Signed by Cowboys Cowboys sign ex-Jets edge defender Tarell Basham

[Sydla]

Lewis, Basham , Urban, Watkins, Mcquide > Peterson , Tomlinson

I'd take Johnson and Tomlinson any day over the four defenders we've signed thus far. It's not even close.

 

[Londonboy]

We're gonna Bash 'em up.

Like the depth moves today. Outside of 1T we really don't need a starter. Can usually get a solid 2 down DT in the first three rounds

 

[Risen Star]

I think Basham is fine as a 3rd DE. Which is what he will be if Gregory doesn’t get in trouble.

If Gregory gets in trouble. The cowboys are in trouble.

if he stays healthy. Having Lawrence, Gregory, Basham, and Anae or maybe bother mid round draft pick. Should be a solid edge rush actually.

it’s the DT’s that are still a concern.

we really need a top end free agent or they need to get an immediate high quality starter in the draft. Which is a big ask.

You have a real affection for mediocrity.

DL is deep now! Wow. Not as talented as I like but it’s better

Yep.

If the league allows all of them to play at the same time we are in good shape.

We need two real starters at DT. Not one. Two.

We need an entire new set of LBs, like 5 corners and a S.

Edit: 6 corners.

At 6' 4" 266 pounds is there any chance Dallas looks to play him as a MLB thumper type given LVE's injury issues?

Lol no

You mean at DL right? Because we could use a starting FS and MLB too. And frankly, I am not sure how one could be sold on Hill or Gallimore as a upper level starting 3T so that could be a target in the draft as well.

Terrell Basham didn’t get benched last season


Unlike a certain someone I know.....

 

[Risen Star]

Maybe they are just setting us up and out of nowhere they'll bring in a real player like a Kendall Fuller or someone.

Or maybe not.

I'm afraid the gem of the class may be Basham.

Who’s starting at RDE? If you’re penciling in Gregory you’re fooling yourself. We need another starting caliber RDE.

 

[Risen Star]

We operate on our own time. Relax.

What we want WHEN we want.

It’s going to be Gregory. I can tell you right now. That’s what the cowboys are banking on


I agree that it’s Risky as hell. But I guarantee that is the Jones’ boys thought process.

Darian Thompson is a veteran safety.

Just sayin'.

I would say of the three signed today Basham has the best chance for a roster spot and being in the rotation.

You need to do your research on Urban. He’s the real deal and sure thing for the roster. Everyone wanted a guy to help the run defense. He played with Baltimore, Tennessee, and Chicago, all good defenses where he was in the rotation. Not a lot of pass rush, but he was the third best run defender in the NFL. https://heavy.com/sports/dallas-cow...Tf1XkV0G3NPs85QnlA6-rM6lQ_bIFYIrXuEsyJezEywNs

 

[America's Cowboy]

I’m convinced this team is drooling over Ossai. I would expect them to move up on round two if he’s there.

Lawrence
Gregory
Ossai
Basham
Anae

is at least solid. The inside is a mess.

Quit saying that. The inside is not as bad of a mess now that they added 6'7", 295 lbs Brent Urban. This likely means the end of Tyrone Crawford, thankfully. So the Cowboys now have Trysten Hill, Neville Gallimore, Antwaun Woods and now Brent Urban playing inside at the DT positions. If they can draft someone like Alim Mcneill to play 1-tech, this interior D-line will be much improved and solid against the run.

How dare you

He is the diamond amongst trash...

 

[Kolemmitt]

man that guy called it....

He just sent out a tweet tonight, that they are still planning on adding several more defensive starters, including a starting safety. So, there is hope.

 

[My3Sons]

3 sacks last year for the lowly Jets. Some call that value. I think that is generous.
