It should be an interesting day of practice. Today, we will get to see whether Doug Free gets all or some of the snaps at right tackle. We will also see how the Cowboys plan to replace Ken Hamlin. Fourth-year player Pat McQuistan also could get some reps when practice resumes Wednesday. Phillips also didn't rule out sliding over right guard Leonard Davis and filling his spot with either journeyman Montrae Holland or fifth-year pro Cory Procter. "Leonard can play whatever you need him to play," Phillips said. A fourth-round pick in 2007 from Northern Illinois, Free has never started an NFL game. "I'm sure Doug Free has been dreaming for an opportunity," (Bradie) James said. "You never want to wish any misfortune on a player, but he's been practicing, working his tail off just to get an opportunity. He wants to show he belongs." The candidates to replace Hamlin are fourth-year player Pat Watkins and third-year pro Alan Ball. Although Hamlin has had an up-and-down season, he's still regarded as the secondary's quarterback.
