Looks like a soft Taco with no flavor

Kid in Philly is a great coverage LB too. Just has to stay healthy.

Kendricks is a good.

When we played 3 down lineman, we only typically used two LBs. the third LB came off the field for another DB.

like it has been mentioned, jaylon's speed is like that of a DB so 3 LB including Jaylon is like 2 LB and a DB with the size of a LB

LOL, I didn't come up with the phrase "soft taco". That was all over Twitter last night.

was that a nickname from michigan?

Not that I'm aware. Maybe.

Here's Taco's best play of the game. Seriously.

He spun because the RB was coming to chip him. Again. He saw that chip several times during the game. It was the right move.

Hicks. Kendricks stinks now. Something happened to that kid after his first couple of years.

Oh, the Texas kid. Yeah, he can play.

Kendricks is salvageable. I wish he was here.

And that's all great and everything but that's not something Marinelli really does.

When he goes three DL, he pretty much goes 8 man drops.

 

[NextGenBoys]

we have enough 3-techs.

Then let him play the 1. He's big enough to handle it.

We know you miss Romo, but don't take it out on Taco.

Romo likes tacos.

and we never blitzed out of the the 3 DL set?
if not, perhaps we did not have the blitzers?

There are some GIFs here that show off his potential for anyone interested:

no salt or sugar either
a little pepper is ok.

That's what I saw too.

His athleticism is fine. For a big dude his burst/agility numbers were solid and his split for the 1st 10 yards of the 40 was very good.

I don't care what anyone thinks, Taco looks like a massive bust to me. Looks like he doesn't even
belong on the field.

Many people questioned this pick to begin with. I didn't know much about him so I reserved judgement. I did think Watt was the smarter pick at the time because I was familiar with him and saw him do damage at Wisconsin. The only game I saw much of Taco in was the Ohio St game to end the year. He did look very good there but from some of my Michigan buddies, that game was the outlier. He did not play like that for most the season.

Right now, he looks undersized and slow. I give Dallas the benefit of the doubt with their 1st round picks over the years. Besides Claiborne, they have been spot on. But man, he doesn't look good at all so far. He looks to much like a raw, undeveloped project for a 1st round pick. Tapper who was a 4th rounder already looks better.

Watt is the safer pick to have someone contribute this year in terms of generating pressure on 3 and long.
