We have a couple of guys playing some good football in the middle. Not sure I would upset the Apple cart unless he plays situationally (yes, I remember what an absolute monster he can be).

Why not promote one of the dbs on the PS? We saw how badly Lenior flopped last time. Give someone else on the practice squad a go.

I have no expectation from Irving but evidently the Cowboys do as he remains on the active roster. At this point I would just as soon they move on and bring in someone from the practice squad

I hope he can play in the future. But I know it's not going to happen

It’s funny when the homers can’t accept bad news. Like when they couldn’t accept that Escobar was a wasted draft pick. Or they couldn’t accept that Rolando McClain chose Purple Drank over football. Or when Kyle Orton and Jay Ratliff screwed the team over and still kept the money. Or this. They can’t accept that Irving doesn’t care about football.

Time to let him go this offseason.
There's no point anymore with this guy. I was hoping he'd be back by late season, we could get him on a real cheap contract and go from there for 2019. But at this point, he's a lost cause.
The ironic part of all of this? Tyrone Crawford has caught more crap from fans over the years than Irving and Crawford has been a very solid and productive player.

That’s the issue
What is the real deal with him
I have no clue but the team does
We will see this off season what it was and what the team thinks about it
If it’s substance issues it wouldn’t surprise me if they don’t give up on him
If it’s attitude type issues he’s likely done here

That may have been true at one point but no longer. I am pulling for the guy to get it together and return because honestly, why wouldn't I? Top 3 though? Over which 3 of Jaylon, LVE, Lawrence, B. Jones, Gregory?

Actually I never think about him being on the team until I see his name in some thread on here.
I don't mind, it, as then I know he is still around in some capacity.
But I don't want him released, only because there is a chance we can get a comp pick for him.
Let him test FA, and even if we get a 7th round, it is better than nothing.
Other than that I really don't care if he stays or goes, but if he stays, it better be a cheap team friendly deal.
As the way the defense has been playing, does anyone still think that he would be that big of a difference at this point.

He hasn't even shown up for meetings. And nobody can use "injury" as their excuse for that. If it's "family issues"? He's had a year to sort those out. Hasn't happened. If it's "injury"? No excuse to not attended meetings or games. If it's "addiction"? Go to rehab and make the effort to break the cycle. But the fact is that none of these things are happening, because the guy is a screwup who doesn't care enough to do any of it.

I think he's more a non-plan for the future. I don't know if it's an ankle issue but it's definitely a head issue. Words travel through it from ear to ear without stopping to be digested. It's like his brain fails to digest the implications and it poops out the words undigested

I think the comp pick theory is as good as any for why the team hasn't released him already. They'll let this play out and see if anyone else is willing to take on this headache. If someone does, the Cowboys would at least get something for their troubles.
