Stock Report: Kevin Ogletree is down
August, 13, 2010
By Calvin Watkins
ARLINGTON -- Before we head to Oxnard, Calif., and some cool weather, we wrap up the Cowboys' 17-9 loss to the Oakland Raiders.
Stock Up
David Buehler: After two preseason games, the concerns about Buehler should be over. He's gone 6-for-7 this preseason, including 3-for-3 on Thursday night.
Mat McBriar: Another strong performance. Of his seven punts, he put three inside the 20 and had a 42.7 net average. His longest punt was for 68 yards.
DajLeon Farr: After getting signed Tuesday, Farr did have one catch, for 18 yards and didn't appear to make any mental errors. Considering where he came from and how much he played, the Cowboys got a bonus with him.
Junior Siavii. Made one tackle as his helmet popped off and got himself back in the lead for the backup nose tackle spot. Siavii is credited with four tackles, one sack, one quarterback hurry and one tackle for loss.
Bradie James: Sometimes we forget about the starters, and James had a strong first half. He played fewer than 20 snaps, but James had two tackles and one pass breakup.
Stock Down
Kevin Ogletree: Where do we begin? How about two drops among the five passes directed his way. For the night, he finished with one catch for 8 yards. He returned two kicks for 42 yards.
Manuel Johnson: His drop led to a game-clinching interception. He had only three catches for 11 yards and doesn't appear to be getting better.
Offensive line: Wade Phillips said he didn't like the fact his line allowed five first-half sacks and that starting quarterback Tony Romo was sacked three times. In the third quarter, Robert Brewster had a false start and the tackles second- and third-team tackles struggled.
Running game: Yes, there was only one true tight end, Jason Witten, but the running game averaged 3 yards per carry.
Jamar Wall: He was up and down Thursday night. He needs to make more plays on the ball in the games instead of just in practice. It was his chance to draw even or at least get in the conversation as the No. 4 corner with Cletis Gordon, who was out with an injury, but Wall struggled.
