Irving listed as character issue for taking part in student protest and ripping stop sign out of the ground hurt his draft stock. Abrams needs a raise and promotion.

So the scout "found" him coming out of Iowa State? So why did he start his career with Kansas City? If anything it sounds like a Pro Personnel find.

Recognized his play on the field yesterday and was quite pleased yesterday. Hoepfully Irving can build off this performance and keep up the great play.

The scout found him on the practice squad at KC.

Apparently the "brain trust" had other ideas.

Usually if they use a geographic region with a scout, it notes the draft process. Far as I know, Abrams is part of college scouting.

If not, Edholm needs to be a little more specific if he wants to give out the pub.

I have been telling you guys that DAVID IRVING, TERRILL McCLAIN, MALIEK COLLINS are the difference makers... Add some Ryan Davis to that mix. Benson Mayowa is a dud and Tyrone Crawford is a disappointment...... Irving must be rotated enough to be viewed like a starter...... He makes game changing plays

For those asking why Irving doesn't play more. He's coming back from concussion, plus I don't think he's completely over his groin strain suffered in the preseason. Cowboys Break said he was limping pretty heavily after the game yesterday. I think they probably have him on a snap count.

That is true, he landed on his head trying to block a FG in the game 2 weeks ago. Add the groin strain to that, it makes sense they are limiting his snaps.

If we can get this guy completely healthy, look out!

Like it was said above, Irving has been somewhat injury prone, was coming off concussion and has had ongoing groin problem.

why are we not playing this guy more?!?!

Left the SF early with a concussion. Missed the Bengals game.
I think he had a few nagging injuries limiting him before that. Now he is healthy and another 2 weeks rest. We will see much more going forward.

Who cares about those stats, how many qb pressures did he get? that's all that matters.

He earned more PT going forward. Great game for him!
Irving had a big day on the stats sheet, but the work some of these guys do doesn't show up on the stats sheets.

I'm not diminishing Irving's play at all. These guys are working as a unit. Last week Mayowa had 2 sacks, mostly because of the pressure from Lawrence. Even w/ Lawrence out of the game, this week other guys stepped up and did enough to allow Irving to make plays. NExt game maybe Irving's working will allow another guys to get stats.

They may not be the most talented, but as a unit, they're working Fairly well so far.

Dez said told Fisher yesterday, "This night not about me. Put spotlight on whole Cowboys eam trying to do something special"

I missed a big chunk of the game. Where did they line him up? It seems like he is more effective as a 3T then a LDE.
