before anybody goes there . NO!!

Kick the tires. Couldn't you stash him cheap and see if he can get healthy.

 

[YosemiteSam]

WOOOOOOOOOOOO SIGN HIM!!! :laugh2:

 

[Cowboy Junkie]

if healthy, he is better than what we have

 

[cowboys5]

Sign Him Noww We Need More Players From Losing Teams

 

[FLCowboyFan]

How come no matter who becomes available the answer is always........NO!!!!!!! Do we really think that teams are going to cut guys who aren't a bit risky to sign? I agree if we have the ability to let him get healthy, that he could be worth the risk.

 

[Cowboy Junkie]

he has WON playoff games ! thats more than I can say about any of the Oline in Dallas

 

[dougonthebench]

get him as a backup only.

No doubt!

Still think we need a win against Iowa to cement our spot, but I am liking our chances.

Go Blue. Always.

LOL, he's 6 months younger than Flo and a hell of a lot better over the years.

 

[Doomsday101]

before anybody goes there . NO!!

Few years ago yes, now no

 

[dallasfaniac]

Ok, so we sign him and then move Adams to G where he can hear and see the snap better? All in favor? Opposed?

 

[unionjack8]

in his day he ws better than Flo. The guy has had, just since 2007, a torn bicep, torn labrum, rotator cuff injury and missed 23 games over the last 3 seasons. Thsi team needs to get younger on the Oline, not older.

You're right, he does have a lot of wear and tear, and even if he didn't we aren't gonna change our starting lineup on the OL this season, unless of course due to injury. I seriously doubt Pace wants to be a backup. He'll probably just retire.

 

[Stash]

It would be a nice 'dream scenario' to have Pace line up at LT and move Flozell inside to guard....

 

[Manster54]

Sign him for the vet minimum and make him a wedge buster on special teams.

 

[dallasfaniac]

Can he play DT?

 

[Doomsday101]

Can he play DT?

Or FB?
