Brian Burns says the Giants are ready to exploit the Cowboys' weakness at RT

Dude, starting T’s don’t grow on trees. There is not a stable of T’s hanging out ready to be traded for. Any T worth a damn would require a first or second rounder in a trade.

Hardest position in sports to find good players. 300 pounders with quick feet long arms and balance, they aren’t just out there ripe for the picking.

Either you draft one and develop or you sign one for big money in FA. At this point there’s little to nothing out there to fix the T position.

Also, so many other teams have a bad tackle lol. You think they wouldn’t upgrade if they could?

Good faith question here. Do you think Broderick Jones is an upgrade at RT?

I kinda hope they do — not enough to get Dak hurt or lose the game, but enough to make the Cowboys trade for a legit OT. Broderick isn't ready and clearly Shelton isn't ready and Terence has been a liability for years. At this point, I'd rather have a good RT (assuming Guyton is good at LT, of course) than a superstar Edge. I'm just so sick of Steele.

There aren't a lot of teams with spare OT around to just trade for worth the capital it takes.

Yes its a weakness in pass rush, but its been a weakness for years and our offense continues to produce at a high level.

Depends on how you view it. Is he currently an upgrade over Shelton? Yes. Is he an upgrade over Steele, maybe not but potential may be there.

The arrogance is pretty impressive considering the past outcomes.

All I heard was blah, blah, blah.

Yada, yada, yada is what I heard

Broderick Crawford? He was a seriously tough guy but I doubt he ever played Tackle.

further research showed he played interior line at his high school

Matthew Broderick.
