The-Hogs.net - Washington Football Discussion, Redskins to Commanders Era

One thing that he did do was free up Carter a bit and free the blitz up a bit more than in previous years.

Even at LDE they must respect him. I too am curious to see what will happen if we put him at RDE.

If you put him at RDE, he will free up everyone else like you said... and he will have ...

No offense to JT, who will help us win some games, I'm sure, but, I wish we had P. Daniels at LDE against Jacobs last night. It might have made a difference. Hopefully Blache figures out how ot rotate Erasmus, JT and a few others in and out so JT can lineup in several different places and keep the ...

I came on here right after the trade and saw you guys talking about playing JT at LDE. I tried to tell you guys that he is NOT a LDE, and playing him at LDE negates everything he does good.

He doesnt belong on the strong side. He got destroyed on run plays all game. Carter cant be worse than JT is ...

He will do that all day for you.

But he got dominated in run plays on the strong side. Move him back to the weak side...

It was a class move by JTaylor as well:

Rich Eisen, NFL Total Access: This deal should be a win for everyone. Jason Taylor gets a chance for a ring. Miami gets a second-round pick and the Redskins get one of the game's best.

My only question is, if I’m the Dolphins and if you’re going to trade ...

Well... I doubt he will see my post, lol. But I am hoping knows all of what I said already.

"I started in this league as a right end, up until three or four years ago when [Miami coaches] started moving me around," Taylor said. "While playing left end would be different than what I have done the majority of my career, I have done plenty of it, and had success.

He's played left end ...

I'm just going off what Jason said...

I have done plenty of it, and had success.

Has he played there a lot? No. But he has played there before. You used the word... "never"... which appears to be slightly off base. No biggie though, regardless, Jason is an upgrade wherever he plays.

My ...

Secondly, Jason Taylor has never played LDE. Ever .

Thanks for the kind words, FinNasty, however, a few are inaccurate. As far as Jason playing LDE, here is what Jason said about that yesterday in his press conference...

On playing at the left end position:

" I have been on the left side in ...

Oh god... I just watched JT talk on ESPN about being a Redskin and holding up Skins jersey with his name on it. I think I just threw up in my mouth a little bit...

Its going to really hurt seeing him in different colors. Its even crazier that JT and Zach Thomas are going to be division rivals now ...

ur a class act. thanks for the words

Thanks! And no problem....

I would just really really hate to see JT misused at the end of his career. B/c if he is played at LDE... his production will absolutly drop off. And everyone will say, "look, he is old now and not the player he used to be". And ...

Hey guys! Whats up? Fin fan here...

First off, congratz on landing JT! He is one of the best defensive players in the NFL. The guy is a class act both on and off the field, and will bring it every week, regardless of whether you are a Super Bowl contender or *cough* 1-15 *cough*.

You have a ...
