Default Will Canty play?
I like the pick. But I read a while back that he needs(or had) eye surgery and will be out for a few months. He'll have to do a lot to impress in limited time to make the active roster for the opener.

I hope so, but when you consider all the D picks, plus Thornton, coleman, obogu, blade (we did sign him again right?) and the others, we will have enough depth to absorb a small amount of down time, and let Canty get back the right way, even if he does not play all this year, when you add him next year, its like COOL.
Step aside for the Cowboys from Hell!!!!!

He will probably not play much this year. That is OK. He would have been a 2nd round pick at worst and will be ready to rock next year. Even if he is on the IR this year (which I doubt) it is ok. Great pick for our future. This kid can play.

This is a team who is battling several major injuries to
key players including Pro Bowl talents like Lee, Austin, Jenkins, Murray,
Carter and Ratliff. Other key starters missing include Costa, Smith, Church and
Coleman. That is 11 key players - that's half the starting lineup. Yet we still went 8-8.

If the Cowboys went to the effort of trading up for him, it means they've done their homework.

I guy just called into the Ticket who said he knows one of the head optomologists in Dallas and he asked him about detatched retinas, and he said 90% of the time it can be fixed with simple laser surgery.

BDC where did you read that he won't play much this year? He's apparently well on the road to a full recovery from the broken leg that kept him all last year.

I didn't just guessing. I mean, we can only play so many guys at one time.

Gotcha!

I thought you were referring to the injury thing.

It was his achillies which is more serious.

A friend of mine had the procedure and he recovered 100%, it is very rare that it leads to permenant vision problems.

I've read he got into a fight while training and took a bottle to the eye, so even if he recovers from the leg injury his depth perception may not be there.

They could put him on PUP - it'll only keep him out the first six games

I was reading that Canty was hoping to be ready to practice in time for training camp.

In any case, I'm sure BP did his homework on this one via Groh.
