Ehhh i think yall underestimate him. Not saying he'll ever be all pro but he can start on a good defense. I mean, he already did in 2018

I think you’re confusing this with the baseball term Pythagorean expectation. This is what the Dak and Heath homers use to try to explain how we were (are) gonna win a SB with them on the field.

I don't think Gibson is a clear upgrade on Clinton-Dix to Woods so I wouldn't target him.

Lol. So true! One move by the receiver and instant 3-4 yard separation due to bad hips! Straight ahead speed is all he had going for him. I could never get over how some say he was great on ST. I isolated on him a lot on ST. There was absolutely nothing special about Heath on STs!

True story: He's been with my cousin since they were in college at the University of Wyoming. They have three kids together. I was really hoping Dallas would sign him when he left Cleveland. From what I understand, he didn't even get a call from Dallas when he was a FA.

If Tashaun can be had for cheap Ha Ha at SS would work. He has a very good history of making volume tackles that are right up there with Adams and all 3 are the exact same size and weight virtually. I like having more versatile safeties like Woodson was for us.

People are too worried about SS. The distinction doesn't matter in, and McCarthy doesn't care.

“I’m very comfortable with the flexibility we have throughout our secondary players,” McCarthy said. “I’m not as caught up in traditional free safety or strong safety as some may be. What I like about our numbers in the back end is that we have great competition and excellent flexibility. We may have some players that can not only play corner but can also slide over and play some safety.”

I just got a DM on Instagram from my cousin. He's not going to Dallas. I've been sworn to secrecy so I can't say where he is going but a deal is in place, pending a physical.
