I love Mitch as a prospect, but he had a ways to go to get up to speed strength wise. Did he already get there? Hard to believe.

Id like to see Hyatt play. This guy was a 2 time all american. See if he got stronger and improved his footwork. If he's developed some Dallas could have another Ratliff kind of steal.
He was terrible in the preseason.

Good feet/size but no power.

Williams has been better than fans think (this year) but it could be huge if he was the backup at all four OT and OG spots next year.
Connor Williams was playing really well before the injury. Legit starting OG caliber of play.

Wonder if they were afraid a team was going to poach Mitch.

I think he's a guy who we want to see after a year of bulking up. Him being called up is likely more about having Wilson's replacement already on the 53 and being a little beat up on the OL.

I have always wanted to know what’s up with Devin, why did they all of a sudden put Bryant over him.
Bryant is just a specials teams decision.

It was Wilson and Austin over Smith that is the question.

With Knight and Fleming already on the roster as backup tackles, why bring up another OT? They are shorthanded at RB and DT. Unless someone was about to sign him off the practice squad... even then, so what?
I think you answered your own question. Good job. It's like throwing the ball to yourself then scoring a TD.

With Connor Williams going to IR they had an open OL spot from a numbers perspective. Had they they added any OL since both CE and Redmond went to IR?

Knight and Fleming can play OG. Knight played the majority of the preseason at OG:; although I think it's more about retaining Hyatt than adding depth.

Garrett is the worst talent evaluator. It would take a major injury to Cooper to see him back in.
Cooper is injured and Wilson just went to IR. Smith has a good chance to be active.

I'd like to see the Cowboys make a couple more moves like this. Give guys a chance to play these last couple games. See what they have and if they have improved since preseason. Nothing is better for player evaluation than taking live snaps.

Yup...that move has never made sense. Smith scored that TD vs the Commanders...then he's been AWOL ever since.

Witten lining up at WR when we're down in the 4th quarter - things that make you go hmmm.

Smith is still on the 53. More likely to be gameday active than Hyatt, but only if they're in the mood to make sense for a change.

I completely need agree. Smith should not be active and Hyatt will simply be inactive on the 53 the rest of the year. This was to keep another team from signing him, not to play him. But it's a good sign for the kid a shame the team must see traits that they'd like to develop.

Teams wanting to sign Brandon Knight and Micah Hyatt from us might be a positive development from this season.
