How many times did we hear about our 1st round draft pick? Hardly at all. He merely handled the line calls and the man opposite him with pure efficiency. I criticized the pick on draft day because I thought we could have snagged him later in the draft.

But I'm sure glad Travis wears the star. The man is crazy smart. And that man is a beast of an anchor in the middle of the line. LOVE. IT.

Did Cullen Jenkins and Shaun Rogers even dress tonight? I didn't hear their names called.

Pretty impressive and it might be one of the most stout and deep DLs up the middle that we will play. Funny thing is that the less you hear his name, the better the job he is doing.

Guy looks to be a beast so far. I'm hoping Waters plays next week, Romo might still be a little sore.

As one who questioned the pick I now gladly eat my dish of crow.

He played very well in a huge game with a national audience watching.

I noticed Jenkins when he pulled up skirt and ran off after faking being injured.

I think he saw big LA on our sideline and got scared we were gonna put him in. I don't think anyone is gonna just push Fred around, this guy is a smart football player and strong as a Ox.

The crow needs some seasoning but I have no problem admitting I was wrong. He looks like he's going to be very good for a long time. There was one bad snap & even the announcers said they couldn't say what went wrong there.

Looks like we have our center. I was wrong.

Both Frederick and Smith played very well tonight. Smith was stonewalling JPP all night. There's a huge difference with Frederick in the line-up. We just need a couple more solid young guys on that line and we'll have a solid o-line.

I still think they should have taken the No. 5 player at 18. And I still think they got too little for the trade on. But he looks like a player.
