Safeties being swooped up

[dez_for_prez]

The only one worth a damn is Byrd and we aren't getting him.

Add Eagles to the list. They signed Malcolm Jenkins from the Saints for a three-year $16.25 million contract.

I do not know what the worry is.

"We like what we have at safety."

 

[KingintheNorth]

If we could get Byrd for similar to what Ward got it would lessen the sting of Ware for me some.

 

[big dog cowboy]

And it was by one of the suspects that I would have listed as being a panic-button pusher.

Sorry but you get NO bonus points for that.

When Woodson left he took 10 years of future talent with him. Damn hard to match what he brought to the table. Still searching for a replacement.

Hope it doesnt take 10 years to replace Ware.

 

[PJTHEDOORS]

I'm guessing with the worst DL in football, safety isn't that high of a priority right now.

 

[AmishCowboy]

What about Nate Allen? Had a decent rookie year then was hurt. Played better the second half of last season. I'd bring him in for a reasonable deal. Young and still has potential.

They can't wait to run him out of Philly

 

[DallasEast]

Lots of teams getting new safeties. 9ers, Browns, Bucs, Bears.

Every year this is the one position I wish we would clear up. Until we do, we will NEVER win a thing...

We were a Jarvis Byrd away from a championship. Who knew?

The intelligence of Cowboys fans always amazes me..

Until the Cowboys fix their pass rush, it won't matter who they have at safety, in my opinion.

Bingo.

This is why you appreciate great players when they're in Dallas.

It's going to be a long time...a LONG time before we ever even sniff close to a player than can get us 117 sacks in 9 years.

Up until the past year and a half or two, we had a pass rush.... We haven't had a S in a verrrrrry long time!!!!

 

[jobberone]

Agreed. We love the Heath/Wilcox/Lynn Scott Keith Davis guys. Jerry forgets how valuable Woodson was. Tried with Hamlin and Sensebough. Got one good year from each of them.

We don't know yet what we have in Wilcox and Heath needs to be looked at. You have to at least consider giving the young guys a look before moving to the next guy. People forget Woodie didn't play a lot right away.

 

[DFWJC]

If we pass on FS in the 1st, anyone here like Terrance Brooks in maybe the 3rd?

 

[FuzzyLumpkins]

Based on what we have seen so far. Not really. Ok Tony Dixon, does that feel better?

No. Wilcox was a top 100 prospect according to most rating services. Those other guys were fringe UDFA. You are just resorting to hyperbole.

Tony Dixon was a similar prospect. Wilcox was green as grass but still made several plays on the ball at least.

 

[GoCowboysGo]

Saints just agreed to sign Byrd.
