Quarterbacks,
Ok we know Tony Romo & Brad Johnson will make the team
Bartel will be a practice squad player, if he makes the cut, just didnt see the big deep throws from him last night. I still think if the Cowboys can get Beck or Simms or McCown they will do so, but this depends on whom the Cowboys can trade below in some scenarios.
Running backs;
Barber, Felix Jones, and Choice have made the team, so has Anderson;
Lattimore had a few problems last night, so look for him on practice squad if he clears waivers or possible trade. Whom do we trade him too? Possibly Houston or Denver.
Wide Receivers;
This is the main problem due to injuries as you know;
T O, Crayton, Austin & Hurd have the team made. You could have possibly seen a stunner trade with Hurd last night being showcased, but as you know he got hurt. Yet, just think about it, why was he being played due to Stanback & Austin being hurt?
This leaves us with Jefferson, Amendola & Todd Lowber, not a whole lot to really be happy about. So, I am thinking some vet, probaby not a big time vet, but a vet is brought in till Austin & Stanback gets back.
Offensive linemen, if another one of our starters goes down, this could get bad. As you all know and aware of, Flozell, Davis, Columbo, Gurode, Kosier and now Doug Free & Berger and Holland if he passes the physical have the team made, along with Proctor possibly, but I just dont like how he gets pushed around. Proctor has been here 4 years now, he should be big and physical now, but still gets pushed around.
So, lets see what we have after that, McQuistan kept showing to me, what Nate Newton talked about, the defensive tackle kept getting inside on him, same play over and over, you would figure McQuistan would have that down now. I once had high hopes for McQuistan, but losing faith in him now.
So, possibly a trade to Miami since Parcells and Sparano likes him. James Marten was getting killed last night, and this guy is huge at 6-7 about 320, but plays like a barbie doll. So, I see the Cowboys with Hudson Houck getting possibly another offensive linemen if one is available. Not another trade mind you, but one he might like off of the waiver wire.
Tight Ends;
Now, this could be a trade possibly,
Witten, Bennett as you know have the team made. This leaves the team with Tony Curtis and Rodney Hannah. With needs at WR, possibly linebacker, and if a QB like Simms is picked up or traded for you, could see one of these players traded. I know Hannah is kinda inexperience, but he has alot more upside, and its iffy I admit to trade Tony Curtis, but sometimes to get a player, like a good wr, you have to make a trade. Most likely Hannah will be tried to be snuck through on practice squad, but from what I have seen last 3 preseason games, no way he gets by. So, what would you do? Go for the player Hannah with more potential or the steady player like Curtis?
Defensive Linemen,
Tank Johnson, RAtliff, Canty, Spears, Bowen and most likely James Hatcher have the team made. Even though Hatcher has disappered like some zoners have mentioned, he still is somewhat steady.
That leaves you with Remi, Dixon and Junior, i havent seen too much from either one of these, but you might, just might get a low round draft pick for one of them.
Linebackers;
Injuries have hurt us here, but as you all know, Ware, Spencer, Burnett, Ellis, Zach, James have the team made. Now on to players possibly trades, George looked awesome as you all know last night, I would not in no way try to sneak him onto the practice squad. I still dont like bobby carpenter, because sometimes he plays like a barbie doll, lets just be frank folks, he just isnt physical, period. Yet, he has the team made right now due to injuries to burnett and spencer. Yet, once these guys get healthy and george starts showing stuff, you might see Carpenter traded to Miami, Just keep that option open till end of trade deadline. Tyson might be trade material too, not sure if he has the team made, but he does have value, possibly even to the Vikings in a trade. I am sure the Cowboys will try to sneak Walden onto the practice squad, he needs developing.
Defensive backs;
Here is another strength, and possibly trades;
Newman, Henry (whom will be moved to free safety on obvious passing downs to cover the tight ends), Adam Jones, Jenkins and Scandrick have the team made. Thats 5 top corners folks, 5. THen you have Hamlin, Roy Williams, with Pat Watkins as top special teams ace. Davis may make the team, it depends on what the team thinks of Coutney Brown, this guy to me, Brown just doesnt seem like he likes to tackle and come up in the hole when safety is suppose too. That leaves Brown, Olgesby, and Ball as possiible trade bait. I like Olgesby the best of all, but you cant have everything.
Kickers and punters
L. P has team made as snapper, so does Folk and McBrair.
So, I think, WR possible trade but not a big name, Cowboys might even wait for waiver wire, so not to spend too much. Offensive line backups, I still have faith in Doug Free, but might need a bigger center. Linebackers with Smith and George have trade value and Bobby Carpenter later if need be, after Burnett and Spencer get back. Olgesby, Ball or Brown might be traded, along with Curtis or Hannah and Lattimore possibly.
