The NFL trade deadline is Oct. 16 and that fact is important now only because the Dolphins should use the next four weeks to do the difficult thing and trade Jason Taylor. The idea of Miami trading its best player is neither new nor born of desperation, but rather, it is a logical move that demands serious thought, a move any straight-thinking NFL man would consider. The Dolphins obviously can't give away Taylor as if he was a discarded suit in an outlet store. So anything less than a first-round pick wouldn't make it worthwhile for Miami. It's a steep price but perhaps the Broncos, Colts, Seahawks, Cowboys, or even the Patriots, could be enticed into giving up such a pick for the 2006 NFL Defensive Player of the Year.

that would be a big pickup for any of those squads

Id love to get him on Dallas if it meant trading our pick, dont want to move the Browns pick

even being a franchise player and loved by the miami fans, i would say we should let him go...the point is that we are drafting so badly that this pick would probably be a waste...

And what do yuo replace him with?

brazilian_12 · 09-18-2007, 09:24 PM

we don't. it's going to be a long year for miami, with 2 losses and the pats the way they are it will be almost impossible making to the playoffs this year...so why not already think in renewing the team for next season....(i know this is only week 2 and i respect those who still have hope)

YOu cant just trade the face of the team IMO. He has been one of the great people in Miami for a lot of reasons. I wouldnt deal him he would retire a Dolphin...
