DT Ken Bishop and LB Keith Smith Waived

[xwalker]

I'm pulling for a one tech.

It can't be a pure 1tech. That's probably the reason that Bishop was cut (because he's not a pass rusher). Marinelli wants another guy like T. McClain that is a 1/3 tech combo.

I would give up a 7th for Suh if Miami will pay most of his contract.

A WR is definitely on the way. Butler will probably be out through the bye week. Street has a sore ankle.

No Bishop Nooooooooooo not my pet cat.

I was in Norman, OK. Saturday to watch the Sooners...lifelong fan. Good luck against Oklahoma State!

According to ESPN, the Cowboys had a one week roster exemption available for both Hardy and McClain; but would have to cut players for them to play them Sunday. So it looks like both will be on the field right away.

Also heard the team is "looking around at running back" with Dunbar's injury. Not exactly votes of confidence for Randle, McFadden, and Michael.

Butler tweeted after the game he was ok.

A 4th running back who won't be game day active. Waste of a spot.

A.J. Jenkins, get your final chance!

But that kid really flashed! Looked like a man out there. He is huge! I liked his passion as well. He had limited snaps but was a force almost every time he was in there.

Yep, he was pretty much like the review I posted before the game.

As I said in my review, he is the most extreme opposite from Coleman that you could possibly find. Coleman was short with very short arms. Irving is 6'7-1/2" with super long arms. His wingspan is 87-3/4". For comparison Tyron's is 85".

Agreed. Just like keeping both Matt Cassel and Kellen Moore.

Yeah we will see. Let's see what happens at practice this week. That hamstring seemed to grab pretty good on him. That doesn't just go away in a day or 2.

 

[batman36]

Maybe Reggie Wayne is going to be a consideration.

Gee, Malcom Brown would look pretty good for us in the middle about now ! Sigh...

I hate to do this but his body type and movement skill reminds me of Lett. If he's even half the player Leon was I will be happy.

Same here, not shocked by Smith but stunned they cut Bishop when they could just IR Dunbar or move the PS QB back to the PS.

But we had to go with the broad jump champ!!

 

[Kaiser]

Bishop was cut because the Cowboys are preparing to sign 18 year old, 7 Feet Tall, 440 pound John Krahn out of High School as the first kid to skip college:

(Yes,I am kidding)

I will say, I like Jones and think he has a place on this team. But it reminded me of the Steven Jackson fiasco - just outsmarted themselves. Then did the same thing this year, when brown fell to us. And can the "we don't value the 1-tech position" bull----.Don't want to hear that crap anymore.

Ken Bishop AND Davon Coleman in the span of two weeks. Rebuilding mode, clearly, based on some of the prior assessments of these two.

 

[Pessimist_cowboy]

Sign Phil Taylor as a 1 tech . We need another fat guy in the middle. Hayden does a good job but we struggle stopping the run when he isn't in there.

Ya by the fans. They both don't maintain gap discipline and provide nothing in pass rush.
