Queiro or Cowboys backed out

 

[cowboyschmps3]

I’m shocked. I thought for sure we’d lose Wilson or Wise at the least.

Mega glad!

 

[Cowboys22]

So maybe Guyton or Phillips will be added as a spot is now open.

Surprised we haven’t seen Justin Phillips’ name. Wouldn’t be surprised to see Luke Gifford IR’d today or tomorrow with Phillips signed back to the active roster. We know Gifford isn’t ready to play now and it would be uncharacteristic of this team to only have 5 healthy linebackers.

Looks like it’s Weber.

 

[cowboyec]

good...I like Weber.

sounds like Gifford will be ready sooner than expected.

Cole Hikutini
Strengths Above average size for a move tight end. Moves well in space. Able to bend linebackers and safeties out of position with certain routes. Good acceleration out of his turns to separate and present quarterback with easier throws. Good in short zones. Seam-buster with speed to attack over the top of linebackers and run under the deep ball. Plus ball skills. Can track it and adjust in space. Natural hands pluck it away from his frame. Has speed and athleticism to extend plays after the catch. Dangerous mismatch option near goal line. Wins the 50/50 throws. Positional blocker who gives just enough effort to occupy defender in space.

Bottom Line
Athletic move tight end prospect with natural hands and the quickness to create separation along his routes. He has NFL ball skills to win in competitive catch situations and he will be a challenge for linebackers to cover in space. Hikutini lacks NFL toughness as a blocker which could put a ceiling on his draft value. He will have to prove he can play special teams as he waits for his turn as a pass-catching option.

Don't tell me they don't add Phillips. The guy balled out.

 

[Altestic]

I was hoping another team would pick up Weber.

 

[Sydla]

They always do that. Desperate losers. Did it with Choice as well when we cut him.

A lot of teams do this. Whether they ever actually glean anything useful from them, that's another question.

 

[Alexander]

The longer he sits out there, the more I suspect he may get the call when they IR Gifford.

 

[dogunwo]

It is a joke. He can't play. But imagine what the sound of millions clawing their eyes out would sound like.

Broaddus thought he was the best QB in that draft by far. Lol

 

[Irvin88_4life]

I have a hard time believing that Jelks wouldn’t be on that list over Hyatt and Guyton (if he clears waivers).

There is only 7 on that list, it's not complete

 

[CT Dal Fan]

Once Zeke signs the Cowboys will have five true running backs counting the practice squad. I wonder if they're keeping Weber on the PS as a "just in case" move and he'll be gone on Monday or Tuesday.

 

[Floatyworm]

It's Mayock most likely. He claimed before the draft that Kizer had the highest ceiling of the QBs in the draft.

yup...Mayock is a Notre Dame homer for sure....

 

[gmoney112]

Agreed.

So, we just put the Eagles rookie QB on our practice squad.

Crap.

I'm hoping you find an Eagles forum that you like better than this one.

 

[Altestic]

I'm hoping you find an Eagles forum that you like better than this one.

I don't know why you guys don't get it. I'm a fan of BOTH teams, roughly equally. Why is that so hard for you guys to comprehend?
