Twitter: DE Swap: Randy Gregory activated; Zach Moore waived

[Zordon]

Clarence Hill is saying Gregory will talk to the media today after the game.

Hoping like heck Gregory gets his life together. Also hoping the NFL sees that with a player like Gregory, the structure of being a part of the team is more valuable than letting him figure out his life on his own.

Took the words right out of my mouth.

Here's to hoping the groin and hammy's make it through the extended workload unscathed.

Probably back to PS if not claimed.

Got him some nice Christmas money though

While all this is true...it's not the leagues job to help rehabilitate players

I could be wrong but thought I heard the reason for his latest suspension (1 year that's under appeal) is for him missing a drug/substance test while he was in rehab. If so, that would be rough.

A Christmas Miracle

I like Moore, doubt he goes unclaimed, but would be nice to sneak him back on the practice squad. He fits the bill as far as a d lineman should be size wise, and from what I've read athletic as heck, maybe coach Rod can show him how to use those tools....

Betting Moore doesn't get near the level of rueage as Darius Jackson

Has Jackson even been active since Cleveland acquired him?

Yes, that would be a low blow to someone that seems to be trying hard. Shame mental illness and addiction have not been taken seriously by the NFL yet, you get punished for being ill in the one part of your body(brain) that controls everything. I wish the NFL would back off and let him get on the right meds. I honestly think the marijuana is just a side affect of his bi polar, and it's the only way he feels he can manage his mood. I wish him nothing but the best, every time I heard him talk he comes off soft spoken, humble, and just like a generally good person.

Zach "No" Moore

Absolutely no chance of him being picked up by Baltimore....

It kind of is though. Especially with a kid like Gregory who is literally begging for help.

One down, one Moore to go

 

[CT Dal Fan]

Kind of surprised they gave up on Moore so quickly; while Ryan "The Invisible Man" Davis is still on the roster.

Plus, Davis is a free agent-to-be. If the Cowboys kept Moore on the 53 man roster, I believe they would have held his rights during the offseason.

Next year we need new DEs.

Next year we need new DEs.

Yes, we do, though I have to admit Benson Mayowa has been balling these past few weeks. If the Cowboys sign or draft a stud edge rusher this defense can get to another level. Anything they get from Gregory at this point going forward is gravy.

True, but he seems the type a team out of the playoff hunt snags off the waiver wire as many of them are putting nicked up players on IR as there is little to play for.

Even with both of them, we still need an alpha rusher.

Any team could have had Moore all season. Up until last week he was on Dallas' practice squad, so anybody was free to sign him. I think the Cowboys can get him back there. Teams will wonder why we gave up on him after just one game active.

They won their first game since he was claimed.......hmmm

Time to celebrate in the Gregory house. Where'd I put my lighter?!?

Moore was the MIN PS player we pinched early in the season.

Should make it back to PS. But would not mind adding Chris Culliver for Leon McFadden, Shaneil Jenkins for Ryan Davis and Davis Tull for Gachkar or Wilber. All would be upgrades. Would dump Dunbar too but he's gotta be Garrett's illegitimate son.
