Twitter: Jason Peters visiting the Cowboys

[Cowboysheelsreds053]

He graded out very well last year. He's not in his prime form, but he's still better than anyone else we have on the active roster. He gives the offense a chance. If we start the season with the rookie at LT and McGovern at G, Daks not going to make it to Tyrons return.

Have you watched film on him? Every Dallas reporters (Mosher, Broaddus) etc are saying positive things and he would be a massive upgrade

Good post. I can see him playing well with Tyler Smith, especially if T. Smith goes to guard.

I like it. He looks so much better than Ball.

I’m originally from the Philly area, my family are die hard eagles fans so I’ve watched almost as much eagles as cowboy games. The guy is a wash, he’s lost it plus injury prone now

He was solid as a Bear just recently

When is Peters coming in for a visit?

 

[td4mvp2k]

to old and just like jerry to look for the simple fix

No way. Peters is the LT if they sign him. Tyler has played G throughout TC and the preseason. No way they go with him now at LT if Peters is on the roster.

It could depend on how both Smith and McGovern play in the opener, which will be a good test for them considering the quality of Tampa's defense. There's no way if we sign Peters that he's going to start in that first game. That's asking too much no matter how good of shape the 40-year-old has stayed in. If the left side fares well against the Bucs, then Peters would just remain vet insurance until we need to cash it in.

I have no problem with that. Peters is a one-year rental. We need to find out if we have the long-term solution or if that has to be the first-round pick priority next year.

So we'll have a Hooker and a Peters.

I'm wondering why him over Whitworth? If we're going old.

Whitworth retired while still under contract to the Rams, so they hold his rights and would likely want some kind of compensation.

 

[Stash]

My guess is that they envision him more as insurance for Tyler and see him more as a backup.

Agree to disagree.

I want to know what Nate Newton thinks!! He will tell it like it is!!

Hate when people ignore film to go with their memory smh. Watch the most recent tape and stop relying on your memory of games years ago to tell you who someone is.

Is this how most fans think?

Exactly. Law posted and I posted the tweet off all 800+ snaps last season

Confirmation bias.

Ball for RT Smith would be LT

That he will!

i think we have to assume smith will be playing at guard if a signing happens (but could be wrong...), would rather not move him around a bunch mid season and rather have someone running with the 2's ready at the poistion

Waletzko isn’t ready and neither is Ball

Thank You.

Waletzko isn’t ready and neither is Ball

i agree, hence why i think we need to bring in another guy....were so ridiculously thin on depth its going to be bad should anyone go down.

If you lose 2 starting LTs most teams do not have the luxury of a 3rd like Tyler smith
