Yeah I read he got cut off some kind of loophole dealing with if you're a 4 year veteran......article didn't go much into it but seems like March and Goodwin will both be back and playing next Sunday.

At least he won't have anymore late hit out of bounds penalties anymore. He isn't some great special teams player that Dallas will miss. They will replace him and it won't be an issue

I'd hate to be able to not equal that performance of last year.
How will we ever make this up?
He probably will come back, because no one else wants him.
Garbage JAG, maybe worse. Let him go.

Robinson played ST's in college and he will probably be an upgrade. Drafting Robinson, and signing Worley (who likely meant Robinson wont see a ton of defensive snaps as a rookie) probably spelled the end of Goodwin
I thought Canady had a better shot of making the roster than Goodwin if he didnt opt out

I don't get the entire Goodwin is such a special teams great player. Plus you get nothing from the DB spot he occupies. At least with Robinson he block kicks in college and had upside as a DB.

Thats why I like the Canady signing. He at least gives you a playable DB from that ST roster spot. Luckily the draft made it so neither of them was needed

Yeah but it wasn't Goodwin's fault and if Bones likes Goodwin...give him what he wants this special teams is going to start off as a work in progress.

Don’t get too much caught up in a few bubble players being cut. They take the chance no team will pick them up.
After they put a few on IR, they could be very well brought back if not signed elsewhere.
And if they are, they can be replaced fairly easy.

I’ll be here laughing when Goodwin is back on the roster.

He and March will be back. Bernard is the one we have to wait patiently for to sneak through waivers (I’m betting he won’t).

What's it going to be then, eh?

Most likely if Lewis gets sent to IR.

They must be eyeing a good 3 or 4 outside free agents (Carr and who else?) to be making these moves then.
They're trying to add guys to the 53 today, knowing that 3 guys (Collins, Lee, and Lewis) will be going to the IR tomorrow, and are risking losing Goodwin and March (not really a risk to me at all) to do it.

I'm glad. I'm not a big fan of keeping him just because of special teams play ... although I admit that I loved Bill Bates and Kenny Gant.
It's too bad Canady opted out, because he's pretty much Goodwin on special teams with the ability to also actually contribute at corner.
However, I think we've got some pretty good candidates in the secondary to step up on special teams while also not being a liability at their position.
