Hennessy out for the season

I still preferred to keep Hoffman. He got a contract that is only 1M more and was considered to be starting material.

Why let a known quantity, who filled in greatly in previous years go, for another teams backup?

Its stupid.
Hoffman filled in adequately, not greatly. Hennessy according to experts is better. They didn’t do it for the half mil savings. The cowboys try and improve the team and they still get pooped on.

Regardless, both backups. But I prefer a known quantity who has played with the rest of the OL. Some had said, he is starting material. Not probowler or high end, but good enough to be starter in the league.

He also could play all 3 interior positions

I honestly don’t believe Hoff to be a long term starter. Love the dog in him though. I wouldn’t have been upset if they had kept him.
 
We did not get rid of Hoffman. He signed elsewhere for more than Dallas wanted to pay. It happens every season, every team.
 
Injuries are rough, they happen.
At least the OL depth is better than it has been in sometime, time for some of the depth to step into a role.

I don’t see how Shotty can be happy with Guyton or Nate.

Did Shotty even get his picks?

CP took over picks 1-3.
 
AI says he cross-trains as center.
Yeah, I went looking and there's at least one report saying he has played center. It looks like he was a decent guard in the UFL, so maybe they feel center might work for him since it is the most protected spot. If he already cross-trains at it and can handle the snapping, he might be a good pickup. The team he was on in the UFL had the top rushing attack in the league, I believe, or at least one of them.

We'd be very fortunate if we only lost a backup to injury this year. I'm not sure it has ever happened that way for us ... or most other teams.
 
Yup.

Likely a disc.

Pain management if it’s arthritis.
Bingo. I'm almost 60 but had disc fusion surgery at c6-7 (neck) 25 years ago. Never been the same since. Was devastating as a younger man with a family. I had to adapt and change jobs because of it. Reinvent myself. Scary. I've never heard anyone say how awesome they feel after this procedure. In fact, they usually feel good for a short time then things go downhill from there. My neck is so bad I had to take my retirement way early. I feel for this player. The young man probably is wondering about his football future a bit. I hate it. Injuries suck.
