You guys keep mentioning that his contract isn't bad, and you are right, but the Cowboys didn't just give him a 5-year extension because they thought he was a solid back-up or a great special teamer. They gave it to him because they felt he was doing a bang-up job as a starter.
I hate all things Redskins but I like Landry. He plays with anger (roid rage?) and is a presence out there. He's really improved on his awful coverage issues from the past few years.
I would take him over Elam and Sensabaugh every day.
IMO the defense needs a traditional NT which will slide Ratliff over to DE and that fixes the no-pressure-from-DE's issue.
Another pass rushing threat at LOLB.
An ILB faster than me and hopefully Bruce Carter solves that.
Two better safeties but the "braintrust" is content with Sensabaugh, so...
You guys know I'm way too involved all things draft but I didn't recognize about 80 percent of these names. We are scraping the bottom of the barrell but I guess it never hurts to look.
Warren is a So Cal kid who was decent at Michigan. He shouldn't have declared early.
If only there were some sort of help, some guys who can stand on the sideline and assist these guys. Maybe even talk to them when the offense is on the field, get them to line up correctly and how to play the different WR's and QB's.
Oh yeah,
Disagree with you here. Had he declared for the Supplemental Draft I would have thought he's the same troubled, immature kid he had been at Florida for 3 years. By going to a new school, staying trouble free, I think he showed maturity. The combine interviews will be really important with him...
Ha! I wasn't try to give any inside info or Hostile-like predictions. My buddy who worked for the Cowboys works for the NHL now so I'm just guessing from now on. I still talk to people at USC but not like before when I lived in So Cal.
Players I think we have a chance at/may like:
12 Alfonzo Dennard DC Nebraska 5096 204 4.45
15 Dre Kirkpatrick* DC Alabama 6024 190 4.50
16 David DeCastro* OG Stanford 6050 307 5.00
18 Jared Crick DT Nebraska 6060 290 5.00
19 Mark Barron SS Alabama 6020 218 4.55
20...
I am actually interested in knowing if the base is still operational. When I was getting out they were closing down a lot of bases. I spent a lot of time down there, enjoyed it quite a bit.
Virginia Beach? Is Fort Story still up and running?
Also, if you see any big-headed mixed kids, about age 19, looking for their father..you do not know me. Do you hear me? You do not know me.
dbair.. Hatcher signed a 3-year deal.
8/1/2011: Signed a three-year, $6 million contract. The deal included a $2.5 million signing bonus.
Also, my thinking with Campbell is that the Bidwell's are notoriously cheap and having recently shelled out big contracts to Fitzgerald and Kolb, they may...
