Practice Squad Francis Bernard Waived

[Carson]

I don’t know who is hurt more. Lee or Gifford

 

[Pessimist_cowboy]

I’m sure they’ll sign someone else.

 

[AsthmaField]

Damn... oh well, I hope he makes it to the PS.

Lighten up, Francis ... fans

He'll probably be signed to the practice squad

 

[OmerV]

I’m sure they’ll sign someone else.

No reason they won’t or can’t if Lee and/or Gifford aren’t ready to go by game day. It’s a backup LB/special teams player, and there should be some to choose from when teams make cuts. On top of that, if Bernard ends up on the practice squad he can still be added to the roster any time he’s needed.

Luke And Sean Lee are always hurt. Very unreliable linebackers.

If Cowboys cut Bernard ... then that means simply tells me that he wasn't that impressive as we were made to believe he was ...

you dont gamble with that waiver- practice squad manuever. . Expect another NFL team to pick him up .

This is what I mean by Dumbo GM. You are counting on veterans on defense that have been either unreliable (suspended) or unavailable(injured) instead of playing young players to develop as starters. Then someone snatch them up from cut or practice squad.

This team will not sniff a NFC Championship game without a reliable, consistent, and play making defense.

Waiting to see what Cowboys have in mind as far as LB depth , and expect add-ons from waiver wire ... because our LB Depth absolutely SUCKS !!!

Could they be going heavy at CB/S (maybe Carr is getting signed) and DE? They could actually carry 6 DEs (when Gregory is back) - Gregory, Smith, Lawrence, Griffen, Anea and Armstrong?

Kind of surprising given the reports on how good he looked in camp.

 

[MarcusRock]

I see what's going on here. The kid makes Dak look bad by intercepting a ball and now he's no longer on the team. Maybe Dez missed a few snake callouts on his way to leaving the team.



I kid, I kid. (Maybe)

Gotta admit this is pretty sound logic from a typical GM perspective in team building.

Typically sound logic and Cowboys GM are indeed oxymorons, lol.

Go Cowboys

 

[cowboyec]

didnt see that coming.
i thought he was having a good camp...guess not.

 

[MarcusRock]

Damn.......this gonna shock a lot of posters. LOL.......some had him in the Pro Bowl.

Pro Bowl? Pffft. Try NFL all-bicentennial team when the NFL turns 200 in the year 2119. He'll be the only unanimous selection.

The anointed oil was out with some.

I'm fine with going with 2 linebackers if it means we can keep 10 cornerbacks.

 

[ErikWilliamsHeadSlap]

Are Lee and Gifford out for the start of the season?

Yeah Kathy and Frank.
