Love this signing! I wanted to draft him but still a nice addition at 30yo.. Should help the ends and LBs tremendously here.

Strong like bull, Quick like lightning, Fat like Toyota Minivan.

Hardline · Jun 9, 2020

I remember wanting Poe in the first round in that draft and the Panthers selecting him
Then I remember wanting Kwann Short in the 2nd round and the Panthers selecting him.

He was drafted by the Chiefs

Going to be nice watching the Cowboys defense and the DT's making plays consistently.

Best DT core the Cowboys have had in years. YEARS.

Coveted him in that draft, but our Dline coach loved quick twitch guys that weighed 300 and under. I never got that. It was fine when Olineman weighed 310. Now they weigh 330.

KC drafted him

We got a perfectly serviceable interior D-line for 8m and a 3rd round pick. Poe, McCoy and Gallimore are exactly what we should be doing if we don’t want to spend big money or draft capital on the position.

Don't have high hopes for the dts. Hopefully they suprise me

They’ve been pretty consistent throughout their careers. You can be pretty sure McCoy will get 5+ sacks and play the run well. Poe will get 1-tech sack numbers (2-3) and command double teams.

I’m not looking for surprises, I just want them to do a job. That’s something that hasn’t consistently happened for a long time.

You're thinking of Star Lotulelei. He and Short made for a nice DT draft by the Panthers that year.

Yes Beev. That's a good story.
Clarify: is he a run stuffer or pass rusher?
Hollah
