I think Steve Young said it best, to paraphrase him, DT (or NT) is a position in which desire determines success as much as anything. I know that could be said of any position, but the point he was making is that DT/NT's can have a thankless job, getting double-teamed, ending up on the bottom of a pile of 300+ lb. men. It would be easy to give up on many plays at that position, and that's what a lot of them get a bad rep for, e.g. Rogers, Haynesworth to name a couple. Taylor has the same rep to some degree.
