My Cowboys stock report after tonight

[big dog cowboy]

Stock way up

Jordan Hudson
Sam Howell
Jaishawn Barham / young LB group
Brandon Aubrey

Stock up

Camden Brown
Jonathan Mingo
Several young offensive players

Neutral

Joe Milton — still very much in the QB2 conversation
Phil Mafah
Interior defensive line

Stock down

Offensive tackle depth
Defensive consistency
Penalty/discipline

Biggest unknown

Marist Liufau's injury

Bottom line

I actually come away more positive about the Cowboys than negative. The biggest reason is that the players Dallas needs to evaluate gave them meaningful information.

I didn't feel good about Barham tonight. I had hoped that he'd show that he should be out there on early downs as a run stopper, but he swam a little tonight.

Team playing with much more energy than we seen from past teams in the PS.
This hopefully and should carry over into the season.

Seems they believe they have a very good team. And if that translates into early wins. It build confidence upon that going forward.

It was mentioned that Parker was using the base line defensive play calls (Very vanilla/basic). Over the course of 3 PS games I would give Barham an 8/10.

Add Keegan as stock up....the fact he came in and played some center tonight...didn't look out of place is a big plus in my book. I think he made the cut tonight because of his versatility....didn't know that was part of his game. He looks like a natural center.

Stock down

Offensive tackle depth
Defensive consistency
Penalty/discipline

The best backup OT has been Cornelius, I don't think he played tonight.

 

[Pentagruel]

I thought he was good against the run. He had two blocks in the back that made him look foolish but that’s not going to slide most of the time. The second play of the game he would have had the running back for a loss. I think the instincts were good most of the time.

Good call. I probably should have singled him out. He looked the part of a starter tonight.

Barham was feeling himself during the week. Hopefully, tonight makes him work harder. He wasn’t bad at all but the talent level he was playing against are mostly future Home Depot employees.

qB2 got a bit fuzzier for me, no idea who wins it now.

They were gashing us in the run game when he was in there. Not saying that's all on him, but he wasn't doing much to stop it. Maybe he should have drew at least one flag, but he didn't get it so I can't count that as a success.

Joe Milton looked bad,it looked like he forgot all his touch he worked hard on this training camp.

Dallas and run stopper should never be used in the same sentence.

There was only one Barbarian.

With brain damage.

As.expected.
