If I remember correctly, weren't there people recommending the Cowboys give up their 1st and 3rd round picks for this guy?

Crazy!

I'm sure those people are the same ones that, in hindsight, rip Jerry Jones for anything that doesn't work out.

Wow a coach pissed at a guy dropping down to 313 pounds.

Hope this guy dose not have any serious issues... it's amazing how many airchair GM's wanted us to get Jared Gaither at all cost.

See my sig pic

Jerry knows what he's doing

Weird that he would drop weight without the consent or even knowledge of the coaching staff. Guess he thought he was as good as gone.

or maybe his ailment has something to do with the loss of weight. I wanted Gaither if we could have gotten him for a second. I wanted him over Barron. But looks like I was wrong on that.

Oh you mean the LT we simply COULD NOT LIVE WITHOUT according a few here is having some more issues?

Funny how things like this seemed to keep this 'can't miss, can't be lived without' LT from being traded for by any of the other teams.


So glad we didn't go after this guy and waste picks or money on a guy who is having trouble, although I hope he's not having any serious issues.
