Star Should Cowboys show interest in Offensive Guard Vernon Carey?

http://www.procanes.com/files/89a5e8...021-11334.html

Vernon Carey – OG – Dolphins: made a successful move from RT to RG for Miami last season…at 6-4, 335 pounds, gives much needed size to interior line…a middle of the road option financially, Carey won’t break the bank and beyond being a starter at guard, he brings position flexibility since he could move out to tackle if there was an injury to either Tyron Smith or Doug Free…an often overlooked need since untested Jermey Parnell is currently the swing tackle on the roster.

With the injuries this would be a good move.

You'd think they'd show interest in anyone with a pulse.

It looks like this entire season is going to hinge on the interior offensive line. Romo is going to get killed if this isn't markedly improved from last year.

I wouldn't mind Carey to battle for a spot or maybe even a reserve. And Braylon to battle for the third WR spot since there's no clear cut favorite.
Lee/Carter...the new dynamic duo

nevermind on that list of free agents, the main one there is Vernon Carey, and everybody else isn't worth signing but Andre Gurode for the veteran minimum price would be nice.

Is Jeff Faine still available? Tampa made a youth movement & cut him. I have no idea what his situation is now. We need another Center at camp.

-Herschel Walker, when asked if he got tired carrying the ball 30 times per game.

Braylon has signed with the Seahawks... We waited too long if we were going to make a play at him. And apparently he looks real good and is healthy. I would like some vets to be brought in for camp at least to battle for positions. I bet we bring in a few more players within the next 2 weeks or so.

Depending on the price I would be interested.

Were the Cowboys interested? Edwards has lots of talent and has been on lots of teams. There's a reason he doesn't stick with a team and while I don't know the particulars, I'd guess that he either has attitude issues or he's not a Garrett kiind of guy. As for Carey or Faine, why not?

Why not, right? We're linked to every player who has been cut or is a free agent.
