Twitter: Cowboys close to signing Dontari Poe

[JW82]

This is annual bait and switch. I expect to see Suh sign with NY, Harrison with Washington and Poe with Philthy.

True. More DT, but still a little DE. I think there has been talk of using him as a 4-3 DE for us. A bigger version of what we do with Crawford.

Who Poe at DE?

They already have too many DT's....I'd be shocked if they go for that market again.

It's not a bad approach to take, especially when two different reporters will say the totally opposite things in an effort to be "first"



I'm not accusing them of being deceitful, I'm frustrated that they're not doing enough.

The media has definitely figured out how to sell their product.

As for the team not doing enough, I still think there is time. If they get Poe, I think that would be very positive for the defense on top of the McCoy and Dix deals. Of course, who knows how accurate the reporting is on Poe? That could be more media exaggeration.

If we are still sitting where we are now when the draft rolls around I'll be frustrated too. Really before that - we really need the important deals done well before the draft. We can hope for some help from the draft, but we can't really expect more than 1 or 2 players to have a great impact in their first year.

Poe would likely slot in as a starter alongside DLaw, McCoy & Crawford on the D line.

This seems possible to me.

 

[speedkilz88]

They were interested, but Poe weighed in at 348 and it that was 48 lbs heavier than “we like” at the 1T........

To 2020

 

[OmerV]

To 2020

Yep. McCarthy has used fat boys before.

Along with Nolan & Tomsula.

Agreed it does...Hopefully Gregory is back and play at high level...finally.

You couldn’t even be clever enough to put a snarky “Cowboys fans want the D” in there?

Eagles fans are getting jealous we are getting Poe. They wish their Cox was that fat.

McCoy.

no doubt

 

[Corso]

no doubt

Teeny bit of doubt.
They may be truly worried about his health after that season-ending injury and maybe the proper medical procedures to check it out aren't as readily available right at this second.

Just spit-balling here...
