Redskins trade for Jason Taylor (updated)

I feel this was a good trade for the Redskins. Taylor is a dominate player and our defensive will be that much better. Not taking anything away from Philip Daniels, but Taylor has the creds and he will be a force our "D". Welcome to the Redskins, Jason.

so...any of you know what we do with Buzbee and Daniels?
I figure the ideal situation is to cut both and not take up a roster space on IR.
What is the impact to the cap?
Can this be done?

I still say we need to sign a run stuffing end or a solid DT and absolutely still need an experienced OLB

Buzbee has minimal effect, only $ 370K this year. Daniels is a larger number, about $ 2.7M in salary. Either way, I don't believe you can release a player who is injured until the off-season, or if you do you still are liable for their salary and cap #.

The cap/contract folks would need to confirm this.

is schneed out there?
I smell injury settlements with release...only I don't know if we can afford it unless it is all salary

These "showy" types concern me because he could end up like Deion Sanders...all bling, no bang. Time will tell whether he's using us or not.

Jason Taylor and Dieon Sanders are two very different people in my opinions. Taylor likes the limelight but he always seems to have a bit of humility. Sanders on the other hand will dance and talk at all times even if his team is loosing.

I can't believe I'm going to say this, but if Madden is right :doh: then Daniels salary will not count against the cap since the team has him on IR. And on top of that you can't release a player who is injured, the Shaun Alexander saga this past offseason proved that.

Should Taylor make an easy transition to LDE , having both Ends getting up field changes the play calling for the Opp's Off. Cord. As long as we do not suffer in stopping the run , our DB's are much better . This move could put some more zip in other vets like Griff and M Washington . I do not know if Blache likes to blitz , but are lb's will have more gaps to run through when we dial one up . Of course , with AC and JT coming off the edge , we might not need to blitz ?

I don't know how legit this is, or who it might be. But there's a rumor supposedly that the Redskins are picking up another veteran DE in a couple days (a "run stopper).

I don't know who it is. I know there's talk of Eric Hicks coming to camp, but I don't think he's who is being talked about

well..this guy is 6'6" 280...that sounds like a run stuffer end to me

Shouldn't they be looking to bring in a DB or LB instead of another DE?
