Why was Taylor behind Peko on the roster?

 

Only thing I can think of was that he was on the team a bit longer and the staff may have felt more comfortable with him for that reason.  But I think those of us who knew Taylor were pretty disappointed that Peko got the call first.

Coach must read TBD message board! 

I really wonder how many players/coaches do... I know I would, just out of curiosity. Plus, there are the people who really care what other think and will defend themselves anonymously or attack rivals anonymously.

If the objective was to get stout against the run than I don't understand why Peko was activated over Taylor. Peko I'm sure is a decent guy but he's barely PS material. 

Not sure if that was the objective...but it is now.

Good move. Taylor is a pretty talented DL. Peko may go back to the PS. Is Taylor eligible to  play this week ? Not exactly sure how that works. 

 

Yes, if signed before 4 pm Saturday

Peko is a 1-technique DT.  Taylor is a 3-technique.  So I think the objective was to see if Peko could get 'er done.  But instead they were swapping him and Phillips I believe, having Phillips play 1 technique.  So if they're doing that anyway and Taylor >> Peko at 3 technique, Welp then

Somewhere @GG is very confused right now

 

Not really.  I thought Taylor would get the call in week 4.  Perhaps he didn’t know the defense enough.   Won’t be long before Taylor starts eating into Star’s snaps.

Unless they use the PS spot to sign Tyrell Dodson


 

They might, but they do not have to decide on Dodson until after this weekend - so my guess is they bring back Peko and then see where they are after this weekend with injuries.

 

I also believe they have a LB on the PS and with Taylor going up - they have no DL.  I would suspect that by next week barring injury - both Dodson and Peko are on the PS and the other LB - Phillips is gone.

OK, I thought Taylor was a 3-tech  But maybe they've been grooming him as a 1 and he "gets it" in practice.

 

Let's hope he "gets it" in games!


 

I agree - everything I read from Miami was he played mostly 3 techniques as a penetration DE, but hopefully they have him ready for the game.

It’s a week late honestly.

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.

...very puzzling, peko was useless last week. Taylor will be an upgrade.

That's actually an interesting question what they do with regard to LB.

 

I know they liked Tyrell Dodson after training camp and I guess (??) he played for a bigger program at A&M.  But Del'Shawn Phillips put up a faster 40 time.  So it may not be a slam-dunk on Dodson > Phillips.  It's going to partly depend on what use Dodson made of his suspension time.
