[quote=The Goat;531937]Exactly, save for a year or two he played OLB in a 3-4 scheme.

I mean obviously we've got two natural RDEs in Carter and Taylor but Taylor is the pro-bowler at the position and AC is actually the stouter of the two (not by much but he's a tad shorter and about 10 to 15 lbs heavier during the season). Carter and Evans/Daniels can swap out at LDE, depending on the offense we face and down etc.[/quote]

Thats why I said he can "hanlde" OLB but he will never be dominate unless given the freedom to play RDE. With AH in there helping out, JT would be a Beast

[quote=Pocket$ $traight;531938]Honestly, I think that JT is getting a bad rap because his sack totals were low. All I hear about is that he can't do this or can't do that. In 2006 he was the Defensive player of the year. In 2007 he had a very productive year. People talk about this guy like he is a fraud instead of a warrior. I don't think he gets enough credit for playing through 2 SEVERE injuries. I also think that people are underestimating his pride. You think he wants to go out after last year? I doubt it. Jason Taylor is a monster and was a big contributor to the 4th best defense in the NFL last year. Plus, in my opinion the best game of the year by the defense was the second Philly game and he was all over the place.[/quote]

All good points $$, and I'm not in anyway suggesting he's a fraud or anything like that but i do think it's legit to wonder where his pro-bowl talent is put to the best use... i tend to think Taylor has the best opportunity of all our guys to benefit from the presence of big Al and that means he's got to be on the LOS but i don't want to see him shedding huge blockers all day at LDE before he's got a shot at the QB.

I agree with you. Most of the negatives I have heard have been from talk show hosts who along with Jason LaCanfora have been consistently wrong with their speculation recently.

[quote=Schneed10;531577]MARVELOUS value!

$8.2 million in guaranteed money, this amounts to a $2.0 million cap hit. I have us with $4.4 million in space at this point. Still enough to sign another impact lineman!

Woot! Welcome back 66![/quote] I like to see that RT spot filled!
