Why didn't they just keep Collins and draft Linderbaum

Linderbaum is too small and light weighted in a division with nasty DT you face twice a year.

He cant deal with Jordan Davis or Jonathan Allen twice a year.
He can't without a good LG. On a larger scale though I disagree. Linderbaum will be a stud going forward if he stays healthy, and is in the right conditions. Tape doesn't lie. He consistently stopped big boys, and made pancakes with some syrup. That wrestling background makes him 100% NFL ready. The rest is understanding schemes, and natural talent.

We'll see. Every draft pick is a crap shoot. Hopefully ours pans out.

I'm still befuddled by the Collins release. Linderbaum is the Fredrick replacement that we have been looking for.
Coulda had creed Humphrey last year but instead decided to take a corner with huge character risks who is now part of a murder investigation. Just be happy this draft pick isn’t part of a murder mystery and or doesn’t have drop foot

Because they are stupid and when a player hurts their feelings they will cut of their own nose to spite their face.

That's all getting rid of Collins and Cooper was about ....... Both players hurt the front office's feelings so the vengeful and spiteful sacks of crap got rid of them

Linderbaum was small in the butt, with short arms, and less than 300lbs. He was not asked to visit with the staff and was never in consideration at Dallas.

And I guess a raw rookie out of Tulsa can?

I'm not looking at Linderbaum on paper and making a judgment.
Mark Stepnoski was also small and had short arms too.
But did Step " play" small ..?

This current Cowboys OL coach Philibin obviously likes Biadaz, and content with having him as starting center.
And may not seem pressed to upgrade and replace him.
