Denver seems to like players discarded by Dallas.

I think I saw Ekuban on MNF. Remember him? Maybe even getting a sack on MNF. Must've known that Cowboys fans of his were watching. They also had someone called Michael Myers. Wasn't he too one of those for whom Dallas fans had laughably high hopes.

And how are Shante Carver, Kavika Pitman, Antonio Anderson, Mike Ulufale, doing these days? Wane McGarrity? Macy Brooks, and Stepfret Williams? Don't forget Clay Shiver the center.

You know the worst part of it was that these guys would somehow play out of their skins and beat the Skins! Bad pun of course intended. Aaarrrggghhh!

I don't remember anybody having high hopes for Myers.

Ekuban was a different story as he did have 6 sacks his rookie year and was a former 1st rounder.

Ekuban had eight sacks for Cleveland last year. Shanahan gets plenty of mileage out of players other teams discard, like Jake Plummer. We're still having trouble sacking the qb 2 years after he's been gone. Maybe we're missing something on our player development, like a lot other teams who discard players and see them shine for other teams. Maybe a lot NFL teams ought to take a hard look at their programs and the way they do things.

You are right. For some reason, Denver likes our leftovers. They also took Leon Lett and Kavitka Pittman when they were pretty much done.

Yep, we traded up two spots to get Ekuban when Patrick Kearney was still on the board.

We traded back to get Kavika Pittman when we could have gotten that stud DE who went to the Jags ... I fuggets his name.

Skins tend to like ex-Cowboys as well

-Alvin Harper
-Tony Dixon
-Deion Sanders
-Brandon Noble
-Demetric Evans
-Nick Novak :)

I am sure there are plenty more but the Skins haven't had much success either.

Tony Brackens. Jones got entranced by a trade down with Washington and drafted Pittman and Scifres (or was it Shiver, I get those two wasted picks mixed up). Washington ended up with some OT that was awful.

Jones was bitter when Jax took Brackens a few picks ahead of us and coached the entire draft room into this STUPID fake cheer when they drafted Pittman. It was then that I could no longer deny that Jones was clueless and the rest of the staff were puppets.

Wade McGarrity plays in the CFL for Calgary I believe. Jason Tucker, Chris Brazzell and Jhermaine Copeland also play in Canada.
