Twitter: Jerry Jones talks replacing Trevon Diggs

[HungryLion]

Good thing they have Gillmore, Bland, and Lewis. They just need to have the backups ready for the next injury and hopefully that doesn't happen soon.

Getting Lewis back from
Injury is now HUGE. If he is back to his normal self pre injury.

What's Tom Cruise got to do with it?

One of the all-time great cornerbacks in the game. In fact, I think he's Risen's hero.

 

[Reverend Conehead]

True, there's no such thing as replacing a player of the caliber of Diggs. However, it is possible to find someone competent for the position and someone whom we can win with.

 

[Asklesko]

We're doomed.

I'd start talking to Carolina about Jaycee Horn. I think the narrative on him is that he's injury prone and they are probably near ready to make some changes at corner. The guy isn't Diggs obviously and I know the injury prone thing is going to be a turn off for people but hear me out, he's really good when healthy and he's just another guy that you know you can feel comfortable with when he's on the field. And if things do work out you've got a guy who's a more than capable starting corner once Gilmore is no longer with the team.

Yep, hogs taste better.

We use to butcher a hog and three turkeys every fall and put all but the lard and bacon in the freezer.

Right now, just throw in shrimp empenadas...

What's Cruise but a 2nd hand emotion.

I mean pretty well said by Jerry. I would’ve expected some kind of inane euphemism like “you don’t replace the prize hog at the county fair with a greased up tomcat”

That is one of the funniest responses I have ever seen on these boards. .

Lol

He's out for the next 4 games minimum with a
hamstring injury.

Well, you won the board for the month.

 

[Creeper]

I agree with Jerry. They are not going to find a replacement for Diggs somewhere else. They have to go with their depth. Losing 1 CB can be overcome. Losing 2, like they did last year make it a real problem. They really need Gilmore to step up his game now.

 

[Proof]

crazy that we have a recent first rounder as a backup who plays outside …

 

[Jarntt]

Bland is a solid player.

I think so too, but solid doesn't replace Diggs straight up...

 

[rambo2]

Nobody does, so what?

 

[G2]

The Cards are just the team we need to get our crap straight in the secondary. No reason to rush anyone back. I'd like to see Izzy get some tries.

 

[Jarntt]

Nobody does, so what?

So that’s what the problem is. is that hard to follow?

Gives him time to get adjusted to the team and the playbook. Plus he'll have the bye week I think ours is around week 7.

Yeah, surprisingly cogent.

2 and 0.
