    Lots of people bashing this move but facts... Orlando Brown and Wylie gave up the most pressures out of all the tackles. Yes they shut down the eagle. But Taylor was 3rd in giving up pressures. This is a clear upgrade for sure at Rt and probably Lt for a much lower price than what Brown was asking.

    This is a good signing.
