Which is fine. He essentially IS Cam Robinson. Very very similar player. He costs too much to have put him at RT, but that's a coaching decision. From a talent standpoint, Taylor is just fine.

Is that so? Presuambly we are talking about the same Taylor who leads the league in penalties for an OT for the last year and a half?

How many teams would put up with that?

Most of them.

You know who's leading the league in penalties from an OT this year?

Laremy Tunsil. Behind him, Bolles, Mekari, Dawkins, Brown and Ronnie Stanley.

Yeah - those guys are all just piles of shit, aren't they?

But you know what you know so just keep telling yourself whatever you need to. Keep on talking out your ass if you'd like.

Bad examples, because Tunsil, Bolles, Stanley and Dawkins are all Pro Bowlers, of course they will be excused. Not sure how easily or for what reason Taylor can get away with it, considering how average/below average his overall play is.

You know what else those 4 guys have in common?

They have as many Super Bowl rings as I do. Which is one less than the one Taylor earned last season when he was among the best OTs in football over the last half of the season and into the playoffs last year.

But again, keep telling yourself whatever you must.

I've not seriously heard anyone claim that, but you can hold than opinion if you want to.

The reality is this is a guy who was brought in as a LT, failed, and had to be shifted to RT. He maybe gets a pass at RT with a proper LT in place, but the fact he couldnt play LT when he was supposed makes him part of the overall problem.

He never took as much as a single training camp snap at LT. he never failed at LT - he was never tried.

What the hell are you even talking about?
