Twitter: McGovern has injury setback

[Pessimist_cowboy]

Bust!

 

[quickccc]

XSF made the team, injuries notwithstanding. Redmond is the winner for the spot.

Of course, pending possible trades . . .

we could use an extra OT, .. with Smith's back, and fleming always so-so and the only reserve OT . ....

He didnt this is just an excuse to stash him on IR

"He's day2day"...JG

That's what I thought.

I didn't expect this guy to play this year anyways. I am not sure why you draft a guard when 4 out of 5 players on your OL were drafted in the first or second round

Because it all starts at the offensive line with this team, so we roll deep.

I have no problem with them doing that.

 

[Pass2Run]

I am going to need a translator here. Can anyone help?

Basically, he's saying, as a fan, Cowboys personnel scouts and management can give it too him all they want and he will take it. Because he will so loyally take it, he will never express his discontent over social media platforms.

Except for McGovern.

He doesn't like McGovern.

 

[Hennessy_King]

This sucks. I was looking forward to seeing this guy. Not that I expected him to start immediately, but I was at least hoping to see the potential.

I think he could of won the job at LG

Because you let Collins walk, kick Williams to tackle and plug this kid in.

Overthinking it

We drafted a backup guard who won't see any playing time and have to move other players to other positions in order for him to see the field.

You want a backup tackle to replace Collins? Draft a tackle

There really isn't another OL on the roster I'd want to keep. They have a really good group of 9. Now 8 without McGovern.

Fair enough. I mean I wouldn’t like to see them use a spot in Redmond either honestly.

Maybe they go with just 8 and save the roster spot to go longer at another position?

I’m a Penn State guy. So having to wait a year to see him play sucks in that regard. I also think he will be better than XSF the moment he steps onto the field.

He will be the LOG when Williams slides out to ROT when Collins leaves next year.

Considering the long history the Cowboys have of moving their OL around to fill holes and play their best positions.....

 

[CowboyRoy]

What? What is your deal with lashing out at players who get injured?

who says I am lashing out at a player? Seems like your the one lashing out.

Naw never said I was right, please take this blunt, inhale and calm down. Not here to start a fight Gangs Of America. I'm just saying for the record I am a very positive guy, I'm a Corporate Thug to quote Jay Z. I always go along with every decision management makes until it affects my check and Cowboys management does not affect my check so I go along with them. I don't express any displeasures in our personnel or picks on any social media. That one guy just has never sat right with me.

Eventually you have to stop using first and second rounders on the offensive line and use those for skill positions. I think Williams is a natural tackle and McGovern could be a great guard. I'll wait and see instead of claiming he'll never play.

 

[SportsGuru80]

Put him on the shelf unfortunately SMH...

 

[coult44]

Yeah he was the rookie I was most looking forward to see.

But this was before I realized what an amazing talent Tony Pollard is.

Perhaps you can switch your affection to D-Will.

It’s gangs of New York btw

 

[lostar2009]

He may be the guy we bring back from IR this year - particularly if we lose some depth along the line.

Nah this guy is too far behind. It's best to toss him in the closet for next year.

It’s hard to know about a rookie, but I was hoping to see that kind of ability.
