McCarthy Intrigued By Waletzko's Position Flex

[Hardline]

FRISCO, Texas - The offseason is a time for change. Changing systems, play-callers, personnel, and more are very likely for NFL organizations through the summer months. However, Matt Waletzko has endured plenty of change with a side of improvement.

Every lineman that ends up being a hit is a big bonus. I'd love for him to be able to help on Sundays.

If this was his rookie year I might be intrigued.

One of my favorites. Someday he will be starting.

His development might be amongst the most important on the roster. If he can play we are 7 deep at OL and have the gameday roster apportionment. Without we have to scramble if a tackle goes down.

I'm more intrigued by his ability level. I don't care if he can play every position on the line as long as he can play one really, really well. I know that there are roster considerations, but it's not like we have five All-Pro linemen and just badly need someone who can back them all up.

I think Waletzko has the movement skills of an NFL starter, but strength is the question he'll have to answer before we know if he can compete to be a starter or even be a competent backup.

Who is your sixth? I'm not sure about anyone outside of the top five.

It pretty much is. He was playing with a bad shoulder last summer.

Last year he was injured and it was more of a red shirt season so in many respects I see this as his first real season.

If Waletzko turns out to be good it will really help the Cowboys a lot.

You know what? I want a guy that excels at one position and not someone who is only good enough at 2.

Sounds good pretender.

Well, let's gooo!

Position flex = backup

Nothing exciting here.

 

[Bullflop]

Waletzko will be obliged to stay healthy to win the LT backup spot. Hopefully, things go well for him. Is he strong enough? We'll see. Stay tuned.

Position flex. Cowboy speak for dude sucks all over.

Exactly. He is in his 2nd year and were just now talking about how great he rehabs. Not good.

But thats the point. Its his 2nd season.

It's great.

 

[CowboyRoy]

It's great.

Nothing better than a wasted rookie season and your 2nd season coming off rehab.
