Does the Randy G. suspension change us from signing Greg Hardy?

Why would we draft a Strong side defensive end at 4? We already have Tank on the strong side.

I think Lawrence would be more effective at right end. We flipped him to left end because of the Hardy signing and drafting Gregory.

Gregory did nothing this past season so his situation won't change anything with Hardy. Hardy is gone and Gregory may not be far behind.

Hardy isn't gone yet and there are absolutely ZERO reasons to cut Gregory.

His under contract for 3 very cheap years. If anything you siphon out every last bit of talent out of him and then you let him go. Throwing away a talent as a punishment just makes you feel better for a minute, then you see NE pick him up and that "Oh Crap" feeling washes over your body.

But is he gone?

I'm not convinced.

In January Jeremy Mincey was interviewed and said tension in the locker room grew with Hardy. If that's true it would be pretty risky bringing him back. Hardy's going to want some guaranteed money and isn't going to want to play under a one year deal again. He did very little the final 8 games only producing 2 sacks. Having to worry about locker room and off the field issues with him and drug issues with Gregory you could run into serious problems during the 2016 season if both get into trouble. The draft will determine a lot especially if the Cowboys take Bosa.

Gregory had a bad injury that affected how whole season. This season will be his first season. Shouldn't be thinking about cutting him at all yet. Dlaw has only had like 5 good games in 2 seasons also.

The injury affected his season but missing the first 4 games of the 2016 season isn't going to help his development. He assured the team the drugs were behind him so it's obvious he has a serious drug issue that's going to require rehab. Don't see how he can be depended on because we probably haven't seen his last failed drug test this is the 4th time he's failed a drug test.

Maybe but still doesn't qualify to take a left defensive end at 4. Same as you wouldn't take a right tackle at 4.

Lol you guys are funny when mad. So now we must draft Bosa at 4 because Gregory will miss 4 games.

That we must take a QB at 4 mentality really washed away over night huh :rolleyes:

Everyone will be back to thinking logically by Monday... I hope.

Despite Gregory's injury he didn't show much last season and the Cowboys need to improve their pass rush. Even if Gregory were to get clean and become a player we need all the pass rushers we can get.

I don't follow college football very closely wasn't aware Boza tested positive for pot. Knowing that I would steer clear of him. Many on the board have been screaming for Boza since the season ended.

He was suspended the start of 2015 season for weed and academic reasons. Most likely because he was partying instead of going to class.

Just read about it with Gregory's drug issues that will probably keep the Cowboys away from Boza. They can't take the risk of drafting a player that high who's tested positive for pot.

Ladies and Gents did Randy Gregory do to Noah Spence what Michael Irvin did to Randy Moss and make us afraid to draft him

Surprised Bosa's positive drug test and suspension hasn't affected his draft stock because every mock I've seen has him going in the top 5.
