Davin Coleman and the backup DL

[ActualCowboysFan]

^^
This is the question.

DT

• T Crawford, Hayden, Coleman, Bishop, McClain, J Crawford

DE

• Hardy, Gregory, Mincey, DLaw, Russel, Gardener, Edwards

13 players for maybe 9 spots
Gardener is my first cut, then Hayden

Well Hardy won't count at first and I'd add a tenth spot for the DL on the 53. Gregory, Lawrence, Mincey are locks at end. Both Crawfords look certain at tackle. Coleman should be in. Don't think they're going to cut Russell. Edwards probably stays until Hardy comes back.

That would leave two spots between Gardner, Hayden, and Bishop. So I'd say if it's between those three there's no way they don't view him as one of the best two.

Now if they go shorter on the DL, which might be somewhat more likely due to their special teams needs, maybe his shot would be minimized. But I wouldn't count on it even then.

Hopefully the new guys produce enough that once Hardy comes back Hayden becomes a less common presence on the field.

I cant let go of Bishop his got a little movement from the 1

If it comes down to Coleman and Bishop, I would put my boot first to kick Bishop off the planet.

I'll be pissed if Coleman gets cut.

No way that can happen.

Yea I get that but they play different positions. Coleman is the better player

Forgot T McClain

THE FO and the coaches made sure that Hayden has no competition by not even considering drafting a Dt,now the worst DT in the league inevitably will be replaced(hopefully but not sure with Marinelli) by a UDFA.

If Coleman doesn't make the team, there's something wrong

pissed is an understatement.

seeing hayden and heath on the sidelines not even playing tonight really irks me.

 

[Fla Cowpoke]

They will keep 10, Hardy won't count initially. Bishop and Gardner are the odd men out, hope they can stick on the PS but I think there is a great chance that Bishop gets claimed.

 

[Pessimist_cowboy]

don't rule out trading one for a draft pick or some depth at S or LB.

Edwards likely waived injured.

You're seeing what I'm seeing.

 

[Pessimist_cowboy]

coleman is a lock after tonight.

How does Nick Hayden make this team?

How do you not have a golden cock on the team?

 

[CATCH17]

I feel like we will keep 9 DL and I see bishop and Gardener going to the practice squad (one may be on active until week 4 Hardy). I think Lavar Edwards is decent but I think he'd be better off in a 3-4 defense. So I'd release him.

Mincey
Crawford
Gregory
Hayden
Mcclain
Lawrence
J Crawford
Coleman
Russell

I'd bet every DLinemen we cut gets picked up.

Per Braddous..... Coaches can trust Hayden to be where he suppose to be and take up blocker and play within scheme.
Coleman... not trusted yet. Don't know if he will revert back to old self once he's told he made the team.

maybe , but it would be nice if we could sneak Bishop/Gardener on the practice squad. Both have some upside.

 

[Oh_Canada]

I'll be pissed if Coleman gets cut.

Unless there is something in his mental makeup JG/Maranelli can't overlook, I don't think you will be punching any walls any time soon. Coleman should be a lock.

But he should consistently draw double teams and hold up. Very few teams double Hayden as he gets turned and driven back too easily. THere were numerous videos on this the last couple of years.
