Could the conditions in camp this season, require similar defensive line signings that last season did?
...As often happens at about this time in camp, the injury list is starting to swell in earnest. Added to the rolls today were Mo Claiborne (knee) and Sterling Moore (tender groin), which, with Brandon Carr still out due to his mother's passing, made the starting CB trio Orlando Scandrick, Terrance Mitchell and B.W. Webb. Not a group to strike fear into the hearts of opposing receivers. And in addition, they were missing UDFA OG Brian Clarke (pity; just as he was starting to play better) and FB J.C. Copeland (who wasn't) and lost Ben Bass (yep, hamstring), Darrion Weems (elbow) and Dwayne Harris (ankle) during practice, in the aforementioned one-on-one WR-CB session.
With Bass, Ben Gardner, DeMarcus Lawrence, Anthony Spencer and Terrell McClain out, the defensive line is getting rather, shall we say, thin. As they did at about this juncture last year, the Cowboys might well need to contact a couple of available players and get some able bodies into the D-line meeting room. That call last year, you may recall, brought in Landon Cohen and George Selvie. If the Cowboys were able to hit at the same percentage were they to make a similar call this year, I think we'd all be ecstatic. Until then, we spend the off day praying to the football gods to cease this curse they have visited on Dallas big men in recent years.
