I dont think so....
Would YOU unload Jason Taylor for less than a 3rd?
NO WAY....I probably wouldn't do it for a 2nd...he's just that good.
(and now very flexible and unlikely to get injured due to this crazy dancing gig)
Honestly...post draft...any trade talk is likely to get his to consider restructuring to bring down his cap hit....
If anyone gets him for less than a 2nd I'd be suprized...Parcells aint dumb.
But I'd still hope we'd offer him a 3rd and hope we get lucky.
He would instantly upgrade our most questionable position, short and mid term.
NO ONE that is that buff only has 2 years left

Hell no. The Raiders were the dumb asses in that deal. They should've got at least a 2nd round pick. NE came out ahead. Way ahead and that's what we need to start doing when we try and get FA's. Instead we give up draft picks for Brunell, Lloyd Duckett and so on.
How many years do you think Taylor can play at a high level? One or two years. If you think we're one player away from being a SB contender then make the move. I just don't think we're that type of team.
If I were Miami I would just trade him away and get what I could. They're in 100% rebuilding moad. When they're ready to contend he is going to be long gone. I'd ask for a player and a 3rd rounder.
