-Very hard to evaluate our offense when our backup QB cannot complete a simple pass. Many three and out drives where the entire offense cannot find any rhythm. Milton has talent, but he is more of a developmental #3 QB prospect at this juncture. Cowboys have almost no choice but to find a capable #2 backup as Grier isn't the answer either.
-Good OL play is all about cohesion and play together as one. It is difficult playing multiple young players as they suffer through growing pains learning the position. What is most important is to get their starters back healthy so they can build on that chemistry with on another. Both Smith/Steele are expect to become key performers in their rushing attack.
-WR cutdown is going to be difficult. Lamb/Pickens/Turpin/Tolbert/Mingo if healthy are locks. Best special teamer probably is Brooks if they keep a 6th WR, but they might not be possible this yr.
-Tough cutdown for the Defensive line forthcoming. Say they keep 5 Edge, 5 DT's: Parsons, Fowler, EZ, Kneeland that leaves just 1 spot for Sam Williams, James Houston, Payton Turner. I am keeping Houston out of that group and looking to deal Sam Williams. As for DT: Osa, Thomas, Mazi, Winfrey, Toia. This leaves no room for adding a much needed veteran. Think Mazi is safe cause of his contract. Would they risk losing Toia or Winfrey to waivers?
-Really like what I am seeing out of the linebacker group. This should be no surprise as Eberflus is a former LB positional coach. Hell, even Damone Clark looks good. Actually have good depth at the position.
-Nickel corner is another position that is going to be difficult to cut down: Either Hall or Childress makes the team not both. I like Childress better cause of his tackling abilities. Does Carson factor in here as well?
-What are they going to do at corner? Do they put Diggs/Revel/Butler on the short-term ir? Not sure of the rules, but don't think they can do it for all three. Outside of Bland/Elam, they have street level talent. Almost have to add a veteran here.
