I was in the Cowboys page on one of the articles and some proposed this move in the offseason. He can't cover, but he would need to put on weight. Thoughts?

If Burnett leaves I actually expect for him to fill in on a lot of Burnetts duties.

That was a Biscuit reference Parcells made about Roy 5 years ago. Roy was a biscuit away from being a LB.

He was right, suprised it has not happened.

2009 I don't think Roy can even cover TE's and RB's

Hoping to be half the man Tom Landry was.

where did the nick name biscuit come from?

Big Bill said he was a biscuit away from being a linebacker when he was coaching here.

"He's a biscuit away from being a linebacker"

Anyway, he'd be good at stopping the run...

He can not tackle anymore! He just throws his shoulder out there and hopes for the best! He does not wrap up.

I'd like to have Roy play closer to the line. I guess ILB is a way to do that. Its going to be a difficult transition though.

With twice fractured Arm will Roy ever play again? It's a concern to me and I am sure him.

Roy is just as much of a finesse player as Barbie is at this point. He would dodge too much contact to be effective imho. We need some tough physical players on D not ankle/leg tacklers.

No, we're better off selecting a ILB and a NT early on in this year's draft and solidifying the interior of our defense.

Will this topic ever die? Every single year the same silly idea.

its so clear when Jason Campbell is trucking our other safeties.....

he "trucked" our safety with a LB as his trailer(jumping on his back at the same time) pushing him forward. Its not like it was EARL Campbell running all alone...Jason Campbell alone couldnt "truck" any safety in the league
