What is the severity of Brown's injury? Do we know anything for sure?

Crap. Man that sucks. I was hoping it was a high ankle sprain. That really sucks.

Yeah, I agree. No fan of Joseph, and Bland is a slot man, nickel guy. He won't be the replacement for Brown, unfortunately.

I would move Mukuamu back to corner for the rest of the season and just roll with Diggs, Joseph, Bland and Mukuamu. He can play. I have no time for Nahshon Wright.

You probably have the right idea. He's probably at least as good as any free agent available and he already knows the system.

 

[gimmesix]

Most likely we'll bring up the CB we added to the practice squad a few weeks back, Kendall Sheffield. He has some starting experience for Quinn.

 

[Pass2Run]

Stop it

No doubt.

I mean everyone talks about how much Anthony Brown sucks.

But we're about to see how much we miss him now.

I think Bland is up for the task, actually, with his 2 INTs tonight.

And Kelvin Joseph actually makes for a better slot corner right now anyway.. I think this would help his game to gain some experience there.

This would be my solution. Move Bland to the outside and play Joseph as the slot/nickel/dime package cover guy.

Sad to see AB go down, though (projected torn ACL) because he really is underrated by much of the fanbase, probably the most underrated player we have this year.

This is going to be like our offensive line and signing Peters. Kelvin Joseph is going to have to prove he can be the man now. But here are the best still out there, if they're even still serious about playing.

Malcolm Butler
Richard Sherman
Kevin King
Ross Cockrell
Desmond Trufant (history with Quinn)
Donte Deayon

I guess there's a lot of history on this list with Trufant and Sherman having played for Quinn. Kevin King played for McCarthy. The Cowboys will be down to 4 healthy corners with Brown and possibly Goodwin out and the 4th is Nashon Wright. The Cowboys will definitely have to bring someone in this week even if it's adding to the practice squad.

Didn't think of this. This is probably best option over bringing in a FA at this point. Markquese Bell can take Mukuamus spot as 4th safety as they are set on keeping him.

He started 20 games for Atlanta under Quinn and he is FAST. Holds track records at OSU. Seems to be mostly a slot corner. I do think Bland can kick outside, if Joseph can't get it done.

Maybe talk to Deion or Rod Woodson out of retirement, those are guys that are old and broken down.

 

[plasticman]

Cowboys are thin, that's for sure.

Still, I'd like to keep it in house.

Time for Wright and Joseph to step up and perform.

The Cowboys pass rush allows some margin of error, a few weeks to grow into the starting positions. Perhaps, they could put Izzy at CB as a backup.

Signing a free agent veteran at this point would just slow the progress of those drafted to be the future secondary. We need to know about them

[Stsinaz12]

Can he replace brown or does he stay in the slot?

Bland. Is the replacement, And peters was an excellent signing. But we could always use my help.

 

[Xeven]

Richard Sherman all day. He can teach the kids too. Having SB experience on team is gold too.

 

[Cowboysheelsreds053]

Sherman is in the booth.

well, we usually had one crazy/strange person on our SB winning teams (Duane Thomas, Hollywood Henderson, Charles Haley)
