First, Sherm is an old dawg, not a big dawg any longer. He may be a good coach but we already have that, so why not just let the coach do his job and avoid the distraction that Sherm IS.
I stated Sherman there's a "specific role" he could play on the field, in addition, to the intangibles off.

If you can't see the value in a former All-Pro (Super Bowl Champ) mentoring a 2nd year CB who played on the worst defense in history, I don't know what to tell you. If you don't like Sherman just say that, but to act like he has no value is cap.

Last, I'm not putting any stock in Whitt after that dumpster fire he lead in ATL, so you trust the architect of a bottom feeding secondary to guide Diggs into greatness, alright.

I don't think Sherman has much in the tank, but he'd be decent from a leadership perspective.

Who is he not better than in our CB room.?Hes not a smart player?....he doesnt know Quinns system?.... he couldnt teach our young guys anything?.... please tell me where I'm wrong so I can be as wise as you are!

For starters he he is old and slow and not significantly better than what we have. If he was, then he would have been brought in. Two teams passed on him already because he is old and slow, plus he is cancer in the locker room. If he was good enough then two teams wouldn't have let him go. Last, why would you want someone on the team that punched a teammate over a disagreement. I hope you learned something here. If other teams don't want an aging, past his prime player who has issues, then why would we?

I'm sure you wont like this answer but it is what it is.

If Quinn uses the Cover-1 scheme, Sherman would be a better fit at corner than at safety. The safety in that scheme has to be really able to cover some ground. The corners get to be physical and less reliant on pure speed.

At this stage of his declining career at CB, Cover 2 would be the best coverage scheme for Sherman as it allows him to play with a cushion and protect him more in a zone,..

Just like Diggs, if he is placed in a press jam where he has to be Lester Hayes at the line and go 50-60 yd with a downfield WR he is gonna be at a huge disadvantage - BTW i was quite surprised we retained Al Harris on coaching staff as asst DB coach.


Cover 1 scheme

Y'all think Sherman is a HOFer? I know it don't really have anything to do with thread, but what's y'all's opinion

if you have guys like Ty Law in the hall of fame , why wouldn't Sherman deserve less mention ?
i think he's a definite HOFer
At his prime Sherman was a shut down like CB and he made INTs as well. ..

But the HOF is tricky and has their own politics some time.
Raiders Lester Hayes was Defensive Player of the Year and well known as one of the great shut down CBs in NFL
history,,,but hes not even in the Hall of Fame ? :confused:

Quick side note: Read a couple of tweets that we could see an avalanche of vets released shortly after the Super Bowl.

Cowboys 2021 free agency: Dallas hasn't ruled out interest in Richard Sherman, but lots to consider
They'd like to open a dialogue with him, if he's willing to talk

It's no secret the Dallas Cowboys have been attempting to reconstruct the framework of the once infamous Legion of Boom, but having failed to do so to this point. The addition of Kris Richard as passing game coordinator in 2018 was a lynchpin in their more recent attempts, but Richard was let go in 2020 when the head coach and defensive regime changed. One year later, there's been another seismic shift -- one that sees Dan Quinn taking over after a historically abysmal showing by now-fired defensive coordinator Mike Nolan -- which serves as a reset button to build in Dallas what the Seattle Seahawks once boasted, and this is where Richard Sherman might come into play.

Sherman will be 33 in March.
Jerry needs to quit hoping for big names way past their Prime.

You said that but you are wrong. Sherm is a has-been on the field.

if he's cheap enough, yes.

He's lost a step, but I think he would be an upgrade at FS.

At this point I'll take a stab at ET. RS is beat up and wash up. I'll rather bring back and sign Lewis or Chedo to a cheap deal.

why not see if he can play safety? Its worth finding out. Sherman and Wilson would be a nice tandem at safety.

I don't think I could watch this guy weekly. It wouldn't take long before he would be running his mouth about something.

Bring in Sherman and ET and party like it's 2013. Maybe we can coax Michael Bennett out of retirement as well?

Just because we need to respect our elders doesn't mean we need to sign Methuselah.
