IMO having Costa for 16 games was a scary thought.
Letting a veteran like Cook take over and fill that void not so much.
I don't have any worries on who they find couldn't duplicate what Costa brought to the table. I agree that Arkin is not ready and should not be considered as plan B. He needs to stick to devloping at the guard position.

Mickey shot special edition with Stephen jones this morning and he said he is out for this week.
The injury report will probably be week to week, broaddus said he talked to someone this morning that said ir was a possibility.
Mickey said it could be a disc issue....don't know what the MRI said yet I guess.

One good thing is that they moved the trade deadline 2 weeks later. My hope is that it creates a situtaion like baseball & basketball where teams are pretty much sellers or buyers by then. If you're a bad team, you can start moving veteran players for draft picks and strat rebuilding sooner. If you're a contender, you can pick up that missing piece.
Dream scenario...Browns are out of it and we are in 1st place. We could move a draft pick (a high one deservedly) for Alex Mack.

Yeah, that later trading deadline is going to make things really exciting, just like in baseball.
Also might lead to bad teams turning around faster as they get bigger hauls for the good players they do want to move.

Phil Costa's status for Seattle game in doubt
September, 7, 2012
By Todd Archer | ESPNDallas.com
IRVING, Texas – Phil Costa's MRI conducted Thursday revealed nothing new, according to source, but the Cowboys are not sure he will be able to play Sept. 16 at Seattle.
When Costa first suffered his low back strain in training camp, he missed two-plus weeks of on-field work and three preseason games.
If Costa cannot play, then Ryan Cook would start and the team would likely activate David Arkin for the first time. Arkin played center in Costa’s absence during training camp and in the preseason but was inactive for Wednesday’s win against the New York Giants.
Arkin was inactive for every game as a rookie as well.
“Arkin made great strides in this off-season and throughout training camp and the preseason,” coach Jason Garrett said. “For him to come in and play center after not playing center really throughout this whole career was really impressive. But at the end of the day, we felt like the more veteran player (Cook) was going to help us more in a game like this, and sure enough, he came in and played.”
