Porter: Taylor could be on way to Patriots

This is sad. Coming off their surprising run to the playoffs, tMiami's leaders are whining in the press. Have they no confidence at all? What message does this send to the locker room if they don't sign Taylor?

If I were a Miami fan I'd be upset to be reading these stories in my local paper and hope they trade him on draft day.

well what are the pats waiting for??!?!? they do NOT want to have to play vs taylor next year.

Sign Taylor now. He would be the perfect stop gap at OLB plus who better to help groom the young OLB/DL they will inevitably draft?

he said he would not want to go to a hated rival of the dolphins
a team he played for, for 11 years
if the fins sign him now they will have to give back there sceond round pick to washington due to a clause in the contract

All one needs to remember is that Porter is a washed up Squealer who's last chance is with Miami... He has made numerous comments against the Patriots concerning the Squealers loss to the Pats in the play-offs when he was on the way out.

Parcells does not want this guy back. He has a terrible work ethic and picked a dancing show over his teamates. Kind of what has happened to Tom Brady. First 8 years it was Patriots first everything else 2nd. Now it's girlfriend/eligitamate kid, family dog or goat and then may be the Patriots. Should have kept Cassell, younger and hungrier.

The Pats have probably locked up Taylor - I'm sure BB has gotten Taylor's agreement to join the Pats. I don't think Bill Parcells will take him back. But the Pats won't sign him at this time because Taylor won't be doing the off-season program that most Pats are doing right now. So signing Taylor now - and then him skipping the program entirely - would not be a good start with his teammates. Expect Taylor to sign after the off-season program is over. (Taylor knows that Parcells is not going to resign him, but he's smart to lay the problem at Parcell's feet so Taylor can comfortably sign with the Pats but still be admires and liked in his hometown of Miami. It was Parcells fault - Taylor tried, but Parcells said no. Miami fans will not blame Taylor. Smart.)

Jason didn't look good when he played last year. Maybe it was injuries. Maybe he is better. Maybe not. Don't get your hopes up too high for this guy. Parcells wasn't happy with his work ethic last year. That's why he was let go by Miami in the first place. What is he doing now to get in shape for football at his age?

Taylor played with the Redskins last year and was injured most of the year. Two years ago, Parcells wasn't happy with him and he was, I believe, traded to the Redskins.

keepinitreal, or should I say keepinitstupid!haha
dude, you are definitely neurlogically challenged! haha
The last time we saw Tom Terrific(excluding early first qtr of first game "08") he was leading the Pats down the field and into the end zone for a go ahead score against a ferocious Giants defense with mere minutes to play in the Super Bowl!
Not his fault that defense did not get it done!
I am sure, I am one of many to call you a "MORON"!hahaha

@Steve44: Yeah, that makes some sense. But, God, it's so annoying to see this storyline, day after day after day, every single day, (It's almost as bad as hearing about Julius Peppers.) listening to him "shop" outloud for his contract. Like, doesn't he have an agent or someone that can make sure his name's in all of the Florida papers? Although, I'd have to think that if it was his agent doing the talking, the media would be more comfortable addressing his performance in Washington and how that contract played out.

Actually, Taylor’s departure from the ‘Phins is not too not unlike the situation with Culter: A new coach/GM comes in, sees a commodity in an over-valued player, “fails” to go out of his way to make the player feel special. The player takes the bait and publicly forces the trade. The suit then cashes in on draft-picks/cap-space/the chance to re-build the team in his own image & gets to take credit for any success going forward, while the player’s out in the cold. Where I’d disagree with you is how quickly the fans forget in light of some of that success, like Miami had last year and like Denver will probably have this year.

The pats are as good a pick as any team this year to win it all. I hope they bring back Junior Seau late in the season - he earned and deserves his ring.

patswinyoulose,

Couldn't have said any better myself.
He's definitly a looooooser!!!!!

THE BIG QUESTION-- WHAT DOES TAYLOR HAVE LEFT??? AND-- WHATEVER THERE IS LEFT- IS HE WORTH IT??? BB WILL NO DOUBT LOOK AT TAYLOR-
REDSKINS 2008 GAME FILMS, AND DECIDE, TRYING TO DISCOUNT TAYLOR
NOT 100%, DUE TO INJURIES.

keepinitreal; You need to check on your stories before you go mouthing off..#1 sure Brady; s ex GF had a child BUT at Least the Kids DAD does spend time with him and PAYS support,probably something you dont do for your;s..I agree with other's in HERE you are a total Idiot/moron.anyone can read ur 1st few words and KNOW your Mommie keeps you in her basement.doesnt want "others" to know your the direct results of a "affair" with a jack-ass(Your Daddy)

Jason Taylor doesnt want to participate in the off season workout programs. There will be no deal made until the beginning of training camp. Once training cmp starts......He'll be a Patriot!!!!!

What is Porter talking about he cant say anything...seems he is saying plenty right now!!
