WIth this DL, he must have really been pretty bad.

Could mean that Hayden makes the final roster (ouch!).

But Bass probably wasn't beating out Coleman or Bishop.

Nor was he going to beat out McClain or Melton.

That's 4 guys right there and then if Brent comes back... There's another DT.

I just watched all of justin Green's snaps going back to high school. I have no idea what the Patriots were thinking. green is a stud. Might be worth another first round pick for us.

You must put together some amazing spreadsheets.

I'm resigned to the fact that we must have at least one make-a-wish player on the roster.

Hayden might as well go show Brooke Hogan how he got his nickname.

It is just a little sad that things were so set in stone.

They looked at Bass and said, no way.

You are no better than the garbage that played in San Diego.

Challenge THE Terrell McClain?

You think you are better than the Golden Cock? The Spinning Cock?

Wow, that is just a sad ending to the player who Hatcher said would be the reason he was not on the roster next year.

Oh course he wasn't.

I don't think he was.

The team is big on Bishop and Coleman.

Bass wasn't going to beat out McClain and Melton.

Then you have Brent (probably) coming back.

That's 5 DT's right there.

And then you have a seemingly army of DE's that can move inside on passing downs.

Nick Eatman says Bass wasn't going to make the final roster

You're right, Bass was history. DT's will likely be Melton, McClain, Coleman, and Hayden. Why not get something for a guy that wasn't going to make the team? I actually like this trade. But what if Bass and his bad hammy flunks his Patriots physical? Do we give Green back to them?

This sport is full of tears.

But, to play devil's advocate, look who traded for him. He didn't exactly get shipped to the Jaguars.

Replace Hayden with Bishop and you're probably there.

You're right- for some reason Bishop slipped my mind. And the Cowboys will have to keep injured Lawrence and Spencer at end for a while, too, though Orlando Scandrick helped open up a four week window for one of them.;)

Yes, I think it voids the trade.
