Montee Ball!

It was rumored a couple weeks ago that he could be cut, while that may be true...I believe there is a real chance he could be third string in Denver and Juwan Thompson showed he is at least worthy of a roster spot last season averaging 5YPC.

It's funny to think that a few months ago there was a thought that we went overboard on the number of linebacker additions. Now we're looking for ore depth. These situations can change that quickly.

That's why fans are fans. They have no clue. The Cowboys are smart and have been acquiring players no matter the position if they think the guy is better than what they already have.

Cinn, they have several RB including a rookie Terrell Watson 6'02" 240 and runs a 4.51 would not mind a load like that behind this OL

This is my thinking as well. I am fine with Randle starting and a combo of dmc and Dunbar serving as 3rd down backs, but late in the game when we need to kill time, I want a big bruiser like Watson or wilder.

I think the Cowboys will roll with players already on the roster, including RB unless they decide to carry 4 RBs.

They could look at a returner if Whitehead has more fumbles.

The better carry 4 rb's with that group of guys. You can't trust Randle or DMF.

this is the part of the season i never look forward to. A lot of mens are released, a lot of hearts broken, a lot of dreams end and all that work. I do not think we give much thought to the end of dreams for many of these mens but we should.
What is that cliche? I hope they catch on with other teams.

I thought it was "I hope they catch something."

We're a few weeks away from final cuts. Are there any specific (bubble) players on another team you guys are paying close attention to?

I just caught the end of cincy's game and their rookie rb, Terrell Watson definitely got my attention. Big guy from D2, seems to posses some athleticism and considering our backs are built like 3rd down backs, he could be our change of pace guy.

Who will you guys be watching?

Pretty sure Randle can play 1st or 2nd down.

I was surprised we didnt sign a single rookie free agent RB. Not one.

I am assuming your statement is rhetorical in nature?

Why would they sign a single rookie FA RB when you considering the Cowboys are already bursting at the seams with a dizzying array of top-end proven NFL RB talent?

I was really surprised we did not sign Watson, he was the one RB I was hoping for after the draft.

Actually the Cowboys, Bengals, Falcons, Ravens and Texans were all heavy players to get Terrell Watson signed as a UDFA. I'm sure he's still on the Cowboys radar. Funny thing is Terrell is from Oxnard where the Cowboys hold training camp. The reason Terrell went with the Bengals was they flew him out during the pre draft process. Most Bengal fans and followers have given Terrell very little chance to make the active roster and expect the team to waive him and try to sign him the practice squad. Probably a good chance that he gets swiped up by another team, if that happens.

I heard there was a heavy contingent of scouts from other teams watching the game (maybe with Terrell as a primary target). There was a lot of mystery about Terrell coming out of college dominating division 2 opponents and whether it would translate to the NFL. His performance the other night obviously opened some eyes. It was reported that he got a lot more reps at Bengals practice today. So maybe they are reconsidering him for the active roster. I'm not sure.

Terrell info a lot of people don't know-
He led the state of California in rushing, his senior year in high school.
He led the nation in rushing his senior year in college (all levels of collegiate ball).
He won the MVP at the NFLPA all star game.

He literally has excelled at every level he's ever played.

I'm obviously a fan of his, but his talent is real.

Nice bit of info and welcome to the board!

Yea, he definitely upped his stock the other night. Maybe they're going to showcase him in PS for a possible trade. And if he ends up on their active roster, maybe Wilder will get cut. He's anot her big back that intrigues me.
