The Four Irishmen and a Scot

That was the name of this OL

Tom Rafferty, John Fitzgerald, Pat Donovan, Jim Cooper.....and....Herb Scott

Paved the way for Tony Dorsett, before the Great Wall paved the way for Emmitt.

Huge mistake........should have played his entire career as a Cowboy

Yep. There's an interesting summary on his time with the Cowboys on Wikipedia. You should check it out.
He was showing great promise before his stomach issue. But then again, we cut him.

+1 for the nickname of the oline. That's one the young bucks may have never heard before.

Haha I only truly forget he exists on Sundays. Can’t stand that contract this FO have him

I have no problem with it lol. It hurt Jerry's pocket more then it hurts the Cowboys. Tried to get him for a bargain lol.

LB Mike Walter.
had him in camp...cut him...he becomes a solid pro and integral member of the Walsh era,Montana led 49ers.

TE Todd Christensen....we had him at RB...Coach Landry asked him to switch to TE...he said no.
We cut him...he signs with Raiders,becoming a multiple x all-pro.....at TE.
