Broaddus on 103.3 this morning

I think Watt compares alot to Justin Smith.

http://espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?playerId=2552

Put Watt at RDE to rush the passer and move Igor to LDE to stuff the run. Then add another 34 DE in next years draft to replace Igor. I like Bowen but Bowen is not a run stuffer, this past season has shown that.

I think Watt can out up the same numbers that Smith does for the 49ers. Those are great numbers for a 34 DE

I don't know the circumstances with him no longer being employed by the Cowboys in the scouting department.

I know he was still here a year or so after Parcells took over so it was not a clean sweep of everyone when Bill arrived.

I don't know if they were eventually unhappy with the job he did for them. If there were other things that led to him no longer working with the cowboys.

It would be interesting if there was something there where he may hold a slight grudge against the cowboys.

I have read some things from him that could be taken that way but at the same time I think many here are hypersensitive to any criticism by anyone in the press when they talk about the cowboys...even if it is a valid criticism said in a possessional manner.

Yeah, I know a lot here think the criticism is unwarranted when it really isn't... and maybe I'm one of those guys... but there seems to be *something* lurking below the surface with him when it comes to Dallas.

Maybe I'm just hypersensitive with those ESPN Dallas guys and am sick of their snide comments about Dallas, and I'm unintentionally grouping Broaddus with them in my mind.

Oh well... I probably should just keep it to myself if I'm not sure. :D

Commanders could be a key to trading down depending on what they do.



A lot of stuff in the media today that sounds very familiar

Nah you don't have to keep it to yourself.
You are just expressing an opinion.

And who knows, you could be spot on. I guess I have not seen to much of it. I have disagreed with him a good deal on some things but I don't see him in the same category as a Galloway or JJT that sometimes just seems to rant and rave on some things in order to get attention...or someone like Skip Bayless who plays a specific role.

I think for the most part Bryan seems to tell it like he thinks it is and there are times we will disagree with him.

But, you just don't know, maybe there is something there, even if it is minute, that might make him view things with the cowboys in a way that makes it hard for him not to paint things to a degree.

You should charge them.

I cant remember who but one of the Cowboys beat writers did a piece on Dalton.

Read another from Spags that made me look twice

then a few minutes ago another talking about trade down scenario's

then to boot ESPN did a radio segment on the Houston Texans trading up and parroted the post in here.

Well we know for a fact that some in the Dallas media visit this board.

Not a shocker that they see someone info or posts and run with it.

At this time of the year anything is good for the rumor mill and causes some fan to click on a teaser link to some info.

However maybe you should email some of them and ask them to add this when writing out their stuff....according to an anonymous source (named SDOGO)...:laugh1:
 
No doubt every mediot with a brain (which is an oxymoron, I know) checks this site out before he writes an articl.

See, that's just it. I don't think that Rob Ryan is going to be spending the majority of the time lining up the defense in a base 34. There are going to be a lot of 4 man fronts, 46 looks, and his signature "cloud", "psycho"/ etc. fronts. He could use Watt inside in a 4 man line on passing downs and he would be ideal for that.

If Phillips were still our D Coordinator, I would agree that Watt would just be put at end and that's about it. With Ryan though, his history shows that he's going to do a whole lot of different things with his talented, versatile players... and Watt would be one of those.

That's the feeling I get. That's well put BP.
 
SDogo, can make a post stating that your sources say Patrick Peterson has some major red flags that have prompted several teams to completely remove him from their board?

I used to battle with Calvin Watkins daily. I dont even find it worth my time anymore. I dont care that they do, it's not like I'm the only one they do it with but at least have enough courtesy to give a private shout out to the source. Most of the time it took me says to even get an email reply.

I agree but Ryan runs the base 3-4 about 80% of the time. I like Watt and I'm ok with drafting him if we trade back and stock pile picks. The only problem is, I think we can find a DL that can play 4-3 DT and 34 DE in the 2nd and 3rd round. We need a starting RT and I don't want to trade back into the 1st and lose all our other picks in the draft.

I would rather have Castanzo, Harris, Ellis, Rackley and Sheppard over Watt and Carimi

I like Watt and would be happy with the pick if its at 14-17.
But if we get Watt can we still get a RT, a CB and a OG.
I would be fine with Watt if the draft goes Watt, Carimi, Harris, and Rackely.

I agree with all of that 100%.

I really think Watt is a good player and that he'd do well for us... but give me a Castonzo (with a small trade back) and a DE later on if it is my choice.

As a matter of fact, I'd love RT in round 1 and a G like Watkins in round 2.

Your Watt, Carimi, Harris, Rackley looks terrific if we could pull it off though.

thats the thing,we wouldn't be able to pull that off if we take Watt due to having to trade back in to the 1st

I don't want Watkins, no thanks. I think drafting a player early in the 2nd thats only going to play 4-5 years is a waste of a pick. Give me a Rackley, Ijalana, or a Cannon there as a OG over a 27 year old rookie.

If we have to trade back into the first then we lose our 2nd and 3rd round pick. We might have to then trade the extra 3rd and 4th to move back into the mid-late 2nd to get Rackely but that our draft, no more picks really.
