Twitter: La'el Collins leaves practice with medical staff

[gimmesix]

Didn't Hurts have a really bad stomach bug. Made him miss their last preseason game. So strange

Are you saying what I think you are saying?

Philly gave our players a stomach bug!

 

[stilltheguru]

Yep, it is their strategy to have a guy go out with an injury so Dak and McCarthy have an excuse. What a ****tard.

You ok? Go hug your mother

 

[HungryLion]

Whatever. You want to jump off the bridge, by all means jump off the bridge. Your choice.

Lol. Classic coming from guy who immediately pisses and moans every time he sees a post that he perceives as negative

 

[lqmac1]

Seems like something is always bothering this guy

I mean it kind of makes sense when you think about how big these dudes are and how much physical contact their body goes through.

 

[charron]

Just wish ball was healthy enough to get some snaps.

What team in the NFL has starting-level OLine players that they are willing to trade? It just doesn’t happen because there are nowhere near enough even decent OLine players in the NFL.

Depth - deal Jaylon Smith

rumor i read had a possible scenario that Raiders trade a 2nd and an OL named parker i believe for JS..they need a LB and like DC players )

Not happening .

What bothers me most about Collins potentially missing time is that the team apparently feels that Steele is the best backup option.

They are blind to his awful play, same as a few others.

If Collins can't go, the best option is Martin, and Knight is the second.

Steele is a terrible player at this point, and he looks better than the 35 year old somehow.

The obvious holes on the roster this time of year typically come back to bite them during the season, but....they don't fix them until the next offseason.

Ahead of nothing.....always.

Secret sauce.

I didn’t know he was ruled out for the 1st game.

Me either, hence the use of the word "potentially."

Id rather be friends, can't we do that?

 

[Dak_Attack_09]

Issac Alacron can play OG & OT.

Sure as long as you stop being overly dramatic. Some people will believe you.

Alright. I'm in.

I have been a bit moody lately considering the time of year.

Think it's out of my system.

We have some games to win coming up.....

I heard an interesting quote during the Cowboys Break show I listened to today (great while you're doing yard work!).

They mentioned that the team apparently really sees something in Steele that a lot of us don't. I'm paraphrasing but it was said to the effect that 'the team feels that Steele will be a quality starting offensive tackle in the league within the next two years'. I found that really surprising to say the least. I certainly haven't seen what the team apparently does. But then again, I couldn't see it in Chaz Green either, so what do I know?

 

[Creeper]

I do not like this news at all. He has a neck stinger supposedly, and McCarthy says it doesn't sound like it is that serious. But then I read he had some neck pain last week too. No word on x-rays or MRIs. I get the feeling we will hear more about this in a few days.

 

[panchucko]

Reminder that Collins walked off with medical staff a couple weeks ago and came back a day later. Relax.

so you’re saying Jaylon could take him

If they saw that, why sign a 35 year old swing tackle?

I see very little athleticism from Steele, but hey....I'm just a dude behind a keyboard lol.

Jerry and crew got this.

I mean, the soft spot that someone has for Steele was quite obvious exactly a year ago, when he seemed to usurp people on the depth chart rather quickly considering the lack of preseason, when Knight or Martin was a much more obvious choice.

Trust me, I'd love to see a local UDFA nail down a big spot on the team, but I don't see it.

 

[CowboyFrog]

Issac Alacron can play OG & OT.

Going off his pre season...he has trouble with assignments..when he is engaged he seems fine but man he has alot of "ooh was that my guy" moments...I would be sweating watching him play tackle in a real game. Again he could turn out good if he stops the assignment problems...My opinion of course.

 

[erod]

This guy can't finish a practice anymore.

Gotta feeling he won't play much this year.

 

[glimmerman]

It’s ok if he walked off. No limp or holding a arm or shoulder. As far as I am concerned cya Thursday the 10th. We are going to have injuries. We were spoiled having the best O-Line for a while. Need to start drafting in high rounds again.
