Like I have been telling people on this board for the past few days: you can get any bum off the street to play guard.

I call BS. If they signed THESE guys and said they plan to start them? That does not sound like Jason Garrett. It's only March. Maybe they will start, but not until they show they can beat out the competition....rookies, other possible FA pickups, current players on the roster, etc.

The day he arrived I was really kind of peeved. I didn't think much of him. Boy did he prove me wrong. I have eaten crow many times over how wrong I was about him.

Here's hoping one at least one of these two new guys proves me as wrong.

Doesn't sound like Jason Garrett. Sounds like Jerry Jones.

Sure they will compete, but somebody has to line up in the starting lineup when minicamps start up. The guys given the 3-4 million a year contracts will be the ones that most likely do that.

This one saddens me. End of an era.

This is going to sound cynical, so my apologies up front, but what era? The Kozier era? I mean, he was a good player, and I sure appreciated having him, but it isn't exactly up there with having Larry Allen for 12 years.

I concur with the concensus that Kosier played well as a Cowboy and certainly outplayed his contract. However, his legs just keep breaking down on him and I don't think his body can take the sport anymore. I do hope he retires and I hope he has saved much of his earnings and lives a comfortable life.

I agree. I also feel he would make a pretty good OL coach one day.

And like the past few days you are still wrong.
