Yes, he was to resume practice right after the last game. Had we Mae the playoffs he would have practiced and played.

I definitely want the OL/DL addressed early an often. However, if they have Vacarro as their #1 safety and more highly rated than the linemen that are left, then they should draft him since we could use a safety.

"I just always feel that he's going to find a way to win the game…He has evolved into a great, great leader of the team...He is the total package." Roger Staubach about Tony Romo

But what do Roger and Troy know about great quarterbacking, talent, leadership, and winning anyway?

What are the team's issues year after year? We lack depth at OL and S, because year after year we virtually ignore these in the top rounds of the draft.

If the best player available at 18 is a FS we better well take him.

LThis team needs an all-around S with range to cover sideline to sideline.

How many more 3rd and long's can we endure with the opposing converting first downs because our FS can't cover?

How many more bottom-in-INTs statistics can we endure because the FS can't jump routes or cover deep?

We NEED a top FS, bottom line, and if we're smart we're looking for that guy in rounds 1 or 2, not free agency. That's because those guys don't hit free agency, and the lesser SS that do cost too much.

Well i was hoping they would get Kenny Vaccaro, since im a Texas fan. But that was a while back & his draft stock has risen so high then. I like matt Johnson & iv seen his highlights, but has he even played a down yet? People are putting hope in this dude & he hasn't even played

Exactly everything you just said! We need a top flight safety!
Tony Romo Will win a SB!

So tired of repeating it time after time, glad to see you lay it out here.

The only safety that they should even consider in round one is vaccarro, and he is likely gone by #18...and, he isn't worth trading up to get, IMO (based on what else would have to be given)...

So realistically, our best bet at getting anyone new to play & start safety next year is through free agency? & that will be Bird, Laron landry? Im just hoping we get somebody new next year. Sick of seeing our safeties being out of position & getting beat deep.. Id also definitely keep church over sens
