Cowboys Practice Squad Set

They seem to like them.

Was hoping for 2 CBs on the PS so they can bring one up whenever they need. But this squad will probably change like 20 times by the end of the year, except maybe for Miller and the wideouts.

their all jumping for joy over at the ravens sites about getting McCann, Ozzie says he’s the real deal & he’s been watching him for awhile. i could see cutting Gordon bc he’s just not that good & after 5 years of not sticking on a roster it was a good move.
 McCann had the skill set to fill in for Newman or Jenkins by next season w/ not much drop off & could’ve played in the nickel/dime role right away, he could also play FS. the kid had 4.28 speed & was a decent returner. his potential is better then Scandricks will ever be, matter of fact Scandricks just a career nickel backer. i don’t understand how you keep a project like JWill when theirs no need too, those guys are a dime a dozen compared to a potential starting CB/returner that could’ve helped this year. we had to keep 5 ILBs bc the lack of progress JWill displayed but we only have 3 true CBs & let a good one go thinking we could sneak him on the PS.
 Ozzie was laughing at Wade/Jerry for thinking they could pull a move off like that.
 now were stuck w/ a track runner at CB thats never played football, of coarse he was going to the PS bc who would want him.
 if anything they could’ve put Young on the pup list since he’s out 3-4 weeks & then put him on the PS or whatever after things settled down. the Ravens stole one from us but i guess 6 safetys, 5 ILBs, 5 OTs are better then a gem at CB. Akwasi better be ready bc their going to throw that kid in the fire this season

You know the strength of that defense was the rotating DLine.
We had 7 starter quality DL in the 4-3 scheme and they rotated every game from start to finish.

Kept them fresh and hungry for tackles and sacks, competition was intense and it wore down the opposing OLine.

We did not get Neon Deion until after we won a SB, before that we were ok on the corners but had precious little reserve.

the first year they played in Arlington.

Would those guys even be in the league now if they had landed anywhere but with the ‘Boys,the vets that is,would another team have stuck with them?Watch them grammar,guess it’s time for hair-of-the-dog. COWBOYS!!!

He’s got the strength, now he just needs to keep working on the technique.

Only bad part is his injury history, and he’s a bit old to be a PS player, so he probably needs to show he can play backup sooner rather than later.

Glad they found Costa, that was a nice surprise finding a young center.

That’s why he should stick to that one thing.

I think his chances of making the active roster would increase if the coaching staff would just let him stick with one position and focus on perfecting the technique.

I hope its true this year though

If Bennett reached his potential

Miles Austin split left
Dez Bryant split right
Jason Witten on one side of the line
Martellous Bennett on the other
and Felix Jones in the back-field

If all 5 players could reach their potential what could a DC do? They could block everyone and spring Felix for a 70-yard TD has easily as they could carve up the secondary passing it.

Right now no one is losing sleep about Roy Williams. They’re yawning about covering last year’s version of Bennett. And Barber doesn’t strike fear into anyone anymore.

But if the lights come on and we get all the right players on the field. The greatest show on turf would have nothing on us.

enough of those locker room guys. I love having the guys we have now, but adding TRich would be awesome for the locker room.

But he’s going back to the Jets, so it’s all moot.

until i saw McCann get released. i just don’t get how Jerry/whoever falls in love w/ these project players & decides to keep them on the 53 man roster when we have talented guys at positions were short at. if JWill wasn’t getting the job done & we needed to keep Leon Williams then cut JWill & find a new pet next year at ILB but don’t cut the guy thats proved to be better at his position.
 after reading up on McCann & Wall, how on earth did we end up drafting Wall over McCann? nothing in the scouting report gives Wall the edge. it must have come down to special teams players & not talking returners bc McCann runs a 4.28. take Church for example, the guy is your average in the box SS, lacks coverage skills & runs a 4.6 which is not the ideal 3-4 SS but he hits a like a mack truck head on. now i don’t mean to offend Churches supporters bc were on the same team but his skillset isn’t on the defense its on special teams.

over JWilliams bc he’s not going to help this year & McCray is going to be the new ST ace replacing Watkins so thats not possible. also their talking about using McCray in the nickel/dime bc Lee is focusing on the base & it would be to much for him to learn both positions. from what i’m hearing JWill isn’t going to have a role on defense at all or they would’ve cut Leon. btw whats Leons role this season? does Lee backup Brooking & Leon backup James or whats going on w/ that? i read McCray, Hamlin & Brooking could all be canidates for the nickel/dime role but that would send Lee or Leon to Brookings spot?

He’s big enough to play Safety comfortably, so I doubt he’ll have much problem size-wise to play CB.

the Giants and at least one other team being talked about as having interest in Lissemore if he’d gone undrafted. There was a little discussion on it immediately after the draft. Quincyyyyy …err…Lissyyyyy could probably tell you more.LOL

They could’ve done a lot of things differently. But, they didn’t. What they did do was manage to keep all but one draftee on the 53-man. They also managed to keep 4 UDFA’s (Church, Costa, McCray and Gronkowski). Not too shabby for churning the bottom of the roster, picking up some good development talent and freeing up some salary to pay Austin, Sensi and several others that will be FA’s at the end of 2010.
