Didn't see this coming.

 

[ShiningStar]

*throws down my paper* there goes my fantasy team!!!!!!!!!

 

[Zordon]

a lot of weird things happening in these first few days/weeks.

 

[Fletch]

Cowboys brass looking smarter by the day for stocking up on LBers.

 

[StarBoyz83]

Weird

 

[links18]

Who's on first?

 

[Galian Beast]

Didn't think he was going to make the team anyways.

Surprised we signed him more than I'm surprised by this.

 

[Stash]

Makes me wonder why they cut Dekoda Watson? I thought he could be a factor.

This signing made zero sense to me. Finished is finished.

 

[big dog cowboy]

Not sure he had a big chance to make the final 53 and don't consider this a big loss.

 

[Garrettop]

Swaim is going to start in the middle.

Agree.

Broaddus said Rivers looked really good in OTAs.

 

[slick325]

Surprising news...as others have said, glad the FO made the decision to stock up on LB's. Who gets that roster spot? Any word on that yet?

 

[Zimmy Lives]

Maybe he is just trying to get out of doing camp stuff.

 

[LowTech]

Keith Who?

They're only going to keep 6-7 linebackers.

He was never going to factor.

1. Sean Lee
2. Rolando McClain
3. Anthony Hitchens
4. Jasper Brinkley
5. Damien Wilson
6. Mark Nzeocha
7. Andrew Gachkar.

With McClain being suspended there was a small possibility another linebacker could make the team along the lines of Kyle Wilber.

And these two will? One is an undersized special teamer and the other is a project who runs fast.

Where's the strongside candidates from that list?

Nzeocha on PUP now, and good chance will go on IR anyway. I had him as a PS at best. But now, who knows.
