Signed by Cowboys Cowboys Sign S Keanu Neal

[JW82]

Is he any good?

he’s a quality player/ tough guy. He’s been a pure SS not a FS. Good at the line vs the run. Word is they see him playing WLB here. Very athletic for a LB if they go that route.

 

[gimmesix]

Im guessing Wilson would he the FS on run downs and then move to SS on passing downs. Probably get 70% of his snaps at SS

One thing positive, though, if that's the plan, we'll have two hard-hitting safeties out there. Receivers will pay as their offenses move down the field on personal foul/defenseless receiver/blow to the helmet/breathing too hard on an offensive player penalties.

I’m not gonna drink the Dallas Cowboys Koolaid yet.... But I just added the sugar. Bring in a run stuffing DT.

We really need help at DT
Our 3 techs are unproven and 1 tech non existent

There is no way we let him wear Barry Church’s old number. Put it up in the rafters this season.

For sure. Put some respect by Barry's name!!!!!!

 

[gimmesix]

He really wont have much pass defense responsibilities at FS save PA. And it wouls give us a good pair of run defending S's

Teams pass on running downs. He'd be the centerfielder. Not sure he's suited for that role.

And the other guy we’re interested with a torn Achilles, Malik Hooker.

Haters gonna hate.

 

[Rockport]

Sad state of affairs indeed.

Always negative. Negative is what you do. You do you.

 

[visionary]

Why do we have to pay over market value for guys to come here? I just don't understand.

Harris only gets $5M with the Eagles
King only gets $5M

We have to pay Neal $5M? What the hell?

no one wants to play with Dak

 

[plymkr]

All three of them have torn their achilles

That's a desired trait in Whitts secondary

And a desired trait with the Jones. They love their crippled guys, lol. But seriously I kind of like this signing. I like that he is a "physical presence" and can hit people. He knows the system and sounds like a hitter. We need that on this defense. Imagine a defensive player that understands what he's supposed to do on a play and then hits the offensive guy. We haven't had that in years.

BOOOOMMMM!!!!!! Championship!

 

[JBS]

Now let's see if they lose interest in the two safeties.

 

[darthseinfeld]

Makes sense. You still don't have a coverage FS

 

[RonnieT24]

I think McCarthy's trust in Nolan was the problem. It was a moved that failed. Probably McCarthy's 1st strike. The buck always stops with the HC.
If Dan Quinn fails then, McCarthy is gone and we can start the Kellen Moore 50 burger Era till Dak leaves

The thing about the way things went with Nolan is that the defense appeared to have started to play better down the stretch. As it turns out that was fool's gold borne of playing backup QBs, along with a disinterested veteran in Ruthlessraper and a basket case in Wentz. When they proceeded to get lit up by Daniel Jones you knew that Nolan needed to be fired. A team that hadn't scored 20 points in the three previous games combined hung what was it 23? on us by halftime. Time to go, Mike.

These players want one year deals because they can sign for more money under the new tv deal next year.

And I like it...

 

[Rockport]

Boom

Great signing. The Cowboys were horrible lately against the run. This guy is a physical presence against the run.

One thing positive, though, if that's the plan, we'll have two hard-hitting safeties out there. Receivers will pay as their offenses move down the field on personal foul/defenseless receiver/blow to the helmet/breathing too hard on an offensive player penalties.

teams will pass on this defense all day abd without quality DTs the run will be open and no pressure on the QB

as usual our FO prioritizes the wrong stuff

 

[CT Dal Fan]

Imagine if the Cowboys end up with all three (Neal, Hooker, and Kazee). Makes up for all the years of ignoring safety.

 

[morasp]

Couldn't find one that doesn't redirect to youtube.

 

[Risen Star]

You wonder if the NFL will enforce a Rooney McClay rule on the Cowboys in the future where before a free agent can talk to us they must interview with at least one other team.

They have to do something.

 

[CT Dal Fan]

Great signing. The Cowboys were horrible lately against the run. This guy is a physical presence against the run.

Neal and Donovan Wilson will also make receivers hear footsteps as well.
