And I think we have to give a lot of credit there to Marinelli for that.
Wilcox is playing much better football, and a lot of us hoped that he would develop. It's important to remember that this kid really didn't play much safety in college.
We might have got a pro bowl linebacker in McClain, and for peanuts. I'll give Jerry, Garrett, and Marinelli credit for this one. I think a lot of fans use the term pro bowl to casually, but I think it fits for McClain. He's been lights out.
I have to eat crow on Durant (more so than on Carter). I had Durant off the roster, but he is showing what the Cowboys originally saw in him when they brought him in here. He is a legitimate player, but I think next year he may be our 4th linebacker. Carter has found his role in the strong side linebacker, though we all thought weak side would be perfect for him. He always seems to finally develop once Lee is out. I'm glad Carter has begun to turn it around and get some confidence. He is the antithesis of Morris Claiborne, who will always be the poster child of a failed investment for this defense.
This team also showed that they believed in Orlando Scandrick. I think myself and a lot of other fans weren't happy that he was signed to such an expensive contract for what we thought we were getting. Again, we have to eat crow there. This guy is a player.
Sterling Moore on the other hand I've been singing his praises since we first got him, and couldn't make heads or tails out of why we kept cutting him for guys like BW Webb.
