Sure glad our front office prepared for the likelihood that unreliable players like Irving and Collins would be unavailable. We so attacked the DT position in the draft and free agency.

What about that gem of the trade where we got Ward for Switz?

Oh wait.....never mind....that was all Oaklands idea.

Hankins is still out there.

I just want to go one season with no player suspended.

Look on the bright side. This gives some of our younger and hungrier players a chance to fill the void. I'm curious to see who will take Irving's spot.

Serious question, does anyone know if the Cowboys have more players than the norm being suspended for PEDs, drugs or DV? Maybe it gets reported more because its the Cowboys but it seems like it.

There's a decent chance that both of the starting DTs will miss time to begin the year.
Who fills in? You can plug Crawford in at 3T
and he'll be steady. 1T? Brian Brice? Lol.
Isn't Hankins a FA? Goodness, he can't be that expensive at this point in the offseason - what do you have to lose? It's not like the FO has any more brain cells to lose when it comes to the DT position.

Storm wrote something up about this. We are near the top of teams that had players miss games due to suspensions.

I have zero faith in any dt after him. It's the position this team has not invested in.

What is wrong with our team and their drug use. Coaches and management need to get more involved. Build clauses into their contracts and bench these ****ers.

You stop giving chances. I have nothing personal against Gregory but I would have cut him after failing another drug test. Dallas used a 2nd despite failing at the combines his next one I would have sent him packing.

Actually, this would be our first suspension this year.

Jason says thank you very much I'll take that excuse and tuck it in my back pocket for later

Such a waste of incredible size and talent. Maybe he’s young enough to still get his life/career in order, but it surely will happen in a different city...if ever

KingintheNorth · Jun 15, 2018

Have to move on from him after this season.

Talented, gifted athlete but is hellbent on self-destructing.

If this year goes wrong, the 2019 draft is LOADED at DT.

Damnit.

Well, looks like we need to look at DT's in the 2019 draft.

And it will be a very strong position in the 2019 draft thankfully...

I think were allergic to DTs for some reason.

"you don't pick dumb players"...but we love too... and the injured guys... we love making everybody look bad with our great and genius picks.

I know that a lot of people discount Tyrone Crawford for his large contract, but I still reckon that he's a solid player. I do have confidence that he can play well. Maybe not to the level of Irving, but he is quietly consistent. I'm not quite sure why he gets disliked on here as much as he does. Also, let's not forget that we DO have Maliek Collins who has been good, when healthy. So, as far as his spot as a DT goes, I do have confidence in DTs on this team not named Irving. Plus, we have loads of young chaps.

Our DTs to start the season are just laughable.

Of course you blame the front office but also save some for the relic coordinator that's giving them really bad information.

The usual curmudgeons are in their usual places.......celebrating the bad news that hurts the Cowboys

It must be so satisfying to predict doom and gloom on every player and to proven right once and awhile

I was with the Irving Experiment until a few weeks ago when the wheels fell off

It is a shame but I don't take pleasure in it.......it makes us a worse team
