Blogging the Boys: Diggs or Bland Cowboys will have to choose

[RonWashington]

The one year of production gives pause. Keeping Diggs makes paying Bland prohibitive.

Diggs is not a factor right now . Bland Will be in camp competing

Fix the pass rush and you can suit up a traffic cone to play cb! lol

Neither....

A guy who gets beat a lot but gets INT's?

Yeah, it doesn't make up it

6 pick sixes in one year a mistake .

How many sixes did he give up?

How many sixes did he give up?

How many does anyone give up ? This obsession on this board with getting rid of Parsons Bland is bizarre

If so: Bland.

The obsession with one stat and not the overall body of work is bizarre.
This ain't fantasy football.
Outlier stats, in one season, don't mean much.

the TDs after his picks were fortuitous and circumstantial. Statistically, there is no predictive ability of future events.

It’s more than INT’s the guys a cover corner. Meaning passes are contested plus the dude tackles well for his position . Sure get rid of Bland with Diggs on injury leave meaning the Cowboys are in for 350 yards passing regularly. The theory on this board to lose Parsons and Bland is grounded in zero logic.

You win with premier talent that’s how this works .

No you can’t

So Bland is the young aggressive ball hawk corner you want to flush ?

I would say both have only been mediocre and have a tendency to go feast or famine. We have seen flashes similar to this before and there is a reason that a single high INT season is not worth paying big money for because it never duplicates itself. Meanwhile if you want to know what does sustain, it is good and solid coverage where you just lock a guy down. The CBs who can do that at a high level can replicate that year over year.

I’m past the 6 pick season for Bland I look at his tackling his cover skills I mean other then Bland the Cowboys have very little in the depth dept you trust out on an island .

Diggs is hurt Butler is hurt Amani O is a journeyman Carson is a 5th rounder whose rookie season was awful Booth looked terrible .

Fans think getting rid of Bland is solid strategy, really ?

Troy Pride Jr showed something last game of the yr vs Wash I want to see more of him in camp pre season and Jourdan Lewis has to be signed .

Bland is decent, not convinced he's great though. But the 6 pick sixes were anomalies. Statistically, they are not predictive.
They should really not be part of the decision process. That's my only point.

Blimey!
Bland has a higher ceiling. Diggs and his diva ways has plateaued, as we say in intellectual circles.

In run support tackling Bland . Cover skills a push . Health & age edge Bland . Keep Bland .
