Jerry Jones ruled out acquiring a receiver who has never worked with Tony Romo. His logic is that by the time such a receiver got in a rhythm with Romo, Sam Hurd and Miles Austin would be ready to go.
"We won't have anybody out there that has not been on the team trying to move the ball against Cleveland," Jerry said.
There's a veteran receiver named Terry Glenn who has worked extensively with Romo. Glenn has been unemployed since the Cowboys cut him on the second day of training camp, which is the last time Jerry has had any contact with him or his agent.
Jerry, who left the door open to Glenn returning when he was cut, danced around questions about whether the Cowboys would be contacting Glenn. He said he wasn't sure whether Glenn, who still might need microfracture surgery on his knee at some point, would be ready to play. Glenn's conditioning is as much a concern as his knee.
Jason Garrett said the Cowboys would do their due diligence and have internal discussions about Glenn. Does Jerry plan to call Glenn?
"I'm going to keep that to myself," Jerry answered, not exactly making Glenn's return seem probable.

[zrinkill]

If that is truely the case........ what you see, maybe what we get.

Jerry can not be this dumb.if he goes into this season with only 2 real recievers ready, we are in trouble folks.it's just unreal Jerry is this stupid. O Well!

Jerry is learning. Don't overreact. There are 3 receivers out of your top 5 coming back in less than a month, Dallas will be fine.

This guy cries about us not getting Joe Horn and then has the nerve to call Jerry Jones dumb.

Defenses will double T.O. and Crayton will have to win One-On-One match-ups consistantly. :bang2:

Did Witten get hurt

Will Felix Jones be removed from the catching-the-ball-out-of-the-backfield equation

Defenses will double T.O. and Crayton will have to win One-On-One match-ups consistantly. :bang2:

With our new and improved run blocking and MB3 running the ball that will be the equalizer

Do our fans go on your board and pretend?

Go away or stop being a dishonest hunk of garbage.

Not only Crayton.. but Witten, Felix and the Barbarian may see 7 man fronts if they defenses do that. We are fine.

QB - Romo
RB - Barber
FB - Anderson
WR - TO
WR - Crayton
TE - Witten

4 probowlers. if we can't win with that, receiver depth may be the least of our problems.

Its funny cause during "the Owners Box" tonight with the great kristie scales Jerry said He didnt feel they needed to keep any more than 4 or 5 wr.

that says a ton about the rest of the guys trying to make this team.

We are in a pickle now.

well if Romo is as good as we think/hope he is, he'll make it work. I mean if Romo still can't get it done with a top 2 wr, a top 3 TE, and a solid running game than maybe he is'nt as good as we think. but I think he can handle it. If he can't for some crazy reason maybe our Defense can finally live up to expectations and take some pressure off of him. I'd rather start off slow and finish strong rather than the opposite like last year. I think we'll be just fine though.

Doesn't matter! You need as many weapons as humanly possible.

It's not that they can't win now, it is if they get one more injury at that spot.

 

[peppersquad]

I think its more "stubborness" more than anything with Jerry and Glenn now.


With that kinda quote from Garrett obviously he's open to it.

Exactly. So my next question would be, "Aren't Witten and Felix Jones receiving weapons?"
