A lot of rumors floating around Ashlie Lelie (Not necessarily to Dallas). I am just throwing out a name.

its the positon he plays isnt it? not really slick, just the truth

David

He's also played the right side. Are you prepared to say he is one of the top ten right defensive ends as well?

This is like saying Keyshawn Johnson was one of the top ten flankers, when you knew good and well he wasn't even close to being a top ten wide receiver in general.

really, like who would have been more worthy?

Takeo Spikes and Keith Brooking both have Pro Bowls to their credit, which Ellis doesn't.

Brooking is the name that stands out to me the most on the list after Moss. Seems like a perfect Parcells LB. Of course Parcells wasn't here at the time.

Countdown to pro-bowl discrediting...in 3....2....1.....

I know, because that's what I would say. :)

Or maybe not, because it would be hard to make a case against those guys deserving to go - cept maybe Brooking. He doesn't WOW me. Of course, neither does Ellis.

How bout eggs?

I think he would have fit in as a middle linebacker for us back then. If you remember, we had Godfrey and Coakley flanking Fred Strickland.

I think Brooking is a superior player. Discredit the Pro Bowl all you want.

People this news is fake as anna nicole breast.

All this is: Some fan that's mad and want to start stiring up a rumor he lied about hearing on Sirius radio and it's going to be more people that didn't even hear anything stepping up saying yeah I heard it. Basically, this is a rumor that somebody is setting up which is the person who made the thread.

Cowboys isn't trading Greg Ellis off.

I was making a prediction, not outlining a course of action for myself. There are certain stock replies, which you began to be accustomed to. One is;

"Oh, so pro-bowls mean everything to you?:rolleyes: OMGZ LOLOLERZ!!1!1eleventy one1!!!!"

And so, I was predicting. Call me Ms. NostraCleo. Just make sure you call me.

It's pretty tough to argue pro-bowl selections for positions like LB.

On eggs.

Consider your mind blown.

my mind was blown when i tried to figure out one day if you got stabbed 1 time w/a fork if you suffered multiple stab wounds.

then again, push far enough it's just a gash...

now i've got this "why don't eggs taste like chicken" irony in my head and M*A*S*H is still 35 minutes away.

King Triton is a bad, bad man....

So is Aquaman.

Actually, Aquaman is pretty lame.

I write for the Dallas Morning News. AND get paid.

How

Sweet

Is

That?

I am telling yall what I heard with own ears on Sirius today.....You think you know it, like what you say is definite. Why in the hell do the Cowboys want to have Elliss on the sidelines after this?

no, he isnt...can you name 10 4-3 LDE's better than him?

If you think you can please do so, we all need some amusement..

the guy is one of the better all around DE's in football but because he was drafted here, by Jones and instead of that loser team cancer Moss, everyone throws Ellis under the bus

its pretty stupid IMO...the guys been a great player for us for years...and he's been an INCREDIBLE bargain when you look at his production vs his cap charges...

David

It's tough to name 10 but I can name a few LDE's that are better. Keep in mind that I like Greg Ellis too.

Here we go:

Strahan NYG
J. Peppers CAR
J. Kearse PHI
S. Ellis NYJ
Ogunleye CHI
B. Young SF (former pro bowler is really a DT in 4-3 but listed as LDE in 49ers 3-4 scheme)
L. Little STL
J. Abraham ATL (on nfl.com depth chart he is listed as their LDE)
K.Carter MIA (stats wise he is a better player)
W. Smith NO (younger than G. Ellis and putting up G. Ellis numbers in his 1st two years despite shared time with D. Howard)


That's nine. An argument can be made against some. An argument can also be made that B. Fisher of SEA may be equivalent to G. Ellis.

That was my try at it, only accounting for LDE's.

sub mariner would kick aquamans butt. then again, neither of them really interested me and DC was just pretty lame for many years during the 80's when i collected them and firestorm was the best i could do. got a letter printed in issue 4 of the 2nd run. i rule. : )

Maybe because he doesn't fit as a DE in the 3-4 defense and why are you try to justify that all of this is not a lie if it is true?
