ason Taylor wanted out of Miami, and Bill Parcells was happy to let the defensive end go. The six-time Pro Bowl defensive end who was also the 2006 NFL Defensive Player of the Year — got into his teams bad books after spending his offseason on the TV show Dancing With The Stars rather than working out with teammates. So when the Washington Redskins lost a starting lineman to a season-ending injury Sunday, a significant swap quickly got done. The Redskins gave the Dolphins a second-round pick in 2009 and a sixth-round choice in 2010 for Taylor, who is leaving the only NFL team he’s ever played on.
