Hey, I can't knock the fact that you want to bring in a kicker. I also want another kicker. I'm just not sure Dicker is the answer. He's from my alma mater, and as others have pointed out, he was only so-so at Texas. Pretty good for a college kicker, though.

You may be reading into my sarcasm too much. I wasn't attacking your idea. I'm just really low on our kicking game. I think we need a much better kicker than the guys we have now so I'm with you on bringing in more talent, churning the roster.


I hear ya. He probably isn’t the answer. But they really need to throw more stuff at the wall until something sticks. Because the current guys on the roster aren’t it either. Sad to say.

Agree on that.

In the meantime bring Dicker in...he could get super-motivated to do well in a tryout.
A chance to be on the premeir NFL team in the state he performed very well in high school and college football.
You mean like Garibay who couldn’t handle the pressure?

I don’t see how wanting the cowboys to bring in a talented young rookie to give a try is being a sheep.

I mean there are guys on the 85 man roster right now that everyone knows will not be on the final roster anyway. There is literally zero to lose.

if you give Dicker a chance for a couple weeks and then cut him anyway. No loss.

I’m just suggesting simple bottom of the roster churning that every team does during training camp.

Yeah work him out first. I thought that goes without saying. What I’m really suggesting is the cowboys should at least kick the tires on him.
My point still stands.

Yeah I would say having a kicker who shows great consistency is a good thing to have when so many games come down to a FG. Having said that Yes I would bring in Dicker and give him look, Cowboys would have more to gain by doing this than not.

Honestly, I'd probably bring in kickers every week or two until the kicking situation is resolved. The more competition and churning there, the better. We're bound to find someone with all those tries.

It wouldn't hurt to work out Dicker and the OU kicker. We might find something or not. We know what Haji and Maher are.

Brkic is injured

So if you want him, he likely won’t kick for another week or two

You'll get Maher and like it, because--you know--we like our guys.
