This Vincent fellow looks like a guy who knows a thing or two about stuffing the run!

Was reading some draft profiles on him.  His strength is pass rush over run stuff.   We'll see....

FINAFREAKINGLY!  Did the coaches finally see on tape what we all saw on the field for the last 3 weeks. Damn I watched the all 22 from the Eagles and Peko was a total non-factor and negative on the field. How Taylor wasn't brought up before is puzzling.

I googled around about Taylor a month ago. I found mostly positive scouting reports on him. The Miami media liked him as well. He could be a player if he puts it all together.

Without Peko's story, he probably would have been.

You will see. Only way he doesn’t land on the PS is if he is Claimed. With the way we rotate our DL they are going to have a DT on the PS. 


Probably..,  doesn’t mean definitely it will be him.

 

If they go this way, I would hate to see him back on the team again this season in a big game down the road..

That's good, many of us have been asking for this--glad they finally listened.

 

Now we'll see if we have any credibility ?

Us? Credibility? Now you’re pushing it a bit far don’t you think ?

Just so I'm clear, Taylor is primarily a 1 technique player, right? I've seen posts that he's played 3 most of his career.


 

I believe when they brought up Peko it was because he was the 1 technique DT on the PS to replace Harrison Phillips.

 

Taylor has been more a 3 Technique to replace Jordan Phillips/EO. 
 

I think they saw Jordan play some 1 Technique last week and decided the combination of the 3 guys that can play 3T with some flexibility is better than Peko trying to anchor the line.

From what I've been seeing, when Lotulelei comes off and it's Phillips/Oliver/Peko at DT there isn't really another guy who can effectively play 1tech so I imagine Frazier is going to try to use Taylor in that position. They tried it with Peko and Phillips vs Miami and Eagles (they've actually been sliding Phillips in there since Harry went down, for some reason it wasn't until two weeks ago that teams figured out they were trying to hide a 3tech in the 1 spot and started punishing it) until it was clear neither can really play that spot, and it results in getting gashed in run when they can go 1v1 inside and get linemen on LBs immediately. If Taylor can anchor I imagine he starts getting 40% of defensive snaps immediately. If he can't I think they'll keep looking for someone else who can.

OK. Thanks. It'll be interesting to see how they deploy their DL.

You’re on point. Everything I see of yours is spot on lately.
