Signed by Cowboys Cowboys signing Anthony Barr

[Ranched]

My gosh. The Jones' are fixated on LB's. The main issue I've seen w/Barr is & always has been his health. He missed a combined 30 games in his 8 seasons w/the Vikings due to six different injuries, three of which recurred twice.

For a big bodied NFL LB now in his 30s, it’s only downhill from here. The fact that he remained unsigned this close to training camp is a sign that all 31 other franchises also have their reservations.

I'd have rather used some of that dry powder to improve another area of the team.

LB is a position of need. Cox has a lot to prove...although i think he will.

 

[JohnsKey19]

I don't get this signing, to be honest.

Hopefully Jabril Cox's knee issue isn't the reason they suddenly signed Barr...

They are angling for the inside track to secure his sister, Roseanne, to sing the anthem for the Jimmy ROH game.

Didn’t they cut a LB?

 

[Bowdown27]

Wow!!! I can not believe we actually signed him.

6'5" 260lbs sheesh

We needed another proven vet on d. How many leaders are really on the defense?

lol

How are they fixated on LBs? we have two who have played any significant games in the NFL.

We needed a vet brought in for stability if nothing else. If he plays 10 games, that helps with the young guys coming along.

Well yeah. But you're not signing Barr to replace a guy who had a 5% chance to even make the roster...

 

[JD_KaPow]

True , but LB we are thin , razor thin from one injury …. Cox coming from ACL and LVE is not sure thing with his neck.

Yes. Linebackers get hurt; it's what they do. You need a stable of them.

 

[Carson]

Man I was wrong!!!

Hell yeah! Now go sign Beas

 

[OmerV]

Curious to see how they use him. He was a pass rusher in college, but has never had many sacks in the NFL.

 

[JD_KaPow]

I thought Micah was going to play all 3 LB spots simultaneously . To be honest.

Dallas only uses two LBs on any given play.

The defense ran 12 snaps all season in base defense (3 LBs).

I'm afraid that bridge is burned. I liked Beas! he was my size!

I know man. That was sarcasm/ Micah love.


Micah can play all 3 LB spots. Even when the defense is in Nickel or Dime.

 

[Alexander]

Are you sure Stephen would do this? This doesn't sound right.

It seems too aggressive.

 

[Risen Star]

Hopefully Jabril Cox's knee issue isn't the reason they suddenly signed Barr...

Yes. Exactly.

 

[Hardline]

He had a choice between the Cowboys and Broncos and he chose the Cowboys?

The guy is a moron.
