Veldheer is trash. D Law murdered him the last time we played Arizona. Surprised he even showed his face in Dallas.

Turns out they may not need Veldheer anyway...money saved. But, I'm all for getting Big Ron in the middle of that OL...they need a bully.

We may not need Cam Erving either.

In fact, i would not be surprise if he is eventually cut/released per injury settlement off IR.
The impression i get is i don't think the team was encouraged by his presence.

And if Tyron and Collins return to health, they won't need Erving's services if they are satisfied with Knight and Steele
as reliable backups. This Eric Smith that we just signed, may eventually factor down the road as well and that could
prevent another red flag vs Erving.

And you really only need one more game from Steele until Collins gets back. Steele wasn't good yesterday, but at least you could see noticeable improvement from the week before. He was a liability in week one, yesterday he was just below average. He could actually be a solid swing tackle next year.

Another one who refuses to play with Prescott.

How much longer does this go on?

Are we certain Collins will be back against the Browns? I know the new IR rule says that he can come back, but I haven't seen any reports on progress.

When a guy is playing mostly for a last financial hurrah, he's not likely to offer the kind of commitment desired. Such a signing is easily dismissed.

I don't think its certain but it seemed like pretty much like a lock from the writeups when they put him on IR.

Well, glad he retired and didn't sign the deal and cash one more payday while being retired mentally.

Ron Leary... Are they going to pull Williams soon?

I was at this game in AZ. It's hard to imagine a DL being more dominant than DLAW was on that night. He legitimately could've had 5 sacks. I think he ended up with 3 1/2. Completely unblockable.
