One yr, $1.1mm???

    Seems like a team like the Chiefs that is desperate for pass rushers with 3-4 experience and a team that is flush with cap room would have made an offer better than that.

    Lost opportunity.

    Fine with me, I didn't think he would be a good solution for KC.

    Maybe we did. He could have taken less money not to move.
    SHUT IT

    In the interview I read, Taylor said" Whatever money you guys can give me, that's fine, lets just get the deal done" So obviously, he always had plans on going back to Miami. Oh, well hopefully Hali will get back to being a pass rusher.

    Sounds like if Miami offered him a coffee and a donut he would have taken it.

    You're right. He's always been a warm weather guy and his family lives in the Miami area. He didn't want to go any place else.

    The Chiefs obviously didn't want him too bad.

    Or maybe he didn't want to come here? I'm fine with passing up Jason Taylor. What I read was:

    1) that he was looking to end his career where he started it

    2) Looking to stay close to home.

    JT is done after this year you heard here first.

    Taylor sees this year as his last real shot at a ring. Miami is an up-and-coming division winner. Where he played for over a decade and where his family and friends are. He doesn't need the money.

    We could have offered him triple and we would not have gotten him.
