well of the 5 teams interested, I think we can eliminate some teams or atleast figure out their amount of interest.
The Saints are having some trouble with their dynamic duo at defensive end with Will Smith's contract issues and Grant's legal issues. I dont think bringing in another guy that will warrant millions will help their cause. Just use that money to resign Will Smith. Also, Grant is innocent until proven guilty. I highly doubt the Saints go after him.
The Bucs seem like a good destination since they are in florida, so it wouldnt be much of a move. However, the Bucs have millions upon millions tied up in Gaines Adams. They also just signed Marques Douglas to a 4 year deal. Of course, Jason Taylor would improve their pass rush beyond believe, but don't get your hopes up Buc Fans....who haven't we been reported to be interested in? I mean just this off-season alone, you heard the likes of Roy Williams and Chad Johnson, Lance Briggs, Lito Sheppard, and Jared Allen to name a few. Taylor would be a good fit, but I dont think the Bucs will make a serious push, offering like a 4th or 5th round pick.
The Eagles have some good DEs already in Cole, Abariami(maybe), Darren Howard, etc. However, adding Taylor could be a huge addition and with Lito hanging on the block, they just might able to swing a deal for Taylor. The Chargers would also be sick with Taylor, as would Dallas.
it's really hard to tell. The Bucs, Saints, Cowboys, and Eagles have been rumored to be interested in everyone and their mothers this off-season. So expect Chargers to make a splash...
