Jason Taylor: Trade 'Em All For Tom!
Did you hear Dolphins defensive end Jason Taylor say last week that he'd trade the entire Dolphins roster for Pats quarterback Tom Brady if he was running the draft?
Yeah, I didn't either until I saw it mentioned on a Patriots message board . Then I got to wondering if any of my buddies in Miami found the quote - uttered on Dan Patrick's radio programme - and BAM! Armando Salguero did and mentioned it on his blog last Thursday.
Taylor's assertion goes on to get dissected in both blogs and the relative wisdom of trading 53 players for one is dicussed. The 'net equivalent of monkeys throwing poo at each other ensues on the Dolphins message board.
Remember, folks, any of these people can and will cancel out your vote for president if they make it to the polls.
* Patriots defensive end Jarvis Green gets the tear ducts active with a good deed.
* Nobody does hard-line like Chargers GM A.J. Smith

then whos tom brady throwing or handing off too, what a dumb comment from a great player like taylor, by the way does he mean he himself be traded as well? and im a MICHIGAN fan so any positive feedback on tom brady and im in especially since the owner of the patriots is a known cheater
Yes r, Jason Taylor literally wants to trade all 53 Dolphins players for Tom Brady. Including himself. That's just how unselfish Taylor is. Brady can snap the ball to himself, block for himself, run, throw, and catch. He can also stuff the run and shut down Randy Moss one on one. Special teams? Piece of cake.
Apparently you're just a MICHIGAN fan and not a MICHIGAN grad, because they would know what hyperbole is.
Thanks M. I can't believe people are actually going nuts over this.
Hello? People? Think about it. It's roughly equivalent to "I'd give my left arm for...."
r went to Michigan Community College.
See...see what I'm talking about!?
Should be an asterik next to all this!
I think it's an unfair traid for the Patriots, why give up golden boy for crap.
Are people really this stupid?? Tom is good, but he isn't that good, he is only a pocket QB, he can't run, and is only effective in the pocket, all you have to do is look at his stats, when he is under pressure he is average or below average, he is only as good as his line. If and when he gets time, he is one of the most accurate Passers of all time, but he must have time.
Who cares if Tom Brady isn't the most mobile in the league; no QB has great numbers when under pressure. If you think Brady isn't among the top 5 QBs of all time then you're crazy...
And C'MON people! The Jason Taylor quote is being taken out of context...as one poster said, it's called hyperbole.
