I thought we cut Walden?

I think after week 1, this roster will change again…..I don’t see why we are keeping 11 OL and 7 CB’s …..there’s the suprise moves right there…As it stands right now….I’d drop Ball or Marten to add Joey Harrington on as our 3rd QB.

I sure didn’t like that Walden pick to begin with, as he was surely a major long shot to even make the roster……I’m pretty sure he’ll go quietly onto the practice squad…

I like how you put parenthesis around “For Now”.

With Harrington and Simms out there, along with other decent names, this 53 probably won’t be the same 53 in Cleveland.

He is the burner people are looking for, but if you can’t crack the niner lineup, that makes me nervous..

Please don’t sign Harrington. Take Simms. Take Culpepper for goodness sake, but avoid the waste that is Joey Harrington.

He wasn’t good enough to back up a rookie in Atlanta. He isn’t good enough to backup Romo, even at the 3rd QB slot.

But I don’t want to waste a roster spot on a 3rd QB. Sign Simms and cut Brad Johnson.

I really liked him in last year’s draft

The Colts just released Gray AND Lorenzon. WhooHOo! Potential backups everywhere!

Please sign Quinn Gray. Please sign Quinn Gray. Please sign Quinn Gray.

to see if we’re interested in Mcdonald.

But I don’t see them going to Cleveland with only 2 healthy WR’s.

I’ll take Bollinger.

and then we can cut Ball and Marten, thus lessening the chances of other teams claiming them to put on their rosters…..look for those two to be cut after week 1…

He has 14 games of starting experience last year.

Didn’t overreact to the injuries at the receiver position and keep mediocre players like Amendola and Jefferson. Austin and hopefully Stanback will be back relatively soon, so there’s no make a permanent decision to solve a temporary problem.

The idea of “going long” always sounded dumb to me.

One of these linemen is going to make room for that receiver.

I’m glad we were able to keep seven DB’s

I wonder if Dallas will go after simms. I didn’t think so because of the receiver situation

and get Wilson and Lelie in here. Atleast one of them should work out…most likely Wilson.

Amendola is better than Stanback nonsense

from poochie

Jerry Jones said on draft day that the Cowboys would be interested in a young, experienced QB to groom behind Tony Romo. A story in the St. Petersburg Times mentioned that Simms hoped to hear from the Cowboys and Packers after getting cut.

Simmis is 28, same age as Romo.

no question about it if they clear waivers. Jefferson I feel is done. He has been too inconsistant after two seasons on the PS. I’m a little surprised because, I feel they should’ve placed Stanback on the IR and kept either Amendola or Jefferson on the active roster. Jerry must be up to something….

he’s peaked out at 5’11" 180lbs…..and 4.8 speed…..no thanks…..

He said tonight Amendola has plenty of upside. Stick to what you don’t know Boyz…

Amendola’s first play “Fumble”……downhill from there…..

You’ve run everybody else off the thread in the most exciting day of the preseason. The facts are….
1.Stanbach made the team
2.Amendola did not

Those are the facts….If amendola clears waivers,we’ll probably sign him to the practice squad.He may or may not clear waivers,so argueing about it is pointless. We’ll all see how it shakes out in a few days.

it seems to me they chose to keep what they considered the best players overall as a higher priority than keeping players based on perceived need for depth at certain positions. They must have thought Ball is better and CB and Marten at OT than Amendola or Jefferson are at WR and Walden is at OLB. As others have said, I think perhaps Ball and an o-lineman could be traded to fill in the depth at those spots.

Rick Herrin at S-T says:

Signs are pointing to former special teams captain Keith Davis returning to the Dallas Cowboys. Davis is currently in contract talks with the team and he could be signed by the end of the weekend.

If by chance they kept Ball because they like him on ST, perhaps Marten could end up being cut after all to make room for Davis.

keep in mind that, as i understand it, we’re second to last in line for waiver claims, as it goes by regular season record. So even if some decent WR gets released, they would have to clear every other team except the Pats. and there are some other teams out there who need WRs, including the Iggles.

good to know, thanks
