News: Jason Peters and Dallas could have deal as early as Monday

[CWR]

If an OL was signed right after the injury. The same fans would then whine, why didn't Jerry wait for the cut downs instead.

If I went by this board alone, Id swear we were 1-16 and devoid of any talent. The level of cynicism here is off the chain lol.

I frankly don’t care anymore, he’s not playing week 1 he’s a depth signing at this point

time to get excited about the team we have

You don’t care about improving your team for a Super Bowl run?

The first game is all that matters?

 

[Rayman70]

peters will be suited ^ week 1 and play in case the SHTF.

 

[Captain43Crash]

Who cares...Lots of sports media sources expecting Dallas to fall off a cliff by mid-season and finish 6x11. Wholesale scrubbing and
rebuilding after this season.

Who cares what the media thinks!!!

 

[john van brocklin]

I've said it once and will say it again, this shouldn't be hard, at all. lol

Evidently it's very difficult, LOL
Unless they are sitting on an agreement and waiting for the NFL paperwork to be done before they announce it.

It’s the fact that a good solid veteran swing tackle wasn’t addressed. Nothing Waletzko, Ball or Smith have done says they’re ready to start day 1 at the most important position on the line. This is a decision that snowballed when it didn’t have to.

 

[Cowboys22]

Yea they’re cutting all-pro left tackles every day in this league

Who said they were? The team may have preferred a younger player with some experience who was cut for salary reasons or caught up in numbers game. They also may have been working the phones looking for a trade. Peters has been there all along and they knew he would still be there after cutdowns as a fall back plan.

Once Philly’s swing tackle broke his arm on Thursday, Jerry and Stephen SHOULD HAVE made this deal happen on Friday. If Philly sweeps in and signs Peters, NO ONE SHOULD BE SURPRISED!!!

We have cap space. In this particular situation it would have been smart to over pay( 3-5 million ) to get Peters. We have a glaring weakness at LT and a solid veteran available to step in. Last year the Rams won the Super Bowl with a 40 year old offensive tackle.

They have no cap space.

They also have Jack Driscoll who can backup both tackle spots

So 10m for one year, Tyler is at LG, and Zeke is wearing tights taking pictures with the Bus. Ok got it.

 

[DUO_CORE]

Will he lose his Social Security check if he signs now?

 

[cowboyec]

excellent signing.
the best f/a olineman we've added in years.

Give me a break, it's a 53 man team and were talking about 1 player that will help with depth and act as a bridge at a postiiton we just lost a stater at but have a 1st round pick...

bringing him in doesn't mean the superbowl, not brining him doesn't mean missing the playoffs.

MY Point again was stop magnifying the impact peters will have, and I'm sick of it being the constant focus here...excited for the season and tired if wasting energy on following this, that's all

 

[Toro9]

As much as I dislike hiring an Eagle, and one being 40 years old, it's a good move. I watched some of his film from last year with Chicago and though he might be slow, he's got technique and plenty of mass.

NO ONE should go based on this board alone. Skeptics, optimists, lunatics or critics......use your own head. But you gotta admit after 26 years this FO has exhausted their benefit of the doubt capital and now its put up or shut up time. Nothing wrong with pointing out the faults and errors made after the fact...very simple really, hindsight is 20/20. The cynicism is based on facts compiled from past history. We can all still just hope the blind pig finds an acorn eventually.

hope they get Peters from the one last year who played 15 games....He is a brute beast and knows all the tricks to minimize movement and get job done

 

[GORICO]

If peters signs cowboys will go from 7-10 to 8-9.

come on man lets hope for at least 10 wins this year.....if somehow O line finds a groove that works between run and pass
