J La is headed to the Comcast SportsNet studio to appear as a guest on Washington Post Live, so he asked me to put the word out on the Redskins rebuffing Miami's overtures to trade defensive end Jason Taylor, according to league sources.
Miami is seeking draft picks in exchange for the NFL's 2006 defensive player of the year, but the Redskins, who are actively trying to trade out of the 21st pick in the two-day draft that starts tomorrow, are not interested in Taylor, 33. Although Taylor, an 11-year veteran, had a typically productive performance in 2007 (56 tackles, 11 sacks, four forced fumbles and one interception), the Redskins do not see him as a good long-term fit with what they are trying to accomplish, sources said, and their stance is not expected to change.
