Cowboys look at Montreal Alouettes CB's

[cowboyjoe]

A pair of Montreal Alouettes cornerbacks auditioned for the Cowboys this week (via ESPN’s Adam Schefter on Facebook): Mitchell White (brother of Giants wideout Myles White) and Mycal Swaim (brother of Cowboys tight end Geoff Swaim). White had previously worked out for the Cardinals, while Swaim spent time in Buccaneers training camp.

Are they at the bottom of the barrel?

Just camp fodder. Nothing more. If the Cowboys brass expect anything more, then they are more desperate than I thought.

I like it not because they're good but because we are looking EVERYWHERE

 

[Doomsday101]

If either guys understands and can play in zone coverage then they have a leg up on some of the CB currently on the roster.

Risen Star will be ecstatic that the Cowboys have the opportunity to have another Swaim on the roster

Smart move. The only person who can cover Geoff Swaim is another Swaim. If we sign the brother....good luck NFL.

There isn't a border I wouldn't cross for more cornerbacks. One with Swaim bloodlines is just too good to be true.

That's pretty much the thought process. Block teams from the one way they may slightly contain him.

gotta admit, thinking about your iner rage as we look into adding a CB...related to Geoff Swaim is hilarious

 

[Teague31]

Sign them both. They would be immediate upgrades over Carr and Mo.

 

[CowboyChris]

gotta hand it to Jerry, he is scouting internationally, first it was Obada from England and now a pair from Canada.

I'm not sure they are in the barrel

 

[BAZ]

You gotta like thinking outside of the box. Leagues zigging with black cornerbacks and boom Cowboys zag buy bringing in a white one. Nobody expected it. It's genius, if you don't really think about it too much or focus on the details. Some might call it the missing piece.

 

[RW31]

Those Swaim/White bloodlines.

 

[xvendettax914]

We have had no draft. No free agency. No trades. And yet this move appears "desperate" Got it.

Will McClay is just kicking the tires in every junk yard available to him looking for that diamond among the trash.
Give him some time and he will come up with a few diamonds and, if not, a few emeralds. It's early and they
are just filling out the roster for training.

 

[CCBoy]

Even an emerald has to show great light through it to be valuable.

Sometimes by looking everywhere else, you can miss what is right in front of you.........just a thought.....
I do not mean keep Carr / Mo by that either.

I don't mind this a bit, at this point of the off season, it is time to look everywhere you can. Doesn't mean they too can't be churned. As they usually are. But at least they are making an effort. Leave no CB unturned. LOL.
