All-Favorite Cowboys Lineup

coach316 · May 16, 2008

Don't know if this has been done before, but thought it would be fun to see who your all-time favorite players at each position would be to make your Cowboys "fantasy" roster.

This is strictly your FAVORITE player at each position, not who you think was the best Cowboy ever at that position. They don't even have to be starters. And since the majority of Cowboys defensive teams were in the 4-3 alignment, I went with that lineup.

QB - Roger Staubach
RB - Emmitt Smith
FB - Robert Newhouse
WR - Drew Pearson
WR - Butch Johnson
TE - Jason Witten
C - Mark Stepnoski
G - Larry Allen
G - John Niland
T - Erik Williams
T - Mark Tuinei

DE - Harvey Martin
DT - Randy White
DT - Chad Hennings
DE - Ed "Too Tall" Jones
MLB - Lee Roy Jordan
OLB - Chuck Howley
OLB - Demarcus Ware
CB - Everson Walls
CB - Dennis Thurman
SS - Charlie Waters
FS - Darren Woodson

K - Rafael Septien
P - Danny White

Coach - Tom Landry

He played a little FS early on, but most of it was at RCB across from Everson Walls. The year Everson had 11 picks, Thurman was right behind him with 9.

We will quickly find out the ages of the various posters with this thread.

Yes cuz it caught me by surprise, then figured it must be a joke and made me chortle. Maybe even a slight guffaw.

Not a joke.

Do I think he was the best coach?

No.

But he was probably my favorite. I had the chance to spend some time with him.

It wasn't an accident.

dffl11 · May 16, 2008

QB-Quincy Carter
RB-Sherman Williams
FB-Darrien Barnes
TE-David Lafleur
WR-Joey Galloway
WR Antonio Bryant
T-J.Rogers
T-J.Fabini
G-S.Peterman
G-S.Page
C-Lerh

EDIT: opps I forgot coach Dave Campo, by far my favorite coach, and would win 19 games with this offense.........of course it would take 5 season to do so!

:laugh2:

I didn't list one either.

Good pick of Nguyen. That's a tough call for me, between him and Jordan.

I probably also should have put Michael Downs instead of Waters. Lots of close calls.

Oh, and I do like Landry. Gailey just gets disrepected too often. If you look at the season before him (6-10) and the season after him (5-11), his two-year tenure looks like a tropical island in the midst of a dark sea. He is a great guy who, I believe, doesn't get a fair shake.

I fudged and put Jordan at SOLB so that I could have Nguyen too. I just really liked both players so much.

My list had to be Original Cowboys. That was paramount for me.
