Why Josh Brent-Price is a major X-factor on the D.

A lot of Cowboys fans have been talking about the young NT Josh Brent-Price. I personally would love to see him start and kick Rat to DE, but if RR is cool with him being a situational player, I trust his judgement. From what I've read Brent's role will expand, but not that much. The fact that he is going to be a situational player this could be a great thing for this defense. Think about it like this. He could come in on first and second down to be a run stuffer, and allow Ratliff to be more affective against the run playing the DE spot. Also, Brent could be the NT on third down which would allow Ratliff to kick out to DE and rush the passer. It will be interesting to see how they use Brent, if used right, it could be a great thing for this defense.
