Active Roster
Some things to consider if we keep or if we trade him.
He seems to be one of those freaks of nature that may play until he is 38 to 40.
His stats do not tell the truth about his talent as holding calls do not count as sacks.
I would argue that last year's sag in performance had more to do with the team then JT - he had so little help.
Parcels built his name and legacy on the shoulders of Lawrence Taylor - and while JT lacks LT's junk yard dog attitude (which is a huge deal and a big complaint of mine for years) he is capable of being as prolific at getting to the QB in ANY REGIME, maybe especially this one.
While I do not believe JT will be a Dolphin this season, if he remains on our roster, he could be placed in a nice rotation that extends his career.
I am not one of these fans who puts the sentiment of having a star athlete on the roster over the benefit of the team. That said I want him to stay because I think he is such a phenomenal athlete and in the right situation could really tear up the league - we just may have that right situation.
Any way it goes I thought it was worth putting this out there.
