Re: Blache Hopes Taylor Returns Next Year
 

He should restructure, although he should be just fine when healthy. You don't go from league MVP caliber to bust in one year. He was hurt. Give him a healthy season.

Re: Blache Hopes Taylor Returns Next Year
 

I say give him a new 2 year deal worth $8M.

Re: Blache Hopes Taylor Returns Next Year
 

As long as he restructures I wouldn't mind bringing him back.

I was thinking the same thing. He would still get his money but at a better deal for us. A more reasonable deal. I think he can still play ball at a high level.

Re: Blache Hopes Taylor Returns Next Year
 

Restructure and let him work for the 8 mil. I realize the guy was hurt for most of the season, but he has still produced very little. Restructure and get us a whole lotta sacks next season

Re: Blache Hopes Taylor Returns Next Year
 

No way in hell does the Jason Taylor want to say goodbye to football on such a low note. Talking w/ another fan watching the game today we thought his HOF likelihood might drop if he left things this way. Bottom line: Taylor comes back w/ 100% intensity next season and if he will take a cut I like him as a Redskin.

Re: Blache Hopes Taylor Returns Next Year
 

How's Blache know he's returning as the D coordinator next year?

Re: Blache Hopes Taylor Returns Next Year
 

I'm sure the FO wants to retain Blache. Jeez, w/ a revived Jason Taylor, a nice addition @ DT and not to mention A CONSISTENTLY GOOD OFFENSE were a strong playoff team in '09. Blache deserves his props.

We need to refresh the LB and DE spots.

Re: Blache Hopes Taylor Returns Next Year
 

I think Colt Brennan should play DE.

Re: Blache Hopes Taylor Returns Next Year
 

LOL^^

definitely, he would solve all the problems. As for JT(not Timberlake) we should keep him, restructure if possible, if not he is still a pretty good player when healthy.

he looked good dropping back in coverage and that strip was huge. I remember the beginning of the year he had a couple of tipped passes too.

He'll be back, unless he decides to retire. Otherwise, he has done nothing to lose his job. Besides, it will be nice to see the defense for a second year in his system, with a healthy Jason Taylor, a established D-Hall, a grown up Horton, and with hopefully some of the issues on the D addressed through the draft and/or free agency (LBs, D-Line Depth, DB Depth).

Re: Blache Hopes Taylor Returns Next Year
 

Watching the game, the biggest thing he did was mirroring Westbrook out of the backfield. What DE can do that? Obviously not Lorenzo Alexander. I was expecting more zone blitzing this year with him and Carter but Blache is real inventive and I'd like to see what he can come up with utilizing a healthy JT all year.

Re: Blache Hopes Taylor Returns Next Year
 

Isnt he signed through next year too? so he wont be going anywheres unless he retires and i dont think he will. we should atleast extend him a year or to but not at an outrageous price

Re: Blache Hopes Taylor Returns Next Year
 

I think yesterday was a taste of what JT could have been hed he been healthy but he's gotta restructure.

Re: Blache Hopes Taylor Returns Next Year
 

I said bring him back for the 8 million.............just because he's a feared defensive lineman and when he's healthy he'll make a huge difference. Also, because we overpay for everybody. So yeah, bring him back for 8 million.............

Re: Blache Hopes Taylor Returns Next Year
 

I say make it more like 7 mill. and make him play for the last mill. through incentives. He gets more of the money for each sack.

Re: Blache Hopes Taylor Returns Next Year
 

To quote Morpheus, "then I am glad it is not up to you," Blache.

Re: Blache Hopes Taylor Returns Next Year
 

Cut him and bring him back for less coin. No more than 3 million.

thats a good idea

Re: Blache Hopes Taylor Returns Next Year
 

I'm pretty sure there's a short list of things that are more dangerous then a healthy, motivated, and confident Jason Taylor. Time has now given him a relatively clean bill of health while this whole season provides him with all the motivation he'll need going into the off season, but it's this last game thats probably gone a long way towards restoring JT's confidence. And personally if he plays well against San Francisco I can see little reason to not bring him back assuming he accepts a pay cut.

Personally I doubt few people will train as hard as Taylor will this off season, unfortunately maybe dancing with the stars did more harm then good in terms of getting him ready for the season. A full offseason hitting the track and the weight room will probably go a long way towards returning Jason back to form.

Re: Blache Hopes Taylor Returns Next Year
 

I really hope he comes back next season. The Redskins gave up way too much for this guy to only have him for 1 injury-riddled season. I'd like to see him play a couple more seasons. I truly believe he'll be back in a big way next year.

HAIL!!

Re: Blache Hopes Taylor Returns Next Year
 

Taylor's best days are long gone. If he comes back and is a starter, then we can assume that the gross negligence of Vinny Cerrato continued in off-season 2009. And we are in trouble again. Other problem is, if you draft or sign a real pass rusher, Jason Taylor at $8 million in a reserve role really makes no sense for that kind of money.

amyone know the staus of Phil Daniels? he planning on coming back?

I think so, whether the front office has those same thoughts I don't know. I'd like to see him come back and play on the interior.

I want Taylor back, but he's gotta restructure the contract or go kick rocks.

I like the way Blache moved him around last game but i also think that Rocky Mac or Chris Wilson could have done the same thing.

Re: Blache Hopes Taylor Returns Next Year
 

how many years does he want to go, knowing that he likely won't get the ring?

Now way Jose!!!!!!! He had a very nice game against the Eagles for sure, but you don't give him that kind of money for what he gave you this season as a whole. Sign him for one more year with the option for a second with a restructured contract for a lower amount. Shouldn't give a guy a sweetheart of a deal for not being able to perform or subpar play for most of the season.

Re: Blache Hopes Taylor Returns Next Year
 

One stellar game doesn't make up for what was a no show season for JT. Plus you don't know if he will be healthy for all of '09. Spend the extra money on more FA's or draftees. JT isn't the future.

Re: Blache Hopes Taylor Returns Next Year
 

I think we should keep him and pay him. He's still a great player and finally getting healthy. A 2 year deal for 8 mill. We will see many more sacks from JT.

Isn't that what Shawn Alexander did?

Re: Blache Hopes Taylor Returns Next Year
 

RBs are different and Alexander had a beast line

Re: Blache Hopes Taylor Returns Next Year
 

Wonder what his offseason plans are.

Re: Blache Hopes Taylor Returns Next Year
 

here is the bottom line. who is it up to? does he want to play one more year? if so, then the ball falls into the redskins court. is he worth 8 million? not with his production. did he add anything to our defense? that's up to the coaching staff. you could probably sign 3 draft picks with that 8 million. or a pretty nice free agent. its all in what the skins management sees in Taylor

Re: Blache Hopes Taylor Returns Next Year
 

And, of course, no release fee since he's already been paid his bonus by the Dolphins.

I still think Jason Taylor can be worth 8 million to this team, but you know, if you need the money to sign someone to do the job better, there's no harm in calling an end to the experiment.

Agreed. He played well against Philly. That's only one game but he's been hurt as you mentioned. He also has nads, trying to play when he was too hurt.

Re: Blache Hopes Taylor Returns Next Year
 

bryan (cumberland, Md.): Jason Taylor, Brett Farve do you see either returning next year ?

Matt Mosley: (12:15 PM ET ) Taylor's not going back to Washington. I'm pretty certain about that. I bet he'll retire. Favre will drag this out and make a big production -- like he always does.

Re: Blache Hopes Taylor Returns Next Year
 

I honestly was hoping Blache would retire after this year. he can talk all he wants to about his top 5 defense, but in the end, he was the biggest handicap for our defense all year. I saw a post on extremeskins with a link to footballoutsiders that had a much more comprehensive set of statistics to rank defenses and ours was ranked 11th, which seemed closer to what we really are.

Agreed!! Jerry Gray should be promoted to DC so we don't lose him, unless he gets a HC gig which I doubt he's ready for. I think Gray is a young up and coming DC if given the chance.
