Memories I think every Cowboy fan will take to their graves.....lol

Don't mention Clayborn’s name to Dak. He’ll get the yips for a year!

Yes and why an inept coach offered no help.

Will never forget it. I yelled at the TV for 3 quarters, “Chip, give the backup T some help!” It never came.
Dumbest coaching ever!!!

As long as this team can get consistent pressure up the middle it's not going to matter who plays the other DE spot.

LLLOOOLLL, I said after sack 3 he would finally get help, all I saw was the sack totals going up.

Vernon is no where near the caliber of Quinn as a pass rusher but he could be a candidate to try to build his value up on a one year deal.

No, not as good as a rusher, but extremely better against the run.

Them’s fightin’ words, Roy!!!

Ok, I could see one or two spots if some major stud falls. If they want to give up a 4th rounder or something, fine.

I hope MM and staff love Kinlaw as much as we do

Yeah it’s hard to tell. I hope they do too. Solidify this defensive line.

Preface this by saying that I don’t think we sign any DE before the draft, if at all. But one DE I’ve had my eye on as a late, cheap upside signing (kinda like the Quinn trade last year) is Olivier Vernon. Vernon is set to make $15.5m this year in the final year of his contract for CLE, but they can cut him with no dead money. CLE just signed DE Adrian Clayborn (below). No doubt a Vernon cut is coming (or I guess he could agree to a restructure). He’s not played a full season the last 3 years. But he’s still only 29. And in those last 3 years - 33 games played - he’s had 93 tackles and 17 sacks. He produces when he plays. If he would take a one year prove it deal for <$8m, he might be a target after the draft. Thoughts?

I'd love for us to have Vernon. And no comp pick loss. Yush please!

I think they are in pretty good shape for this year. But Vernon is the highest paid player on the team, and they have other holes to file (and Garrett and Mayfield coming up to resign).

Is Garrett still suspended for any part of this upcoming season?

You could say if Dallas consistently gets pressure from all 4 DL, then it's not going to matter, as much, who is playing CB

@stasheroo suspended Jason Garrett for the entire season but the Players Association is appealing that. They expect to win.

I expect he'll clap either way.

Clowney 3 sacks in 14 games

Oliver Vernon 3 sacks in 10 games

Everson Griffin 8 sacks in 15 games

all 3 played in a 4-3 scheme as well.

Heck, he might be just as good of a pass rusher if he just completely ignored the run like Quinn did.

Sure, if he can be had at a reasonable price.

Man, Kinlaw along with McCoy and Poe would have the makings for dominant interior line play. Maybe Hill gives something, too.
