Signed by Cowboys Cowboys Sign DE Kerry Hyder

[Awakened]

Anyone know the length of his new contract?

Best-case, this season's Jeremy Mincey. Worst-case, this season's Kony Ealy

Insurance for the Crawford suspension...because you know it's coming.

Saw Kerry Hyder play 4 times in person when he was in college at Texas Tech. Since two of my kids went there, I watched a lot of Tech football. Hyder is a good but not great, solid DLineman. He is very strong and gets a good push. At Tech, he was underrated because he usually played on bad defenses.

If he’s healthy he will be a dependable rotation guy. Not spectacular, but capable of making plays on occasion. A star player he is not. But he has potential to be an excellent role player.

He looked much better in the NFL than in college.

In college he played DE on a 3 man line in the games I watched. He has a sloppy (fat) build.

In the NFL he appeared to drop considerable weight and played as a 4-3 DE in 2016.

I'm hoping for a strong rotational group up front.
