Get the expertise soft cap.

Yes, get hit cap then expertise cap. If you're a tank who wants to cap out threat/ hitting, you'd do it the other way round.

Unholy is not _as_ reliant on Exp as say, Blood. I'd say sit around 20 and you'll be just fine.

Expertise is actually not very useful in my opinion. If your tank is doing what they're supposed to be doing, and turning bosses away from you, there is no need for this stat. Go for something else.

That only prevents parries not dodges.

So what is the soft cap? I've read through a bunch of the stickies numerous time's, but I don't remember seeing a soft cap for expertise.

Soft cap = 6.5% Hard Cap = 15%
Basically, after 6.5% you remove every chance to get dodged. After 15%, you remove every chance to get parried.

It's not always about the tank "doing what they're supposed to be doing". It's about beating the clock. For the bosses that have enrage timers, every bit of DPS helps and a contributing stat to that is Expertise since it lowers the enemy's chance to Dodge attacks (which they CAN do from behind attacks). Since the OP is talking about expertise's priority in DPS and not tanking, I find your comment about tanks "doing what they're supposed to be doing" pretty irrelevant.
