Brewster

[dasander]

You recall very very very wrong. Brewster was never in conversation for LT. Free was and is. Period. I am 100% certain. Free talk really picked up towards end of Pre-season.

And towards season, he played sparingly at LT at times even when Flozell was healthy, so they have lot of confidence in him even prior to him playing for Columbo at RT.

Brewster at first was talked about as Guard, but after first camp I think, Wade started mentioning him playing Tackle specifically RT, before he got injured and Wade seemed pretty high on him.

Dude, just give up on the Brewster mentioned as LT already. Like I said there never was any talk, no matter what research you do. At least none by coaching staff. Maybe it was Mike Florio who said, since he is such a credible source

I remember Hudson Houck saying that they would try him at the hardest position on the OL, being Left Tackle, and see how he does from there. Unfortunately he got injured and they didn't get to try that in training camp. I still think no matter what, Brewster is a guard or a right tackle.

Is Brewster going to be a RT or OG? I havn't heard much on how he is doing and what he's projected at playing.

If they think he's an OG, that could impact on what we do in the draft. Unless Iupati falls than I'm not sure Jerry spends a premium pick on an OG. History just tells us that.

I hope we hit on Brewster or he at least becomes a solid backup for a few years.

Line for the future
LT-drafted this year
LG-Brewster
C-JD Walton(3rd round?)
RG-Davis
RT-Free

I was just talking to Bryan Broaddus about him the other day.

Broaddus says that he sees him around Valley Ranch and he's not looking much different than he did last season. The point of this is that when the Cowboys drafted him the knock on the kid was that he lacked upper body strength and this was the #1 thing he needed to work on before the Cowboys could even look to him as a 'real' backup who could step in and play should someone go down.

He tore the pectoral muscle so of course this slowed down his progress on building his upper body. But in most cases the recovery time is said to be about 2-3 months.

I just hope the kid is willing to put in the time and energy to get himself in the right physical condition to where he can compete in the NFL at a high level.

He's a Guard from what I hear. Who knows. Maybe he comes in this summer playing like a young Nate Newton and pushes Kyle Kosier for the job.

I think Brewster will get a look at LG.Hopefully he can challenge Kosier for a starting role on the team.I still see Free as a RT prospect,just don' think he'll ever be strong enough to be a LT.

I agree about Kosier because his pulling ability doesnt outweigh his lack of ability to anchor in my opinion.

I have seen friends who are power lifters tear a pec and it limits you from heavy weight lifting for a year. Just saying I could see this delaying him if it was a bad rip.
