Jets contacted Taylor's Agent Wednesday night to discuss JT
21 replies
Finatic8480New MemberOPThe Jets reportedly conducted a four-way conference call with the player rep for free agent Jason Taylor on Wednesday night.
Jets owner Woody Johnson, GM Mike Tannenbaum, and coach Rex Ryan were all on the call with agent Gary Wichard. "He wants to get to the Super Bowl," a person with knowledge of the situation told the Newark Star-Ledger. "He wants to get a ring." Taylor's decision is expected "within the next week."

Zach Thomas: I played against New England twice a year every year my whole career. I learned to not like that team. I wasn't going to join them.

he is a free agent
with not a lot to offer us now
i saw life without JT once
more than happy to see it again
Why would he want to go to the Jets if he wants to win a superbowl? The Dolphins signed the second best ILB and the best WR in the NFL. Jt...don't make the same mistake Zach Thomas did.
It's Sunday Morning, Where the Phins at?

what was Zach Thomas' mistake? Parcells let him know early on he wasn't in the plans. Zach didn't leave because he wanted to.
I suppose if you want to say "don't make the same mistake (insert name here) made" you should put Welker's name in there. He as much as said he was happy to be in NE where he had a chance to win a Super Bowl......even though NE hasn't won a SB since he's been there.
CalifinNew MemberWhy does it seem like there's only two teams, (us and the Jets) with staffs that have actually been showing up to work this offseason?
Perhaps a memo, citing budget constraints, went out to every other front office, and the rest of the league closed up shop to work from home, and host bi-monthly potluck barbeques to share ideas , and watch ESPN's exclusive coverage of the NY/Miami shootout in Free Agency.
DOLPHAN1Luxury BoxWithin the next week huh....hmmm.....there was something happening next week....let's see...what was it now?
oh yea! the draft.
brandon27SupporterI still think we need to sign JT. I don't see why we cant get him back out there as a pass rush specialist only the same way the Jets are planning to. However,I see JT ending up with the Jets now though. The Jets want an answer before the draft I believe, and the Phins seem to be wanting to wait until after the draft, I can see JT and his agent not wanting to wait until then.

MikeHonchoSupporterWow, they are really on their knees for JT over there. How does he not sign with them?
Jets or not, Superbowl (bwahaha) or not, how do you turn down that kind of stroking?
Headcoach material wouldn’t want to work somewhere they’re not trusted with actual football decisions.

Actually, it's easy. What is required is something called character - not being one, but having some!
We are real sailormen, the destroyermen of the fleet.
We can follow the tracks and ride the backs of the dolphins.
We will be where the action is in every situation.
When things are getting too rough for anyone else,
they're getting just right for us!

And more Benjamin's then what they can offer. I mean for the guy to go to a team that he hates, with fans that he hates. They will need to be able to pony up way more cash then that. He won't give them the hometown discount with how he feels about that team and it's fans. He wants back in Miami, and it looks like he is willing to wait and see.

agreed. this is really all about money and the jets are very constricted in that area right now. Taylor wants more from us, and we're not willing to even match the jets offer, so he's stuck.

I am the sweat not the swagger.

if that's the best option for JT, he would be stupid not to go there.
VaarkForum VeteranEnough with the drama mama! Go, Stay, or Limbo - whatever. Just get it resolved before Drama Queen Bretta's "It's all about ME" annual courtship ritual commences.
AbideN703New MemberIf JT hadn't been a Dolphin all of these years I doubt the Jets would be on his nuts like they are. They probably think they're sending a big F You message to the Dolphins and their fans by signing him away.

oh, dude, totally. There's no other reason. they 'say' they want a 10 sack guy but come on, he ain't got that anymore.
Ronnie BassLuxury BoxAnyone else get the feeling Rex Ryan wants JT not because he thinks he can help them but because he wants to stick it to us more?
MikeHonchoSupporterThe Jets fans hate the signing just as much, if not, more than we do...
Headcoach material wouldn’t want to work somewhere they’re not trusted with actual football decisions.
xphinfanxForum VeteranEver think Rex might know if he buys JT cheap thats probable he won't have to see a dirty Sanchez in two more games a year.
That's why they play the games!:yes:

Dolphins1BeatlesForum VeteranApparently JT is going out of the country on vacation, so he will not be making a decision today like some reports have said. Maybe he's trying to hold off as long as possible, since the Dolphins want to wait until after the draft.
