Jacob Rogers

[neosapien23]

How would you guys feel if BP gave Jacob Rogers another shot. He is extremely talented but has had injury concerns. If the Cowboys keep him into training camp, maybe he can beat out Pettiti. If he doesn't then maybe he could make a good backup if he beats out Colombo and Tucker. Worse case scenario we cut him in preseason in the final cuts if he still sucks. I don't want to give up on him and have him turn out to be another Jimmy Smith.

I guess a better question would be do you guys think BP will give Rogers another shot?

I'm actually for it -- but I think that bridge is burned and that he's done here. Though he might develop later (doubtful), I think BP wants to make a clear point.

I have visions of him sustaining an "injury" during the course of the season right when we need him. I don't trust the guy. So far he's shown nothing of an NFL linemen's mentality or of a NFL player for that matter. He has no nads man, no nads. I agree with abersonc....he's disappointed everyone. All the way to the top.

I think giving Rogers another shot wouldn't be out of the question.

The real question is, does Rogers still have a strong desire to prove he can play in this league and would he want to prove it with this team?

I believe Parcells would give him every opportunity so long as Rogers shows him he has the dedication and drive to work hard during the off-season. Parcells has a lot to gain if Rogers "shows up" and becomes the "player" he thought he drafted.

He is soft! I know several people who have gone to the same re-hab facilty in Dallas that he is or was going to and they cannot believe what a pansy he is.

I am all for givin Rogers another shot. Maybe with a little luck his injury probs are finally over. If he can stay healthy he can be a very good OL. I think the only thing that will hold him back is his injuries. To bad.

Just curious. What did they say about him?

 

[CactusCowboy]

It was not positive at all. I will not repeat all that was said as two of these people are relatives. Take it for what it's worth............

I take it that your relatives work there. Would be a good reason not to repeat what they said.

 

[Snaggletooth]

I'd rather give Jose Cortez another shot.

I think Rogers burned his bridges in Dallas

Its true. It just seems like a shame to give up on a 2nd round pick. I guess I'm still in denial about Rogers being a bust. Seems like a waste of talent.

yeah, it sucks big-time, but time to move on, a deep and very rich class for OTs in the draft this year, we won't regret the Jacob Roger's fiasco for too long IMO

Assumming Parcells takes a tackle. Don't be surpised if McNeil is there and he trades down and takes Manny Lawson the Ware Clone instead. BP had a history of going defense heavy in the draft despite offensive needs.

deep class for OTs, there will be a good one in the 2nd

Not if Houston, Green Bay, and Detroit take the last ones in the 2nd.

and if they don't? the possibility for either scenario is large

True but I'm going to be sweatin bullets until we get a tackle. Its 50/50.
