Jason Taylor wanted out of Miami, and Bill Parcells seemed only too happy to trade the "Dancing with the Stars" defensive end.

So when the Washington Redskins lost a starting lineman to a season-ending injury yesterday, 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.

Taylor, a six-time Pro Bowl defensive end -- who was the 2006 NFL Defensive Player of the Year -- fell out of favor in Miami after spending his offseason on a TV show rather than working out with teammates.

The deal came about nine hours after starting defensive end Phillip Daniels was carted away from the practice field at Redskins Park with a season-ending left knee injury on Day 1 of training camp.

Taylor was expected to report to the Redskins today.

Ravens

This training camp will be unlike all the others for head coach John Harbaugh -- and for many of the Baltimore players. The late July start, short practices and the option of sleeping at home -- all the features of a Brian Billick training camp -- have vanished. "It's going to be challenging. The goal is to build a strong football team," Harbaugh said. "The goal at training camp is not to come out fresh. You want to come out strong."

Rams

Defensive end Chris Long agreed to a multiyear deal, leaving plenty of time for the second overall pick in the 2008 draft to report to training camp Thursday. The Rams project Long, the son of Hall of Famer Howie Long, will start at right end, beefing up an anemic pass rush.
