Dallas should re-sign him and play him. He never got a fair shot and he is more stable than Aldon and Randy. He has position flex in a 4-3 or 3-4 defense.

the problem is that he is not a good player never mind his attitude issues whatever they are (miami didnt make him a healthy scratch for the last 4 games because they were trying to tank). his sack numbers are unsustainble and misleading imo. his qb pressures and non existant run defense say way more then raw sack numbers.

But...I heard he was never given a fair shot here and he isn't a "soft taco" and proved himself in Miami! Say it ain't so! lol

Dude is mentally soft and got himself cut again. Big surprise.

He has a quitter attitude. The mind quits before the body. It's a shame, really. He has talent.

Started out pretty well then got DNP's. I think he is a fairly solid player, but with serious attitude problems

Your attitude is part of who you are as a player. Taco was terrible with us and he was terrible with Miami. He had 5 garbage sacks. Watch the tape. Not surprised at all Miami cut him.

I don’t understand how anyone that watched him play would be surprised Miami dumped him.

He'll land somewhere else. I'm thinking they cut him because his attitude and play were not worth the millions they were paying him. So he'll clear waivers and sign with someone else for a little over vet minimal. That's about his worth right now, a little over vet minimal.

He’s not worth a roster spot!

Explain how those 5 sacks weren’t equal? Comparisons are going to be made when you make a player who was holding out the highest paid player in franchise history and they put up the same number of sacks as a player you just cut. Taco had 4 sacks in 5 games. He only played 3 more games after that and put up another sack. Twice he had back to back games with a sack. He had 5 sacks in his last 8 games with Miami.

How are sacks not equal? Well for one, does it come by defeating double teams like DLaw has to do? Were they all explosive sacks or give ups that counted in the stats like Tacos sack vs Dak where Dak should have just thrown the ball at the sideline but instead stepped out with Taco chasing him. Taco never tackled him.

How many pressures did they generate besides just a few flashy plays? Sacks are like batting average. They are an old countable stat but the better stat is getting consistent pressure because that has more of an impact every down than just one play out of 50 a game.

Ideally you want both pressures and sacks, but I’d rather have a guy with a ton of pressure and not as many sacks than a guy with a middle number of sacks but no pressures.

Rumors and speculations surrounding Taco's attitude notwithstanding, two teams have now released a former first round draft choice within the first five years of his career.

I am afraid Taco will be forever labeled as an uncoachable first round bust
