Who's pretending? Who says he has to be there longer than this year if (hopefully when) we get a prototypical RT worth a shit in there? This is a best of a bunch of shitty options deal. It's not a 10 year Pro Bowler type situation here. It's a stop gap, and I think he's the best one.

That remains to be seen. He hasn't played downs at RT that we can assess.
And to assume that he'll play as well on the right side, in the NFL, is silly.
None of us know that he'll be able to make the transition without missing a beat.

Then why are you so against it? He could be significantly better than McIntosh who is pretty much the same profile (decent in pass pro, technician not a mauler) but who has shown that he sucks, is old, is declining and spent a lot of time bitching last year. MciIntosh sucks. Taylor is better at being McIntosh than McIntosh. Stick him in there and give him a shot. It's not like McIntosh is going anywhere.

That'd be ideal, but I wouldn't hold my breath for that to happen.
The guy doesn't have the right head on his shoulders to do that.

Agreed. It sure would be nice though.
