Jason Taylor signs with the Jets

Hell has frozen over. Jason Taylor is a New York Jet.

Taylor, who has been extremely vocal about his dislike of Jets fans in the past, now joins his old enemies to add some pass rushing ability.

He had 7 sacks, 3 forced fumbles, and 1 interception last year. Even though he'll be 36 years old, he can still make plays, and you can bet he'll be extra motivated against Miami.

I've pretty much resigned myself to the fact that he'll be a Jet by now, but it will still be strange. But it's just yet another big name added to a team that's trying to steal all the headlines and hopefully win the Super Bowl.

I can't wait for his comments about becoming a Jet and what he wants to say to the fans now. That will be a lot of fun because there are a lot of Jets fans out there who will not like this move at all just on principle. And I can't blame them.

*The NFL draft starts Thursday. I'll have several draft preview posts leading up to Thursday.
