Twitter: Dallas finalizing deal with DE Everson Griffen

[Direwolf63]

This is funny. They just drafted Hill in the 2nd round 16 months ago. He isn't going anywhere.

Hill might make the team but he must up his play considerably if he's going to be active on game days

Helps our younger corners. Especially after losing Byron.

Could see us being a defense that finally creates turnovers.

That'd be tremendous! And that will help the O

 

[Cowboysheelsreds053]

More like an old, overpaid one.

LLLOOLLL

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

Will you look at that.

That is nice!!!!!! Hope we have a season to showcase it!

 

[DandyDon52]

Will you look at that.

wow the defense is starting to look pretty good !
If only we still had heath !!

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

Can we cut ty craw now please

Maybe we will be trading him? Id imagine Marinelli might want him in Vegas.

He hasn’t really played DT since 2017.

are you talking about him in the sense as a starter .. or nickel rotational DT ?
He's started for an injured Malik Collins, but he's been in the rotation as a nickel rusher.

2018 Dallas Cowboys
If you remember back to 2018, Randy Gregory and Tyrone Crawford rotated snaps at RDE. On the season Gregory tallied 457 snaps while Crawford claimed 632 snaps (although some of Craw’s came inside in nickel situations). While both players are a year removed from that season, it can provide a glimpse of what life is like with a Gregory/Crawford duo at RDE.

Wow. Wonder if this the end of Gregory in Dallas?

Anywho. Great offseason for this team. New leader, great draft and a very good FA.

I seriously doubt it. Everson Griffin is 32 years old and will be turning 33 in December. He's probably only going to be here 1-2 years, enough time to determine if Randy Gregory will eventually be reinstated by crooked Roger Goodell. Randy Gregory is only 27 years old, just entering his prime and hardly has any wear and tear. You don't give up on such talent this is very fresh and still fairly young.

 

[Aven8]

Snacks would’ve been perfect. I just have this feeling Poe isn’t going to make it. He looks way out of shape and injured. We’ll see?

Well they don’t call you Pessimist for nothing I see!

 

[quickccc]

wow, no mention of rookie bradley anae...?

 

[Pessimist_cowboy]

If you gave me the choice of Griffen or Quinn right now I’d take Quinn. Especially with the teams upgrade at DT.

 

[Rayman70]

ANAE is flying under the radar. What happens if he is a stud? Who gets less reps and maybe released? I am certain Anae will get major reps. This defense has the makings of a SB team. If healthy, we can do some big damage,

God I love this off season!!!

 

[Rayman70]

Yup I just said that too. The kid will be special. Flying under the radar. He will be a weapon for us ON D.

SO FUNNY TACO WAS CUT last year. A first round flop. Stands to reason Hill will be on a short leash and needs to gave a perfect camp. He very well could be cut. However, the guy that might be gone is Armstrong.

Simple; just rotate Lawrence, Griffin, Smith and Anae in that case.
Keep them fresh, dominate in the fourth quarter and in the playoffs.
That formula carried the Giants to two Super Bowls.
Provided all four actually prove to be productive guys.

McCarthy has said he’s keeping 6 Edge players. Anae will battle Joe Jackson for the 6th spot.

Where the hell have I been?

I would be willing to bet Hill won’t make this team. Anyone with All22 would know why. Go watch him. He might be the worst player I’ve ever seen. No balance, no power, no leverage, he gets pancaked on every single play. I’m not exaggerating go watch. He was a pure Rod Marenneli pick and even Rod gave up on him year 1. He has no shot.

Really unexpected but great addition getting Everson Griffen! Plenty of good stuff left in the tank, as I understand it.

I heard on the late night news, a while ago, he was signed to a 1-year deal for 3 million smackers! 6 mil in bonuses.

This really adds some serious bite to a defensive line that seriously needed another pass rushing stud. I'm ecstatic!
