Signed by Cowboys Cowboys agree to terms with Dontari Poe

[xwalker]

Stats don't matter when it comes to a nose tackle. His job is to eat double teams, plug the run and push the pocket on passing plays.
He can do all of that well and never show up on the stat sheet.
He'll allow the LBs to have a clean shot at the RB, he'll allow other D-linemen to get one-on-ones and he will take away the QBs ability to step up into the pocket.

If you are looking at stats for a 1tech DT then you're doing it wrong.

That's the kind of post I just look for the ignore button.

Anybody running a book on the number of posts before this is officially confirmed?
I'll bet a quilted 4-ply toilet role (currently the most valuable commodity on planet earth) at 2-1 odds on 500+ posts.

I don’t like Mike Nolan. He’s a loser

This season is not looking good. Hope Dak plays well enough to get the Pittsburgh QB job in 2021.#realorganization

I go where Dak goes... and I hope Dak can get the hell out of Dallas!

You think Mike Nolan can match SF defensive coordinator?

Cowboys only hope will depend on if MM can duplicate what Andy Reid did in KC. And I’m not about winning the SB, I’m talking about the 51-25 record KC had under Reid before Wonder Boi took a snap.

This defense could be way worse than it was under coach Nod. At the very least coach Nod D kept you in the game. I have my doubts with Nolan. Combined with less than stellar personnel, things might be ugly!

“I go where Dak goes”. Yikes, I like Dak & hope we sign him, but imagine being obsessed with Dak to the point where you have no integrity in fandom. Thread isn’t even about Dak & you’re on here creaming yourself over him. It’s embarrassing.

I'll give you this: you certainly live up to your name. It is literally GAME OVER for this 2020 team!

LOL!!!

Go follow Tom Brady or something.

4 days and counting with nothing official.

If this was just some "contract language", it would have been done by now.

Yeah, I don't get it either. Shouldn't be this difficult to finalize it.

Mayyyyybbbbbeeee they are thinking about Brockers now? lol

 

[kevm3]

A sensible signing

Too late... Rams recovered and re-signed him.

Yea that a fast signing after the tweets of the Ravens and Brockers not coming to an agreement,

Is this official? If so what are the details?

 

[Cowboy-33]

Really - what the heck is going on? Is he a Cowboy or am I gonna read that he signed with the eagals pretty soon ?

I assume that this signing will not become official until a physical can be completed on Dontari Poe since he missed the last 5 games of 2019 due to having surgery on a torn quad muscle. Would you want to guarantee money to a player that has not been able to provide a physical to show that he can play? I assume that the financial details and length of the contract has already been agreed upon.

 

[Cowboy-33]

Jerry can pay for a private dr to do a physical according to what I’ve read.

 

[Risen Star]

The Cowboys have finalized an agreement with veteran DT Dontari Poe on a one-year deal, according to a source. The financial particulars were agreed to on Monday but there had been a holdup on language. Poe, who turns 30 in August, needs to take a physical but his addition is a sure sign that the defense will change in 2020. In the past, the Cowboys wanted smaller, quicker defensive tackles, but at 346 pounds he is a true nose tackle.

They dipped their toes in the NT pool with the one year deal. They couldn't bring themselves to take a multi year plunge.
