Some of you want to see rookie wide receiver Kevin Ogletree on the field with the struggles of the passing game. If Roy Williams can't play against Kansas City or if he's limited, then Ogletree said he's ready.

Ogletree made the team as an undrafted free agent after an impressive training camp, but he has been inactive so far because the Cowboys don't feel like they can take five wide receivers to the game.

"I don't think you can ever be sure," Ogletree said. "I don't think anyone is comfortable just bring thrown in out of nowhere. You know it's going to come around at some point. I think I'm doing a good job of staying ready and being able to go in and not miss a step."

I hope RW can play but it may be in Dallas best interest to have Ogletree active for the game just in case. RW may be feeling better but seeing the shot he took those ribs have to be pretty tender right now

Poor kid. I really like him. But if he gets in there Sunday and doesn't just light it up I shudder to think how quickly his 'fans' will turn on him.

We have a starting QB thats worth anything?

I thought we only had a short small handed guy.

Game? You're being generous. If he has a bad quarter, series, heck one bad play and they'll be turning on him.

I used Warner and Harrison as examples of players undrafted that are successful.Unlike our starting QB.

I'm assuming Ogletree did NOT practice with the starters today because if he did the media would be all over the story. So if he has not practiced, don't bet on the coaches playing him any, even if by chance he is activated for the game.

Being activated wouldn't boost him to starter status...

More than likely, it would be (1)Crayton, (2)Miles, (3)Hurd, and then (4)Ogletree.

It would be a good experience for him to experience game day action.

Crayton #1, Hurd #2, Ogletree #3, Austin at home tied up in the closet. Roy laying in his baby crib sucking a baba.

People talk about Romo regressing...yea when you have those two losers in the lineup making you look bad.

If he's active, anything can happen. The former 4th WR, was almost the hero in the Broncos game when he came in for an injured Roy Williams.

Never say never.
