Darian Barnes at fullback

Kenyon Coleman at DE

Abram Elam at Free Safety

Memory serves that these were all special teamers that achieved nothing of prominence in the Dallas rotation.

Hope Dallas can exploit her castoffs.
 
I seem to remember a few castoff linebackers for the Cowboys being on the Saints last year.

Actually, the last 4 years we had more Jets castoffs starting for our team.

To many to name
 
Barnes was a hammer that IMO lost his job because of an injury. I would like to have him back right now with the injury to the Cricket.

That is one thing that I like about the current team, none of the coaches former "guys."

Kenyon Coleman was a pretty good pass rusher for us. I also liked Barnes as a blocker but he was pretty one-dimensional.

Very nice to see that Wade didn't try to bring in "his guys" like Parcells did who were mostly older vets and well past their ability to contribute materially.

I did think it was weird to see Jason Fabini starting at RG for the Commanders on Sunday, he couldn't beat out rookie Rob Petitti at RT when he was with us. He actually did a nice job against our guys.

Ryan Young, Richie "Fumble-it-at-the-wrong-freakin-time" Anderson, Vinny Intercepteverde, Drew "the Statue" Deadslow, Dedric "no-hands" Ward, Adrian "I quit my job at UPS to play for Bill" Murrell, Aaron Glenn, Terry Glenn, Jason Ferguson, & Keyshawn Johnson. I'm sure there are a few that I'm missing but those are the ones I could remember him bringing in.

Terry Glenn, Ferguson, and Keyshawn all played well for us but most of the others were dead weight and were brought in to help the players buy into BP's style which I don't believe they ever did, certainly not the majority.

Denver used to be called Cowboys West, maybe now the Jets will be called Cowboys East.

I agree Thumper. In fact, I'll bet Jerry Jones learned his lesson from that and we won't see that happen again when we go shopping for a new HC.
