not bad if the D line balls out....http://i335.***BLOCKED***/albums/m472/jdkyle/17352195_1468552689853482_441324946250809985_n_zpslivm5uwf.jpg
I'm fine with where we are at with CB until OScan gets hurt

So we need to add, what, 5 more defenders to that list between VFA, the draft, and CFA? That's still a fair number of decent players we've got to find.

If Anthony Brown can take the next step and we add a decent player in the draft, CB is manageable.

Tapper needs to bring it too.

Dallas' greatest loss was Leary. By far. Hands down.

Linebacker is thin. I'd get a vet like a durant/Bruce Carter type in here. D line is built on hope, prayers, and optimism

If we had a Haley, Ken Norton Jr., and Woodson in their primes- this would be a superbowl defense :laugh:

I would really love to see LB Nazochka (spelling?) make some huge steps. If he can stop getting nicked up and get some experience I think he has the size, althleticism, and even sport-smarts to do something this year or next. At the very lease maybe a special teams stud and solid backup/situational linebacker.......

Need to hit on more of these projects/cheaper costing players.......

I agree that one veteran like Durant wouldn't hurt for another year, as a safeguard on Jaylon Smith (and even Sean Lee - as both of them will likely be constant tenuous health concerns). Hoping Wilson makes the next step too. He has size/strength if he could read game faster and be a bit quicker to play he could cause some havoc.....Might make that stride his season I hope...

I feel confident that the FO made the right decision letting all those JAGs go on defense. I'm not confident that they will do the right thing in the draft. They knew this day was coming for a few years and still they wasted 2nd rounders on Druggies and Nerve damage.

How many times do we have to try that to realize, oppps fail. We did that with Mike Jenkins, Mo Clairborn, Newman. Just , you know wondering. Why again pass up an edge rusher.
We've took a edge rusher with dlaw and Gregory
No matter what position you pick you can miss. I wouldn't consider Newman a miss myself

I think this happened organically because of the cap, not by some epiphany that maybe, just maybe, with the exception of a year or two under Phillips, defense has held the team back. They already squandered Romo's career.

Yeah, you could absolutely be correct, but either way I think most of us agree it's finally the change we needed. Not to say you don't feel that way, I am just generically stating.
