Twitter: McClain inked by Falcons

[Rayman70]

If we can't even sign a career journeyman like McClain, what makes Hankins a sure thing?

he's not a sure thing. Not sayin that. What I am saying is we have a pretty big void to fill with Collins out for God only knows how long,plus we kinda need quality up front.

You can now insert Price is Right loser sound bite.

Apt. Considering that Brian Price is looking to be our 1T.

Scary thought considering Price is coming off a major injury. We need a top quality DT like Hankins to sign. At 26 years old,I would feel really good about the rotation if we got him. Collins would be just gravy when he came back.

Im gonna go shake my boy's hand who's a falcons fan. Be right back.

 

[Sydla]

Good.

Never understood the hype with McClain.

I prefer Hankins.

They have no interest in Hankins.

So where does that leave you now?

I do not believe they are taking the void that seriously.

McClain was an easy one. They knew him and thought they could rekindle the "glory" of the 2016 DL.

Might be time for some people to start liking what we have because that is about where things are right now.

Defensive tackle Terrell McClain is signing with @AtlantaFalcons, per source. One year deal worth over $4 million, includes $500,000 signing bonus.

If this is true. Players don’t want to play for us anymore. We haven’t been a serious contender in 25 years years and we have a joke of a coach.

 

[Pessimist_cowboy]

He must have missed that epic choke job in the Super Bowl versus New England a couple of season's ago, and last years early exit versus the Eagles.

Still a heck of a lot farther than us in the past 25?years

I just got over the Nick Hayden era too.

Oh well.

You know how this will likely end up. Around December this board will be lamenting how the DT spot derailed our season.

I do understand your point that the FO does not have any interest in Hankins.

However, he is the logical choice to fill the DT position.

 

[Irvin88_4life]

I’m not too concerned but I am interested in seeing what he signed for. If it’s just a moderate one year deal, Cowboys should’ve brought him in.

They did bring him in. He decided to sign with the falcons. Can't make a guy sign

clearly everyone is falling all over themselves to sign Hankins....

You can if you pay him.

I have little doubt Stephen low balled the **** out of him.

Super Bowl win or bust. Live by it, die by it. "America's Team."

Teams are going to run down our throat. Book it.

AT WHAT POINT will they take this seriously? Its been a decade between solid DT's. 2 and a half decades between having an elite DT like Leon Lett. We don't need mediocrity in the middle. GO SIGN HANKINS.

McClain was 7 the last time Dallas played in a Super Bowl. Hankins was 4.

Young players don't see the Cowboys as we want to see them.

 

[Pessimist_cowboy]

If the falcons and eagles both wanted McClain too that should tell you something. Hankins is JAG. He might be a slight upgrade over Price. Frankly there both well below good.

YUP...exactly. Business as usual for opposing offenses. Dive left,Dive right..and right up the belly of our D. Hankins would help fix it.
