Stephen Jones on @gbagnation says Cowboys haven't heard anything new about Greg Hardy's suspension. Expect him to be out the first 4 games.

Stephen Jones: I wouldn't say we're set at RB. We like our 3 RBs a lot. "If we saw a young RB to add to the mix, we'd certainly look at it."

Garrett was just asked about level of concern about Rolando being away from the team for a month. Underrated storyline for this defense IMO.

lol. Let me try that again. Byron Jones was working at first team safety. Not @jonmachota. But Jon does have a pretty slick jump shot.

Every time Dez has lined up for a rep with Romo today, it has gone to him. They haven't had much work together this offseason.

JJ Wilcox is the only surprise player missing from practice today.

Rainer Sabin ‏@RainerSabinDMN 31m31 minutes ago
Sean Lee and Rolando McClain working alongside each other. That's the ideal pairing at linebacker for the Cowboys.

J.J. Wilcox isn't practicing today, so that's why he was running through the 1's with his woes.

Drew Davison ‏@drewdavison 29m29 minutes ago
J.J. Wilcox is not practicing today. First-round pick Byron Jones in his place.

Michael Linteau ‏@DrFritzBunwalla
@HelmanDC any concern if Dez has no actual game snaps this preseason?

David Helman ‏@HelmanDC 25m25 minutes ago Arlington, TX
If Dez hadn't practiced all month, I'd still have the utmost confidence he'd be ready for Week 1. So no.

Todd Archer ‏@toddarcher 23m23 minutes ago
JJ Wilcox is siting out today because of neck spasms. Going through conditioning on side.

Not a fan of moving an all pro to another position
To me Collins is the guy who will replace Leary when he's up and green or a player to be drafted later to be the future at rt

We had an all pro guard move out to tackle for a season and become all pro out there as well. It can happen. ;)

I do not care what Claiborne has to say right now. he is a draft bust in my opinion right now. I just hope that he can prove that he belongs in the nfl and play at a level that can help the team win. I do not expect him to be an allpro just a steady corner that does not get beat everytime the ball is thrown his way.

It can happen
But Larry Allen is an exception to most rules
The bigger issue is with tony the middle of the oline is much more important than the edge
He can beat an edge rusher most of the time. Very hard to beat that rush up the middle
Martin is one of the best guards in football and while he can play tackle I don't think he can be as good there as at guard
If injuries force something then you have to do what you have to do but the ideal situation this year is Collins watching a lot of football and playing only on the practice field. His time to shine will be when Leary is gone
But although he won't likely be the game day backup, if a guard is injured for a period of time he will be the replacement
