Cowboys not ruling out DeMarcus Lawrence at RDE

[CowboyRoy]

Its too bad. I think Lawrence could have been a real force at LDE. At RDE we may be looking at average.

Watch for Nkemdiche to fall and them try and get him. Fits many spots on the line.

Fits the Versatile linemen that they like.

Lawrence right now is the best pass rusher on the team I would put him on the RDE. I don't think this moves slows anything up development wise if anything his numbers should increase sack wise

 

[BAT]

I think it would be a mistake to move lawrence after the year he had last year at left end. Lawrence really looked great in the last eight games and to me movining him would slow down the momentum that could carry over for him this year maybe.

Not only did he look good at LDE, but will he be as productive without Hardy on the opposite side? Taking away Hardy and switching his position sounds like a Cowboys kind of move.

 

[ABQcowboyJR]

The guy isn't a RDE. Even when he came out I never thought he was quick twitch enough to play weakside.

 

[FuzzyLumpkins]

I get that you guys are hungry for information but it seems pretty obvious to me that we are getting a misinformation campaign going on here.

Don't pay attention to what they say. Look at what they do. Who do they talk to; who do they have into VR. We go through this every year leading up to FA and the draft.

Hardy on the other side had less to do with it than Crawford and Hayden flipping. Velcro is the albatross. Hardy's production crashed at the same time 90 emerged.

 

[Craig]

Ill wait and see who they get and where they line up in camp. Im not to worried about it beyond that. If they line up 4 ldes across the line i wont care as long as they get some disruption.

Yeah, but isn't that a pretty low bar right now?

 

[Doomsday101]

Does not change the fact that we still need more help at DE but producing 8 sacks on the left side I would think those numbers increase working on the right side

No, that's what I'm saying, considering the need at defensive end, saying he's the best we have isn't the biggest of compile best right now.

I'm not sure about that, as others have said and I agree, I'm not sure he's quick enough to be as productive on the right side. I think left side is his best fit and I was encouraged by what I saw from him there last season and I would just as soon leave well enough alone.

 

[Nightman]

It seems like we have a few LDEs in DLawrence, Russell, Irving, JCrawford and only 1 RDE in Gregory.

I think we should re-sign Hardy and let him focus on RDE and not so much on DT.

Switching from the left to right is difference between going against Doug Free every week or Smith. Big difference.

Yep. That sums it up pretty well.
