Jets Reach Agreement With Jason Taylor


So the wait is over, the chips have fallen and Jason Taylor is a Jet.

Agent Gary Wichard tells me Jason Taylor has agreed to join the New York Jets:

I'm very happy about this, it opens up a lot of options for us, it gives us a legitimate pass rusher opposite Pace.

Let's give the guy a clean slate, he is now a Jet, and as far as I'm concerned that's negates everything he has said while playing up to the Miami media.

127.5 sacks is the number that I'm interested in, like I have said time and time again, what he said was garbage generalizations to pull favor with the Miami media and fans, nobody should take it to heart. Booing your own players is ridiculous, regardless of what he said. Were all in for the common goal.

All that anyone should care about is getting to that 2010 Superbowl, and in my personal opinion and you can take it for what you will, Jason Taylor get's us a step closer. I'm sure his jersey will not be a best seller, but once he starts wreaking havoc in the Rex Ryan D, everything else will be forgotten.

He's got an attitude, that's a good thing when you produce, he can put some fire into you, hell maybe he can ignite the Kraken.

Jets and Dolphins on Monday Night Football to start the season was leaked earlier, well it just got a lot more interesting.

He's a helluva Football Player and a Leader in the Locker Room.

You guys will definitely grow to love him fast….despite his disparaging comments of the past. He’s a Brady sack monster, and he obviously knows our schemes, so…. You definitely get a bump with his acquisition.

for the record according to Adam Schefter’s Twitter.
Jason Taylor’s deal is two years, $13 million. But the real number is one year up to $3.75 million. Taylor is a Jet.

Congrats guys, I was really hoping we signed him.

I can take that. Have said all along, as soon as he starts getting sacks, all that immature talk will be forgotten. Always bottom line it, and the bottom line here is he makes us better.

Hopefully he takes #55 again, so we don’t have to see him in 99 (and, I believe, you have players in both those numbers right now).

Well good....

Taylor can steal the #55. He left #99 in MIami when we let the Redskins borrow him for a year. He can leave 99 in Miami again this time.

Can you all (both Phins and Jets fans) imagine how he will feel when he has to go to the visitors’ locker room in Joe Robbie this year?

Personally, I like him as a player. Love the attitude, the swagger, but most of all, the sacks. Hate that he seemed to always pick on us as a Dulphan, but always respected the player. So now I get to see him do to others what he did to us for so long…

He has got an attitude for sure, and he knows how to get to the QB, in Rex Ryan schemes, that is a good mixture for sure.

Seriously though, good luck JT, and good luck to your team. I hope he doesn’t have some phantom injury as we saw in Washington, and I’m sure he’ll excel.

This is not a bitter response, if you read our posts of recent, I was advocating against re-signing him. I knew that meant him coming here, so I’m prepared for the consequences.

We’ll certainly be ready for him.

I don’t think it will effect the draft at all.

He is here for one year it seems, great time to bring in some fresh blood who won’t have pressure until year 2.

This signing might not change the draft...

But their is something to be said about the rumors of Alan Faneca on the fishing line 2 days before the draft. I have have been calling this for a while and im more convicted then ever. Don’t be suprised when the Jets make a move to select Mike lupati.

Rumors of VG packin on the LBs to move inside, the signing of JT and the possible shipping out of Faneca spells lupati!!!!!

by colinyoung on Apr 20, 2010 4:21 PM EDT up reply actions  

Well rumors persist that Lupati is being eyed up by the Raiders, so Jets might not even have a chance.

I'm a huge fan of Iupati, but no way a G goes in the top ten...

Al Davis drafts stupid, but not stupid like that, I see him doing something like taking JPP, Spiller or even Taylor Mays at 8, or doing the smart thing and take Trent Williams. Still I do doubt Iupati makes it to 29

We have seen it before...

This team makes moves to get what they want. While jumping ahead of Oakland is not possible I wouldn’t rule out this team making moves to get him if he gets past the Raiders. And picking up a project lineman is not the Raiders MO. Of course there is no reason to get too excited untill the team finds a taker for Alan. But what other plan could they have by putting Faneca out there?

To be honest there is so much goin on with this team right now...

Were all just guessing what the Jets are thinking. I think we could all be off base to be honest. My heads spinning, Who the hell knows?

by colinyoung on Apr 20, 2010 4:42 PM EDT up reply actions  

I think it does...

I can’t see them taking an OLB in the first round (even the second is doubtful) now, unless some one like Kindle drops, the position would just be too clogged, and they need players elsewhere. The way it is they can put off OLB for another year, or at the very least drop it way down on the priority list.

It’s also before the Dolphins pulled out of their talks with him. At that point he probably still didn’t think there was a chance he would be a Jet.

The Taylor quote that everyone likes to talk about, but the one that is always quoted wrong

“The problem I have is with the Jets fans. It’s not really a problem; it’s kind of this rivalry that has gone on, and they love to hate me, and I love to hate them, and we’ve had some fun over the years. They’ve had a lot of fun at my expense. I’ve had some fun at their expense at times. It’s the times like this where you beat them and they just keep talking. They just keep going, and they just don’t know when to be quiet. You know, I’ve said a lot of things about Jets fans in the past, and I’m sure at heart they’re good people. Most of them are good people. The Giants fans are a different type of people. Just put it that way. There’s a little more class on the Giants’ side, and some Jets fans take the ‘c-l’ out of class.”

The people too immature to discard past trash talk cannot be convinced

Everyone else should like it. It leaves Miami with an even greater need at LB. The bulk of the money we’re spending on him are for incentives, meaning if he doesn’t perform we don’t pay him that much.

I love the rivalry, but if we’re picky about trash talking division players we haven’t shown it in decades of signing away Pats and Fins players when we can. So, clean slate until he blows it.

Although some people think it may be a lineman, or even another linebacker, hopefully this means we can draft a standout end or safety. We’ve added many pieces this year. In this persons humble opinion, Brodney Pool is not one of them. What a waste of time and money, letting a mediocre safety go for another one that’s less of a diva and more prone to concussions. I’m hoping a safety falls to us, but would be thrilled with a good defensive end as well.

I was think Adalius Thomas would have been a better fit, probably for cheaper too, but I just don’t see how a Jet fan could not like this move.

When Wade Boggs was brought to the Yankees he was known as the guy who battled Donnie baseball for batting titles and a Red Sox player. Most hated him and waited with baited breath to boo the living hell out of him. He won the world series in 96 and the lasting impression of him is him riding a NYC police horse around Yankee Stadium. I too will boo the hell out of JT if he is a bust. If he brings a title to us, I will then hold him in the utmost regard. I am a bitter NY fan and I hold winning above all else……Judge me as you will….LOL

Being a Jet fan is like slamming your hand in a car door after you just broke it the day before...slamming it in a car door.....

Still hating

Mike Lombardi, Jim Mora and Solomon Walcot, all picked the Jets to lose every playoff game. All you heard was we snuck in an didn’t deserve to be there. Now they say we are gonna start slow. They’re saying we lost to much good personalities and we won’t mesh. One of them has us at 8-8 and said they don’t know if we got better. I mean there is hating and then there is insanity! The #1 D added Cromartie, JT, Jenks is back, Poole and a 1rst rnd pick and have Pace for a full season while losing only Lito and K Rhodes who each had sub par years and may have been arguable our worst starters! The offense added Holmes and LT, Leon Washington is back, Edwards has a whole year and Greene and Sanchez will be in their second year, all while only losing TJ. (Frankly I am tired of people acting like TJ didn’t collapse down the stretch and lose his job. He was not gonna start this year and any upset feelings in the locker room at his release has definitely been replaced by the euphoria of all the great signings.) We could have easily been 11-5 or 12-6 last year to say we got worst by 1 game is NUTS!!!

It appears Sexy Rexy will still be able to play the “Nobody believes in us !” card somewhere. It seems we will either be loved or really hated.

I can't blame JT or the FO for letting you guys get him

and I am sure he will upgrade your LB corps. But just remember, we didn’t win a single playoff game with JT’s pass rushing….I’m just sayin…

Well we won two last year without it, and that was with no pass rush, so even if he only adds a little in the play-offs (if we make it), it still makes a lot of sense.
