Twitter: Jerry praises LB Leighton Vander Esch

[Praxit]

....keeping him will probably depend on DQ, MM and Jones. Imo, LVE has been solid this year.

I was tweeting back and forth with Vandys momma and she was over the moon about it.

at a low cost I would keep him.

Nude.....That is hillarious

Get ready for a new contract LVE. Is Jerry drinking?

Has Jerry looked in the shower yet? That's when you know big money is coming.

 

[Cowboyny]

As I have said, he is more popular in their building then within the fanbase. Depending on price, he is a extension candidate. No not a star, but a quality role player for this team.

 

[JayFord]

why do yall think hes gonna sign here for big money

its jerry job to boost up players and praise them

LVE is getting a honest offer from Stephen or hes getting cut

thats it

 

[Bullflop]

LVE deserves more credit than he's been given by many here. He's been solid enough to be attractive to other teams, once he leaves.

 

[slick325]

LVE has played well over the course of recent weeks.

 

[blueblood70]

Don't pay him Jerry. Draft his replacement.

you mean like the all world LB #11 drafted as LB, cox drafted as a LB, 33 as LB..

11 becoming more of a OLB/DE , Cox MIA, has now left another need at LB. so LVE became counted on once again,

 

[buybuydandavis]

For some reason I see the guy who plays “Jack Reacher” on Amazon Prime when I see LVE.

A young Jack Reacher. Yeah. I totally see it too.

 

[buybuydandavis]

LVE has been better than I thought he would be but we should definitely be looking to get younger and better.

Oh, I think we are.

Good for Jerry to talk up LVE, though. Get a better comp pick that way. And it's *true*.

LVE has been good since the end of last year. He's not *everything* you want in a LB, but few LBers are.

PFF has him 18th/78. Top quartile. That's a good player.

 

[Cmac]

4yds in Tackles for Loss, for the season......tells me what my eyes see. LVE, JJ loves you.

 

[Doomsday101]

The fact he he gets 85 to 90% of the snaps on defense tells me the coaches trust LVE to do the job.

Somebody's bout to become a son-in-law!!!

Yes very true but, my thinking is if we want to stop the run, better have a stud MLB and at least 1 DT thats not a jag. - gotta be strong up the middle.

Dont forget thats why we drafted Parsons - since he's great at getting the QB, they gonna play him at DE.

So while LVE has had a decent season if this D wants to get to the next level, we gotta upgrade the middle of the D.

 

[rags747]

LVE has been quite fine this year.

 

[WoodysGirl]

Vander Esch is the new Jeff Heath. Fans hated Heath (myself included), but he lasted a good long while in the Cowboys org before being replaced. I guess it's something to be said for reliability...and health. LVE is healthy this year.

I think it's about getting that stout NT.
