We here on the boards, and the media have been asking, "When will Price see some action?"
Right now, I don't think we need to worry about that.....Crayton is doing fine.
So, why doesn't the media ask the more important question?
When will Scott Fujita be ready to play some at ROLB? I would really like to see him there. He has the potential to be a fine OLB in the 3-4 scheme.
I'm anxious to know how he's doing. How's he picking up the system? When will we see him?
JJT, if you read this board, please ask about Fujita.
Thanks.

I bet he starts rotating in this week. He'll probably start before long unless he just can't grasp the 3-4.

Thanks.I agree, much bigger impact IMO.
I'd love it if he were up to speed and got some PT.

I have a feeling we won't be seeing Price or Fujita until the Oakland game, at the soonest. They joined the team after camp, and it's going to be very difficult for them to grasp the playbook and the playing style of the Cowboys.
Price will battle Glenn for the #3 WR spot, when he is active. I can assure you Crayton will be the #2 WR by the Oakland game.
Fujita should be battling Singleton for the ROLB spot, my estimate is he wins. Fujita was the best defensive player on a weak defensive side of the ball for 2 years in Kansas City. Now don't expect the same here, we have too much potentional. But do expect him to be the starter for this year, unless Burnett can beat him out.

I've heard coaches say before that learning OLB in the 3-4 takes a long time. But they sure could use a guy like him ASAP.

I agree......I expect Fijita to be starting in the very near future.
Welcome to the board enjoy.

Definately, Fujita is a playmaker. You can never have to many of those.
Fujita, Price are upgrades -
Get them on the field ASAP!

Price isn't much of an upgrade. So far only Johnson, Glenn, and Crayton have seen noticeable time at WR. You tell me which player Price is an upgrade over. Because I'm not seeing one. Price will have to prove himself, AGAIN.

Thought Fujita played ST last week, but he should be more up to speed on the D this week.
I won't expect much of an impact by him for at least 4 more weeks. He's learning a totally new scheme with unfamiliar players. Gonna take awhile for him to adjust.

Price will have to prove himself, AGAIN.Price is the best deep threat of the bunch, the most consistent deep threat. Glenn is the only other that could even considered a deep threat.

I agree, Price is a dangerous deep threat. Glenn owns that title until he proves himself though.

I'm fine with Price being out....UNLESS his being out is actually hampering our downfield threat.
So far, there's no evidence of that....BUT, it's only been 1 week.

Excellent point and I couldn't agree more! I would love to see Fujita take over for Singleton and provide the much needed size at that LB spot! We need a big, physical presence opposite Ware and hopefully, Fujita can provide that.....

True - but that doesn't necessarily equate to being an upgrade.

I'd loves to see Fajita in there ASAP, we can wait a little on Price. I'd love to see him in there though.

Put Fajita in there because he could be a bigger impact than Al Singleton in the 3-4...
and
Put Price in there because he might cause a bigger impact than Terry Glenn...

Guys, his name is spelled FUJITA...not Fajita, not Fugita. It's the writer in me coming out. I hate it when people misspell people's name. Irks me when folks spell Witten as Whitten. Or when Copper is called Cooper by dumb announcers...
Ugh...

Parcells said in his PC today, that Fujita, Pile and Tucker will get some playing time in the game.
He said Gurode will continue to rotate with Johnson too.
Price and Burnett? Not sure.

My all-time favorite was Frank Gifford calling Dennis Thurman ¨Thurman Munson,¨which I think he did on more than one occasion.
My dad, for many years, used to scream ¨Get Coharris!¨ because of the unusual way Cosell pronounced Franco Harris´name as Frank Coharris.

LOL. that's funny. i bet a lot of us got stories like that. we used to call emmitt "emity" because for some reason an uncle called him that: emity smith. and to make fun of him (my uncle) my brother and I started calling him emity from then on.

IMO, Fujita should play this week (a lot) and start next week.
We don't have time for the ineptness of Singleton any more.
And when Burnett is ready to go, BP needs to start working him in at ILB to take over for the (AWOL) James - did James even make 1 play last week?

I wouldn't call in ineptness. More of a lack of talent. I would suspect Singleton knows his job as well as anyone out there.
Anytime James has a game and isn't directly responsible for a 60+ yard TD run, I am pleased with his performance.
Everyone is predicting Burnett to ILB, but, to my knowledge, he hasn't even practiced there yet. Might be a next year thing once he has a chance to bulk up a bit.

From what I've seen in pre-season and the SD game (and I record and study every play in detail) Singleton reacts very slowly to running plays.
His coverage skills are down right "atrocious" - I don't think he's sorry, but I think we should see what Fujita has.
As for James, I like nothing about him (once again from what I’ve studied)
He consistently gets caught up in traffic, and does not know when a guard is coming out to block him. He's not a good blitzer (like Dat) and we just need an up grade there for real.

bizwah is right. now honestly, who have u seen play more, Fujita or Price? worry about the one you hanent seen.

I just want to slowly see what we have in Fujita - I already know what Price can do, he put up numbers when he had a throwing QB.
I wouldn't even mind using him as a decoy (Price) - but we really do need help at OLB

oh yeah, another thing. how do i change the words in my avatat. pm me and tell. Thanx
BP said Fujita is playing some series on defense this week. The demise of Als HAS STARTED!
Good news - very good news.
