I'm glad we locked him for another 4 years. He's underwhelmed a bit this year, but pretty much so has the entire team.

The guy's a beast with alot of leadership qualities. Good for Jerry to keep him.

Average player that Jones no doubt overpaid for.

I wonder how many years it will take Jones to realize that it's foolish to keep re-signing players who - collectively - have shown they cannot win.

exactly....and too bad Columbo gets lumped into this....but you cannot keep a lockeroom of underachievers intact

I'm surprised Jerry is so willing to throw around his money right now. I think I would be a little stingy at this point. Either way, I like Columbo, truth be told we need 3 more of him along the OL.

DMN said they had been working on the extension for quite some time.

Probably wanted to get this done and out of the way so they can concentrate on Ware's next year...and any other potential FAs.

When was the last time we even let a half decent player walk? If you're a starter and you're not awful, Jerry will resign you. I like Columbo because of his toughness and his heart and let's face it, he doesn't have any competition for his spot, I just hope we didn't overpay.

I like columbo alot, he shows his emotion and to me is the heart of the line. a few penalties, but i still am very happy to have locked him in.

I like Marc Colombo. He might not be a great right tackle or athletically gifted becuase of his past knee injuries, but he'll fight. He's got a real nasty edge to him and I like that in an o-lineman.

I didn't here the great Lamarr Woodley's name much yesterday. Colombo did a nice job.

I thought he planned on getting this done right before Giants game... get Colombo pumped. ;)



Give Jerry credit for getting Romo all the tools(keeping good pieces)...

at the people who think this is a bad thing.
LOL at anyone who thinks Columbo is anything more than an average player.

I'd bet nobody in the Cowboys organization would agree with you that he is just average.

He is a damn good pass blocker for a Right Tackle and a really good run blocker as well.

My bet is you couldn't tell a great offensive linemen from a bad one.

Colombo is a good solid player and can match up with anyone lined up across from him.

Good to here.I think he earned it.Consider where he was a few years
ago with his knee torn apart.He always gives it his all.

I don't know if Columbo is anything resembling an outstanding player, but I'm certain this is better than the alternative of starting one of the backup tackles or praying that someone we draft in the 2nd or 3rd round is a capable starter. The bed was made for the Cowboys when they failed to groom young tackles to replace Columbo and Adams.
