    Well, apparently this is a bridge for the Dolphins front office to the current players. It puts them closer to the team and creates a front office persona that could make the team more inviting to outsiders. It's a good face in front of the press as well. As Jason Taylor is well liked by mostly everyone. Pretty cool IMO. Thoughts? I'd doubt he'd have much say in personnel but you never know.

    I'd say its a very shrewd PR move, and one I like very very much..

    And of course, it should help to put a few butts in the seats I imagine.

  10. Not a big Taylor fan after how he has behaved the past several years. I would prefer if it was someone else but I certainly can understand why they chose him. If this is legit.

    He's probably the most well liked player in and out of Dolphins' Headquarters since #13.

    Honestly IDC what he did for us on the field. He went to the Jets.

    It's like having a best friend your whole life and then he sleeps with your wife. Instant "I hate you"

    I didn't want him too. In the end all he did was take away snaps and a roster spot for a younger more deserving player.

    Koa Misi for one.

    Deserving? Just about anyone you know isn't retiring the next season. We were never a playoff contender, not even going into the season. Bringing in Taylor instead of pretty much ANY younger talent was idiotic. Let him be a disgusting Jet.

    Misi is a waste of a roster spot in the 3-4 defense IMO. He doesn't deserve anything other then the bench over JT. Hate Jason for going to the rival all you want, but to say the guy that had 7 sacks last year, played over more deserving players is a joke. What has Misi done to deserve anything at all?

    If really true ? Great, Jason Taylor is a class act all the way. His heart was here and we set it on fire then pissed on it. I think it meant more to him then any of us will ever know to finish his career as a Dolphin and play his last game at home. I was there, I am a crabby old man and even I had a lump in my throat for the kid.

    One of the best Moves Ross has made so far. As I said, if true.

    Misi ranked #3 in run defense at LB his rookie year and had great QB disruption numbers last year. I forgot only sacks count though.

    Well I met Dan in person because he used to come into my restaurant that I worked at all the time and he was actually a d!ck. And I have friends who met Taylor on different occasions and they said hes a real an a$$hole to fans.

    I won't believe it until its official just b/c it was announced on April 1st. But, IMO it could be a good move.

    It would be a better move to bring back #54.

    Or if we really want to dip into the alumni talent pool...the original #13 would be a very good choice.

    I kind of figured as much. I'd like to see Zach Thomas become somehow involved again. Who knows if he has the interest though. I'm all for major former players contributing to the franchise in the future.
