RELEASED Official Cowboy Cuts Discussion Thread

11 on the O-line? Wow!

It's probably temporary. McGovern can go on IR to return and Knight may as well.

 

[xwalker]

Yeah, I would rather have seen him go away entirely. I think they made a mistake last year keeping Ross over Jihad Ward. He's been better for the Colts.

Yes, it's a waste of 645K.

Ross was not active in the Rams game but was not on the Injury Report.

QB ...... Dak Prescott

OL ...... Joe Looney
OL ...... Connor McGovern
OL ...... Xavier Su'a-Filo
OL ...... Adam Redmond
OL ...... Brandon Knight

SAF ...... Xavier Woods
SAF ...... Jeff Heath
SAF ...... Donovan Wilson
SAF ...... Darian Thompson
SAF ...... Kavon Frazier

Lots of back up ol. Got Cody Wichman on IR too. I can believe they like these guys.

Like Redmond enough to trade Looney? A veteran starting C should be worth something.

But why 5 safeties, when we have so many players we actually like? Did Wilson's injury keep Frazier on the team. Hmmm, could be. I'd guess Frazier is the next man out when Quinn comes back.

 

[Teague31]

Good to know we can another bye week in week 3

 

[MaaS]

Hopefully we can sneak Olumba onto the practice squad - he looks like he can play.

 

[Risen Star]

Should have made the 53. Get Redmond and Knight off and Wilson and Olumba on.

He’s a lot closer to being a starter now than Hill will be even next season. Juan’s gonna be a stud and Hill’s a dude with bad hair at this point. That ****’s gotta go.

My point is people act like hes better than Woods already. Gthoh

Dolphins get two 1sts and a 2nd rounder pick for Stills and Tunsil and a 4th rounder. I can see why the Dolphins made the trade.

The Texans picks will likely be early to mid round.

Giving back a 4th offsets the 2nd from early/mid 2nd to late 2nd.

Stills has no real trade value because his contract is not cheap relative to his production.

Therefore, it all adds up to:

Tunsil for an early/mid 1st and the equivalent of a mid/late 2nd.

Tunsil is going into his 4th season. The Texans just get him on a reasonable contract for 2 years.

I still think the colts win that division. Jax in second place and Houston and Tenn battle it out for last. I think Brissett is pretty good.

Brissett is trash. The Colts will be 4-12 at very best. Foles isn't good outside of Philly and that roster has issues. The Jags will also be 4-12ish. Houston and Tennessee will "battle" it out for first, even though I think Tennessee is also terrible and their QB stinks, they have a great secondary and two great offensive tackles around an otherwise mediocre roster which will be good enough for around 6-10 and second place.

Probably. But they may be risking losing some guys they hope to bring back.

I still don’t understand Redmond over a guy like Wise or Wilson.

He’s a C. They have Looney. Do they think Redmond is better than Looney and Looney is an OG?

Is Martin more hurt than they are letting on?

Redmond has the almighty position flex. I swear this team sometimes covets that over talent

The DC site now has the correct 53 active after correcting a couple of entries.

They’re risking some of these guys hoping they can re-sign one or two after guys get moved to IR.

They’ll likely get burned.

They want to trade an OL, I think.

Thompson is a FS and Frazier is Strong Safety. With Wilson injured I guess they wanted to have backups for both spots. Does Heath have an injury issue also?

We'll find out tomorrow.

 

[Gaede]

Have you been on Mars?

UDFA OL Brandon Knight, a pet cat of Bryan Broaddus. Started practicing at OT then moved to OG. Missed some practices with a foot injury.

I haven't followed the preseason/training camp at all, except to talk about Zeke

I don't think they're as enamored with Wise as fans were.

WR Wilson was the biggest surprise, IMO.

They seem to think there is a trade market for an OL (probably Su'a-Filo or Redmond).

I guess it's possible they would consider trading Looney for a premium pick (3rd round).

 

[xwalker]

Is Olumba fast enough to play CB in the NFL against starting WRs?

He got smoked on the one deep attempt that I recall against him but the QB missed the throw, IIRC.
