Twitter: Report: Antwaun Woods Expected To Re-sign Soon

He is 1000% a JAG. I wouldn't call him a bum.

we went from

Collins/Woods/Covington/Hill

to

McCoy/Poe/Woods/Gallimore/Hill

that’s absolutely an upgrade imo.

that is the biggest one year upgrade I can ever remember.

And Gillmore is before Woods FYI.

Cowboyny · May 2, 2020

What I do know is, when Woods was out of the lineup the team was bad against the run and had a losing record in those games. As a rotational backup, he provides solid depth at the position.

He has good size, strength and hustle. Kind of reminds me of Jason Ferguson. Would have been a much more valuable player 10 years ago. I think we can get 250 to 300 quality snaps from him if we have to. I don't think he will see that much though

I think he was the best 1T we could expect under Rod, who just really did not appreciate that spot.
For the new staff, he is a decent rotational piece to back up Poe.

He's a backup 1T so he'll probably get 10-15 snaps a game, tops.
He's a decent rotation piece for that role.
With that said he should have never been a starter, good example of someone who gets exposed when over-used...

The new staff has just begun the makeover of the defense. Appears they believe Gallimore more as a 3, at most point they will find a long-term solution at NT.

Keep in mind, Poe/Woods are more run defenders, although Poe offers a little pass rush. They will most likely come off the field against the pass.

Yep. I give McCoy and Poe two years.
This year, we found our 3T of the future (I hope) in Gallimore and next year we find our 1T of the future.

Woods is clearly only a 1T, but I've read different things about Gallimore - is he a 1T or 3T?

Trysten Hill is a 3T that was given reps at 1T, but he is clearly the 5th DT at this point. I'm wondering if they have really said where Gallimore plays.

We have two aging veteran bandaids starting inside to go along with no weak side rusher and the supposed leader mailing in last season. Behind them is a guy with a spine issue that could end his career at anytime, a gimp who can't change directions and a vet on his last legs who could never stay healthy in the first place.

I'm not feeling real nasty. Unless you mean it in a different way.

Bout sums it up.

Better than average for sure.

Big ol’ Poe (heaviest player on the team - yeah bigger than the entire offensive line) will help stop the run. McCoy is next to him and Woods and Gallimore are backups. That’s some really nice depth.

Bye bye Trysten Hill, I see no way he makes the team. I’ll root for the kid, but it’s just not going to happen.

The ends are Tank and Gregory, unless Aldon Smith is reinstated and his old self, in which case, look out! Anae and Armstrong are nice depth there as well.

I can’t see Jackson or Jelks making the team, let alone any of the undrafted free agents, but again, let’s see.

I think this team will be much stronger against the run, probably top 10. Whether or not they get pressure probably has to do with whether Aldon Smith and Randy Gregory are reinstated and back to form.

It's been speculated that his best spot is at 3T, but OK, mostly played him at the 1T. And, I am not sure if the Cowboys have said yet.

Woods miss twice as many games to last two years as Collins has his whole career

you may be right I forgot about that neither of them are stellar but I like woods more. More disruptive imo

You have them confused again. Collins was the disruptive one. He had the 4th highest pass rush win rate of any defensive tackle in the NFL. Woods is just a run plugger

even that to me is an improvement, especially the interior tackles. we gave up 6 yards a carry last year. if we could get that closer to 5.0 i think we could make a run at the playoffs.

Wasnt even close to 6 yards a carry. Dont know where you got that figure from

Hopefully, we also find a long-term answer opposite DLaw at DE. Year after year is been a revolving door at the position.

According to the stats in NFL.com we gave up 4.1 yards per carry last year. That's actually pretty solid. No team gave up 6.

substitute "understand" for "appreciate".
