I wonder if Wade will push for yet another pass rusher - OLB that is

Wade was awfully disappointed that Brandon Williams was a no-go last year. Wade seems to like fresh pass rushers in the game.

Right now it's Butler and Octavien as backups. Who knows if Brandon Williams will be ready?

Like the sun comes up, Parcells likes to draft TEs and Wade likes to draft OLBs.

Maybe a mid-round pick for us?
 
Don't forget Jerry strongly implied Greg Ellis coming back is a real possibility.

Not saying I want to see it happen, far from it, just saying I wouldn't be shocked if the Cowboys have that socked away in their back pocket as a cheap, one year possiblity depending on what happens in the draft and how far along Brandon Williams' knee looks in mini-camps.

You have any particular players in mind?

Yes, I think that's the fall back plan.

Not sure it's a great thing, but it gives some insurance in case B Williams needs more time to heal and we don't get anyone in the Draft.

Jason Worilds, Virginia Tech?

I remember Wade loves guys with an explosive first step, has said so. Given speed or strength, he goes with speed. Brandon Williams an example.

Maybe the above guy on Saturday if he lasts. His production has been up and down but he has shown the potential of getting to the QB anyway. Explosive.
 
Wade has said this year's draft is deep with good LBs. I would expect a LB to be drafted in the middle rounds/late rounds if someone is there that they like.
 
I think we'll add a MLB, so may be hard to pick up an OLB as well, especially since we got a couple last year.
