i'd cull Crawford. not much in the tank. and i'm confused between hill and hyder. the guy we got from Detroit i'd keep. not the other one.
Hyder is the guy from Detroit but you can't cut Hill lol. he's our 2nd round pick from just this year. that's stupid.

Replace Quinn with Jackson the first two weeks, then when Quinn cons back make a decision between Covington and Jackson.

We can probably sneak Wise onto the PS, but Jelks will get picked up unfortunately
Keep Jackson and Jelks and cut Crawford and Charlton

Excellent post as usual.

Jenks and Wise will be on active NFL rosters this year but possibly not before week 3.
DAL values those quality rookie contract guys so I can definitely see Taco being trade bait.
Crawford has finaly become a value contract after 3-4 years so dont see him at any risk.
He is the guy DLaw points to as his mentor BTW.

1. Tank
2. Quinn
3. Taco
4. Armstrong
5. Crawford
6. Woods
7. Collins
8. Covington
9. Hill
10. Hyder

Hoping to get Jackson, Jelks and Wise to the PS

so who's Rod's game day 8? and who gets traded when Randy returns?

I look at as

3 DTs, Collins, Hill, Woods
3 DEs, Lawrence, Quinn, Charlton
2 DLs, Crawford, Covington

probably, at some point Randy is in and Quinn out (age), if Taco doesn't implode
and Armstrong makes the 53. no thoughts on Hyder, need to see more snaps

I'd go 9 on game day ... but they don't listen to me

note, Covington could prove very effective in rotation - a bigger faster version of Crawford.

I honestly think D3 with Collins and Covington can become a dominant position on this D, that is major
even Rod and JJ can learn

If they cut Crawford, then for game 3 to 16 with Quinn:

Without Crawford, the DEs would be:
DLaw: Starting LDE
Taco: Started the first 7 games last season.
Hyder: Can also play DT in pass rush situations.
Armstrong

DT
M.Collins: Starting 3-tech
Woods: Starting 1-tech
Hill: Rotational 3-tech
Covington: Backup/Rotational 1-tech & 3-tech


DE Snaps:
LDE: DLaw 70%
LDE: Hyder 20%
LDE: Armstong 10%

RDE: Quinn (game 3 to 16): 50%
RDE: Taco 30%
RDE: Armstrong 20%


DT Snaps
Starting 1-tech: Woods 65%
Second 1-tech: Covington 25%
Snaps with second 3-tech replacing 1-tech: Hyder 10%

Starting 3-tech: Collins 65%
Second 3-tech: Hill 35%

I'm always bothered when Crawford is referred to as a "starter". It's simply semantics and wordplay.

He's a "starter" in name only, and anyone being honest knows that.

And no, I am not referring to you personally here so please don't take it that way.

It's just seeing that term associated with the player is aggravating.

Crawford played more snaps than anyone on the DL except Lawrence. He's a starter.

He's not starting quality. It doesn't matter how many snaps he played.

Unless you're OK with your "starter" at RDE getting zero sacks there for the last two years?

Are you?

Good thing he had 5.5 sacks at 3 tech!

Yeah, just make sure you stunt all day to free him up for a free run! Because that's how he got any of them. The same stunts that the Rams keyed on and killed the team with.

Sack vs Tennessee from RE.


Half sack against Atlanta, this was a cleanup when D Law knocked Ryan to the ground.


Half sack against Washington, at the 3 tech, just gets by the LG's outside shoulder.

I don't have the condensed game for the Jaguars, but I have a camrip recorded with a potato here of a sack where he just going through the center at 3 tech.


Sack on a twist game vs NYG. Same potato quality. I only have condensed games Week 11 and earlier.


Sack on Carson Wentz week 10 when he bull rushes and spins off Jason Kelce. Camripped by my same potato friend who has a weird deal for Crawford.



So anyway. out of his 5.5 sacks this season, 4.5 weren't set up by a stunt game and 4.0 came by beating his man. He even got one at RE. I know this won't stop your anti-Crawford crusade, but it's something to consider next time you want to say that Crawford doesn't start, or has 0 sacks from RDE, or only wins on stunt games. Just not true.

No. You just don’t like the FACTS about the situation presented to you.

I’m sorry if the truth hurts. I truly am.
ROFL duude just just you just really use the word facts???
You haven't utterted a single fact yet, some mistruths yes....
Plus you are intellectually dishonest which means you spit nonsense ina way that is essentially a lie.

TCraw was a 3T most of last season because that's where he was needed.
In prior seasons he's been at DE because that's where he was needed.
Whatever position they put him in he plays, starts and plays hard. And gets pressure and sacks.
Crying about sacks at RE last year when he seldom played there is well the kind of nonsense you do.

There was a time a couple years ago where injuries were sapping him of meaningful game time and he was paid in the top handful of DL so was overpaid and underperforming.
Almost every Cowboys fan wanted him cut.
But he's played hurt, produced and seen a lot of other DL get paid way more than him in the past couple seasons.
Is he in this team's plans 3 seasons from now? Likely not.
Is this team looking to cut quality vets this year as they chase a SB? Nope.

I think Collin and Lawrence play the majority of the snaps and none of the others play more than 50%

haven't looked at last years numbers ... just a feeling, about JJ

do you think they'll cut Tyrone?
I dunno, renegotiate prob, but a trade is maybe as likely

How so? If I'm being "intellectually dishonest", let me know how?

TCraw was a 3T most of last season because that's where he was needed.

And? Does that make him good at it?

In prior seasons he's been at DE because that's where he was needed.

So because a player played where he was "needed", that's supposed to make him good at it?
No, it doesn't.

Whatever position they put him in he plays, starts and plays hard.

Which makes him a team guy, nit a great player. Learn the difference.

And gets pressure and sacks.

Not from defensive end he doesn't, the "facts" that you don't like to hear.

Back up this lie.

There was a time a couple years ago where injuries were sapping him of meaningful game time and he was paid in the top handful of DL so was overpaid and underperforming.
Almost every Cowboys fan wanted him cut.
But he's played hurt, produced and seen a lot of other DL get paid way more than him in the past couple seasons.

I've never said he's not a team guy that does his best. Take that up with someone else.

Is he in this team's plans 3 seasons from now? Likely not.

Is he in this team's plans next year? Are you willing to cut a young guy that might actually get pressure and sack some at defensive end to keep Crawford for another year of trying to figure out where to play him? I'm not.

Is this team looking to cut quality vets this year as they chase a SB? Nope.

"Quality vets" is a nice, vague, nebulous, meaningless description.
