I think Green starts the last couple of games, not right now. Next year I think he is a very good Swing Tackle with Collins playing RT.

I agree, play Green, see what he has.
What OL has not had issues at some point this year. Has any player not have had an issue this year. Yes, a few were from injuries from TC or early in the season. Like Matin's neck stinger.
Except a few rookie mistakes with Byron Jones. And that is not a knock, he is a rookie learning 4 positions. And has played them all very well.

Going forward...at some point soon. Does not mean next game for every player to play. A few at a time. Until mathematically eliminated on some too. Yes we are done, but the coaches will think until it's official, there is something to play for.

Green at RT.
The last game or 2, Kellen Moore at QB, or in 4th quarter of a few games before that. Heck, even try Showers the last game too. Still need to draft a future QB.
Get Butler some more playing time at WR, for depth.
Rod Smith at RB, for depth, need to draft a stub RB.
Whitehead on KO & PR from here on out. And more involved on offense.
Swaim, need to see him too. Hanna will be a FA.
Nzeocha and wilson at LB, play them over Wilber and Gachkar.
Russell on DL, and more of Irving.
No player really to put in at DB, unless they bring up Tim Scott from the PS.

can't make those changes all at once. But put them in here and there. Possibly all the last game of the season.

Nice analysis. Agree that we should start to utilize player in some of these games like preseason cutdown looks....

Green was never drafted to play this season. At best, maybe game day swing tackle. Let's see where he is in TC next summer. He should be squarely in the mix for starting RT by that time.

It was still a bad pick. We could have had a runningback that could have contributed and be a possible replacement for Murray. Instead what we got was a scrub like Randle wasting almost half the season being unproductive.

Has Green even gone through a full week of practice yet? I can't believe there's any chance he's an upgrade right now.

Russell hurt right now so he may not be active the rest of the season.

He started practicing two weeks ago and they have three weeks from that point to put him on the active roster or on the IR. I'll copy the link below, I've seen other blurbs that were positive about his play in practice. I think he starts the last 2 or 3 games of the season -

I've been watching the games, and by my count, Tyron Smith has already given up more sacks through 11 games this season than he did all of last season.

I believe somebody posted a graphic here last week that showed he was next to LaAdrian Waddle on the list of sacks allowed. Tyron Smith's name has no business appearing on the same list as LaAdrian Waddle.

Tyron hasn't been nearly as good as he was last season...

This is a no brainer and has been for awhile.

Luckily for Free he is good in the locker room and the coaches think that is more important than results.

Of course.. I don't think the Cowboys are in the results business anymore or we would have a top tier NFL coach.
