Chris Jones. He's been punting too much this season, so Jerry wants to encourage Jason to go for it on every fourth down.

What has mayowa done this year to not only keep his roster spot, but keep getting playing time? He's made one play in the running game and what else?

I think if the Zeke situation was not hanging over the Cowboys that releasing a RB would make sense just not sure at this point what will happen with Zeke. court ruling in oct will let us know
I agree
If not for zeke situation one would be gone
Fans want Moore cut but I think the team is higher on him than we are
Probably be Bene but I would cut more because if you do lose Dak for a period of time you can always sign him back. Some think he is there to help Dak. If that's the case just cut him and hire him on the staff and if you want him back on the roster just sign him again. If he really is there for Dak it solves that and free up the roster spot

Not really. He will pass rush inside but he is not a 1 tech.

I think he could play any of the DL position, though LDE would be his best spot. When he comes back I think he will take most of his snaps at 1T, but that's obviously JMO.

His weakness is stopping the run from the inside. They would never have him play 1 tech to stop the run. Never

I disagree. The spot that is available is backup 1T and even last year's version of David Irving would be an improvement over Price. And a lot of the writeups that said Collins had improved from last year said the same thing about Irving so his run defense and overall technique is likely improved from last year.

I'm not so sure. The scheme is designed to allow the D to play the run on the way to the QB. Quick, one-gap penetration that disrupts a running play in the backfield can be as effective at stopping the run as holding ground while occupying blockers so that the LBs can make the stop. Even if you don't think Irving is sufficiently stout at the point of attack to play the latter style of run D, he certainly has the quickness and penetration skills to allow him to excel at the former.

Haye to say this, but someone will probably get injured and go on IR, thus making room for Irving on the roster...

Wilson is a legend now. After all those years of us yelling at him for doing nothing, he's the one that met with Dak 5-6 times during the draft process. He can do no wrong in my book now! Lol

True and it seems many of us were knocking him to no end before Wilson managed to hit the jackpot with Dak. I'm not at all sure that makes Wilson a legend, though. It's tough to discern why we'd need Kellen as Dak's tutor if Wilson is really good in that area.

I can't honestly help but suspect the staff is keeping Moore to be Dak's tutor far more than his questionable skills as a QB. It's not something they'd likely want to admit if that's the case. Just food for thought. Oddly enough, we might never know for sure.

I don't know why and I can't control myself, but every time I see Benwikere's name, I think ewok...they were handy little guys, but somewhat expendable
