Jordan Phillips the 3 tech?

[Risen Star]

New Cowboys DT Jordan Phillips said he’s familiar with Mike Zimmer’s defensive scheme because he has worked with some other coaches from Zimmer’s coaching tree. “It’s just like riding a bike.”

On why the Cowboys are a good scheme fit for him: “The (3-tech DT) comes off the ball and they get to make a lot of plays, and that’s what I like to do.”

Phillips has really never been a good run stopper

Means they still aren't done looking at DTs. Keep an eye on Linval Joseph.

 

[Risen Star]

So it's Osa, Phillips at the 3 and Mazi, Rogers at the 1 right now.

I mean I know Phillips had 9 sacks one season but that was years ago and has been a complete outlier in his career. He doesn't get the sacks a 3 tech needs to get.

Then again, neither does the starter. So there shouldn't be a drop off.

Yeah I'd say yeah he doesn't want to do camp that's all that is and Jerry isn't trading any more picks to do what he can do without using picks

They did move gholston and fehoko back to de so that helped and opened up more of a need for depth

Well there you have it. A 340 lb 3 tech.

I wondered why he started next to Rogers the other night.

What a monstrous DL when they're both in there.

Then why did he sign!? They told him they want MAZI to be the 1 that's all

Get him reps hell he looked decent

Zimmer and Jones alluded to adding more inside. This makes it clearer they’re looking for a 1T. If they can’t find a trade, Joseph as a FA is probably the fallback option.

Yeah he's a vet who doesn't want to do camp, will sign and will start on the PS or whatever then he'll be activated for games

Surprised Joseph hasn't been brought on already, would rather have him than these other guys they signed.

You just be grateful we still have pie left.

I think if they had interest in Joseph they would have at least brought him in for a workout.

In Saturday's game, we lined up Phillips and Huggins next to each other on early downs. Zimmer might want to put Phillips next to Mazi on early downs rather than having Osa out there. Could do essentially a three-man rotation with Phillips and Osa playing 3-tech and Mazi and Phillips playing 1-tech.
