When I get back home on Monday, I'll post what he had to say about Romo and Bobby Carpenter, the two guys I asked him about.

Good to hear your on the lookout again for Cowboy draft information. thanks for the inside work! Will be looking for your report later today.

Low melanin content, maybe?

What would it take to get McGahee. Not sure if we really need him, but won't complain either. At the right price of course.

ITS MONDAY!!! I cant wait for Dooms inside info!!!

CaptainAmerica · 02-26-2007

I was wondering the other day if Dooms was going to be at the Combine this year. Last year he was on another Cowboy board and said the word he was hearing was that T.O. and Dallas was almost a certainty.

I look forward to reading about what he's heard this year.

Hostile · 02-26-2007

Doomsday81 asked me to post this for him from his notes at the Comine. Said much of this from Wade Phillips was friendly "off the record" shooting the bull.

Isn't worried one bit about the QB position. Said he hasn't known Romo long but he's been in almost every day studying film and working on his game. Wade joked to Romo to get a personal life and Romo said he'll get one as soon as he has a couple of Super Bowl rings to show off. Probably will bring in a cap-friendly veteran backup (no one flashy).
Bobby Carpenter is going to get unleashed. Phillips smiled everytime he mentioned his name. Said he liked him coming out of college when he was scouting him for the Chargers. Didn't say it but got the feeling he thought Carpenter was misused last year. Mentioned more than once his ability to rush off the edge and get to the QB.
He and Parcells are close. Tuna told Wade to call him anytime regarding anything and told him the Cowboys have as much talent as any team in the NFL right now.
Phillips said his 3-4 is nothing like what was being run last year. Got the impression he thought players weren't always utilized to the best of their abilities. Said quarterbacks are going to see a new animal this year and mentioned Roy Williams blitzing a lot more. Also got the impression they are looking hard at bringing in a young stud at safety.

The following players mentioned the Cowboys when asked, "Which teams seem to be showing the most interst in you so far?" Granted this doesn't mean anything but letting you know just as an FYI.

Dan Bazuin, DE/OLB Central Michigan

Aaron Rouse, S Va Tech (More than one personnel person said he could be the steal of this year's draft)

Aundra Allison, WR East Carolina

Tank Tyler, NT NC State (Most physically impressive player I saw at the Combine)

Brian Robison, DE Texas

Jay Moore, DE/OLB Nebraska (Some people really love this guy)

Stewart Bradley OLB Nebraska

That's if it isn't already posted in the Daily Zone. Who knows, he may surprise me.

EDIT: Just saw Hostile's post. He surprised me some...

Thanks Hos and Dooms.

I like what I hear about Carpenter and wonder what Wade has in store for him. If we're really looking at OLBs maybe he's going to be moved inside.

Cowboys22 · 02-26-2007

Its becoming obvious to me that they are looking to go defense early in the draft - definately will be drafting an edge rusher/tweener type. A NT and S/CB appear likely as well. It will probably be later in the draft (3rd rd and on) before we see some offensive help. Free agency will most likely see a veteran QB backup and an OG.

I thought it was becoming apparent that we're going to draft a 'tweener, but not in the first round. Most of the guys we're looking at are 2nd/3rd rounders.

Tank Tyler could be interesting - with a move down a few spots.

He's a complete knucklehead.

Looks the part of a NT though.
