Twitter: Cowboys working on a deal to sign veteran guard

[Bizwah]

Speaking off veteran OL. Is Dem. Bell ever going to pass his conditioning test?

Rich Cimini ‏@RichCimini 15m
Ex-Jet Brandon Moore drawing interest from Cowboys, per @ESPNDallas. Moore told me 2 wks ago he'd sign if right opportunity came along.

 

[TheSport78]

I would be ecstatic if we brought him in. Light years ahead of Bernead-bum and Livings is certain to be cut.

"Don’t let one of the league’s most infamous fumbles, which happened to involve Moore’s buttocks, distort your view. He was one of the best interior linemen in the league and part of a New York Jets offensive line that surprisingly ranked near the top of the league. His +21.3 grade ranked fourth among guards, and, as Moore mentioned to our own Sam Monson, his goal was to finish the season on a strong note — which he did with nine straight positive grades to top off 2012."

Their ratings are horrible. Don't even pay attention to them.

Whether or not he was the 4th best last year, he's been considered a top guard his entire career and made the Pro Bowl in 2011. He's a good player. And he's not THAT old.

So... he isn't sure if he actually wants to play football again. Needs some time to think about if that is enough money to motivate him.

Should be a fantastic signing.

Or he was waiting for the right opportunity at 33 years old. Waters didn't practice once at camp for the Pats in 2011 and made the Pro Bowl. Even if Moore was 43, he'd still be better than Livings and Bernadeau. I cannot wait until those two bums are off the team.

"Brandon Moore has texted ESPN New York's Rich Cimini to dispute the original report, saying that he is waiting for the right opportunity"

Yeah, that's what Cimini reported on too.

The Cowboys are in discussions with veteran guard Brandon Moore, according to sources, and a deal could go down quickly.

Owner and general manager Jerry Jones hinted at a deal for a veteran offensive lineman after Tuesday’s practice but would not divulge a name or names. Brian Waters’ name has been linked to the Cowboys, but sources have said there have not been any meaningful discussions.

Moore, 33, played for offensive coordinator Bill Callahan for four years with the New York Jets. He spent his first 11 seasons with the Jets, starting 142 of 144 games in his careerand every game since 2005. Moore recently refuted a report that he would be retiring, telling ESPNNewYork that he was in shape and ready to go.

Nate Livings is expected to miss 2-4 weeks because of knee surgery last week andMackenzy Bernadeau returned to practice late last week after missing the first two-plus weeks with a hamstring injury. Ronald Leary has worked with the first team in Livings’ absence and has earned praise from the coaches

@cowboys20121 Have you studied Brandon Moore? I have and you are just looking at a name. There is no substance to his game

imho, even though Livings is worse off health wise- a Moore signing is indicative of Bernadeau. G'teed salary for Livings, not Mack.

Broaddus isn't always right. He actually stated last week that there was no way the Cowboys were signing Brandon Moore. Oops.

He may have played bad last year but there is no way he could be washed up at 33.

Because Broaddus is the voice of reason lol...that's why he's currently a scout for...oh wait

If your guard situation is bad - and everyone knows it - why do you wait until August to address it? Because hope is the strategy too often.
