Von Miller is expected to sign with the Dallas Cowboys

[Coogiguy03]

What's next, are they going to dig up Vince Lombardi's corpse and have him mentor Schotty?

Not to pick on the guy because he's still much younger than me, but most pass rushers are done by age 32. Miller is 37.

And LeBron is 79 but is still playing, man let's be happy just for something ya know! We know he's old, but this old dog can teach these young guys some tricks! It's a win situation!

 

[Coogiguy03]

IT WAS CLEAR that the Cowboys and von possibly had a deal in talks with each other over the week(s), we just didn't know it!

 

[Coogiguy03]

Dallas fans thinking the "missing piece" is a 15 year player who averaged half of a sack per game last year. You can't make this stuff up. Another perfect example of why the Cowboys fan base will always be known as the most ignorant in football.

Stop complaining and just let it take it's course! He's here to help you young guys, get us pressure on the QB, what were you expecting mad Max?? Give up draft capital when we're limited anyways!! Sheesh

 

[Coogiguy03]

They will keep 8 total LB's, probably 9 until they figure out a rotation.
Probably keep 5 DL, and have a few LB's can play a few snaps at DL.

I think with Miller, they will keep 9. Which pushes a player, like a 4th TE or a 6th WR off the 53. Most likely Trigg may end up on the PS now.

JAZZ come on man I know you get mad at me a lot for whining well and others, but I'm spreading your vibes on here in this post, post #317, and the other in the new thread on this topic. You have to show some love, I don't know what else you have to do

I don’t hate the move. He will be a nice rotational player and he can mentor the youngins

Very well said and I 100% agree. I think if push came to shove, he can handle ever snap however I don't want him to do that. I (personally) think rotating him in here and there and be a mentor for his fellow players would be perfect. I think his presence alone in the locker room is going to speak volumes.... I'm actually excited about this move.

What does my post have to do with anyone whining?
You really need to stop that narrative.

 

[Cowboyny]

Right. He's a third-down rusher, rotating in when we move Gary inside. Probably opposite of Houston. Lawrence has to prove he deserves snaps over either.

Gives Lawrence more development time rather then to throw him into the fire in a major role. They can bring him along slowly in hopes he earns more playing time as the season progresses

You totally misread my entire post, it had ABSOLUTELY nothing to do with you whining, but with the WHINING that is going on from posters on here about this signing. I was taking a page from your book and mentioning to others on here that they need to see things through instead of immediately complaining. I guess that went over your head, thanks for nothing!

Let’s not talk about LeBron.
I’m a Rockets fan and I’m still devastated what he did to us in the first round this year. I just knew we had that series and had the nerve to buy tickets for a playoff game. I’m still sick.

Good morning to you, Mr. Negative (lol)

He had 9 sacks last season, the most of his career since 2021, when he was 32 (lol)

Be happy we finally have a player who replaces some sacks and pressure we lost when Parsons was traded.

WE NEED LAWRENCE TAYLOR!!!!!!

 

[John813]

Cool.

Should still be decent on 3rd down. Maybe he can be the Ware like mentor to EZE and Law, similar how Ware helped him out over a decade ago.

If he sucks, no big deal, not like they gave him stupid money and term

[Risen Star]

Because it wasn't "official" when the team tweeted it out last night.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

That is not the flex you think it is for an eighteen game season. The marathon continues, but the math stops for some.

He played 34 percent of the snaps on defense…the math definitely stops for some lol. You embarrassed yourself trying to be a smart ***. Congrats math whiz.

 

[Jarv]

How much, did we get the hometown discount?

 

[Rayman70]

Ok, many think maybe they saw something they didn't love about Malachi but I think it's more about Jayshaun Barhams hammy. They have big plans for him. But felt they needed an ace in the hole, insurance, a mentor by example. This move makes a lot of sense if you look at it this way. On the cheap I'll bet. This wasn't us adding that final SB piece, this was us saying, he checks all the boxes, and it made sense. Good part is, we will get him in there during camp. Unlike Clowney.

 

[Rayman70]

Also, if the young guys do what we think, then yes, von becomes house money. He's all gravy at that point. Then suddenly, if that offense does what we think, he becomes a luxury, a playoff final piece. I won't say sb because honestly, that's dumb. But can he give us some extra juice in spots to get us over the playoff hump? Maybe. Let's just keep him healthy. Needs to be on a pitch count. I'm warming up to the signing.

 

[JoeyBoy718]

It’s a good low-risk move. If they’re betting on EZE and Malachi to be their edge rushers for the future, then Miller serves has a short-term bridge and mentor. He’s also not really an every-down player anymore, so it won’t take away any snaps.

Trading for Crosby would be more high-risk. Not only would it cost future draft picks to acquire him, but it would take away snaps from the young guys and it would be unlikely we’d retain the young guys for a second contract.

That doesn’t mean that trading for Crosby would be a bad move. We did the same when we acquired Q Williams. The difference with Q was we really had no young DTs we were developing.

 

[DCreppinBoysfan]

Is this going to be our Charles Haley signing for the next dynasty?


I’m blindly going to drink the koolaid. It goes against my better judgement but I need something because I haven’t believed in the cowboys since 2018
