Twitter: Jerry Jones seeks out Taco Charlton in locker room

[bsbellomy]

he won't get his 2nd contract here - especially if he is not in the bid to be the incumbent starter opposite Dlaw, and there's nothing to suggest that
he will be.
Even with his encouraging preseason play, hes' still not a difference maker. If not for his continiuing substance suspension issues, Gregory would
be more of an investment plan than Taco, who has every bit the look of a rotation type than bona fide bookend starter.

Exactly. We are more than capable of drafting another 1st round bust without having to pay extra for it.

He’s been a soft Taco up until this preseason.

What's he done this preseason?

 

[Rockport]

What's he done this preseason?

Did you watch the game last night? He made some plays. Also played well in the first game.

 

[darthseinfeld]

I thought he played well last year for what he was doing. He wasnt going to show up as a rusher because Gregory got pass down snaps. He caught my attention a few times chasing backside plays down

 

[jsb357]

I said it before and I'll say it again.

Taco is going to surprise some people this year.

I though that was Randy Gregory’s job..

 

[buybuydandavis]

I root for Taco to take 100 pct of Crawford’s snaps.

It would be big if he could take Crawford's DT pass rush snaps. That's the hole in the roster if we let Crawford go. We've got plenty of guys to take Crawford's DE snaps.

I’m happy with Collins, Woods, Hill and Covington at DT. Crawford would be nice to keep at less than 4m but at 7m he isn’t worth it. That’s not backup money.

No, he’s a soggy taco busy. Or at least that’s what I heard here

1 more year, you will see a great deal of motivation...

 

[Floatyworm]

He'll only make the team because Quinn and Gregory are out.

Not true....He's played his way out of the doghouse. To the coaching staffs credit....they had it right by playing him on the right side. Where they errored was having play both sides...kind of like how they stunted Byron Jones developement by moving him around too. Fearing they are starting to do that w/ LVE as well. Leave a guy in a spot...and let him develope!!!

 

[PAPPYDOG]

Jerry gonna give him a new contract just like Crawford seems the Blue Label has kicked in....

 

[805BoysInBlue]

I seek tacos before, during and after games usually too.

I've been critical of Taco on this forum but I hope you are right. I would love to see Charlton make me eat my words.

 

[Bullflop]

Game three versus Houston should afford us a realistic idea as to what Taco Charlton's capabilities actually are.

That's when the competition evolves into something significantly more representative of a regular season game!

 

[atlantacowboy]

You folks do know the Rams left 20 of 22 starters in LA and Taco was going up against guys who probably won't be on an NFL roster in 3 weeks, right?

 

[Bob-Lillys-War]

I suppose Jerry went to see how Taco was doing health wise, because he is ready to trade him .

Don't apologize for being critical. He was a 1st round pick whose done nothing in his 2 seasons to merit even being an UDFA........ in spite of good health.

Kiss of death...
Translation: “ pack your bags kid you’re getting traded”
LOL

Well, he did have a bad shoulder a good part of last year. But playing hurt is a part of being in the NFL.

I personally think Dorance Armstrong has more long term upside than Charlton, but if Taco breaks out this d-line will be unstoppable.

Injury or not, he has to be better than what he's shown so far. DLAW also had some injuries his first few years but at least you could see the talent.
