Dude. What alternate universe is that a description of LVE?At least he’s stayed healthy

It’s highly unlikely he plays 4-5 more years with Dallas, but yes maybe somewhere else, if they don’t look at the game film on him.Absolutely not.
LVE is still decent at football. Jaylon was lost on the field. Terrible.
LVE will likely play 4 or 5 more years minimum. Jaylon is likely done.

totally agree. 6 seems low. The stats I provided are from pro football referenceI'm pretty I've seen him miss more than 6 tackles. They must not be including those instances where he doesn't attempt the tackle.
Sean Lee never held back to keep from getting injured and he got injured a lot. It's too bad he couldn't stay healthy because he would be looking at putting on a gold jacket.I was thinking about this yesterday. In a little over a years time, the linebacker corps will be completely turned over. Lee, Smith, (and soon) LVE all gone.
Too bad Lee couldn’t play one more season. I think he’d fit in well next to Parsons.
100%…. I feel bad for the guy if he can no longer function as a LBer. Sorry. But now that we know you can’t (or won’t) do the job— go sit on the bench and let’s get someone out there who can actually function in the role.
We are basically playing 10 vs 11 with LVE out there
Doesn't he have the right to refuse?
I think he was done at the start of the season. He has not built the body that is required to be a LB in the NFL.Hes done here I agree.
Some team like the Dolphins or Raiders will give him 7-8 million a year.
OK, what does a finesse LB do? He has less athleticism.He’s a finesse linebacker. That’s his game. Now he just has less athleticism and he’s asked to play a style of football that isn’t even his strength.
So much for going after Cunningham? Titans picked him up.Jerry needs to immediately fly in the newly departed Texans LB Zach Cunningham and sign him to the team. Problem solved for the depreciating LVE.
He needs to fund a hospital or something.Yep. Jerry is not running a halfway house for charity cases. Although sometimes it seems he needs to be reminded of that fact lol
At this point it's personnel and that's really sad.Like why is this hard to digest?
Peyton Manning’s arm strength deteriorated rapidly, in a matter of 2 years, because of the neck fusion surgery.
LVE is a LB who needs the make hits. Him going backward is most likely a protective mechanism for this issue. It’s not that he can’t play, it’s a case of the body not being able to do what the mind wants. I just looked at some articles, and actual injury and surgery were kept under-wraps, most likely largely in part because of how it pertains to the situation of his contract.
He’s done… It’s not that he sucks, it’s that the injury has finally caught up.
The main issue is from the coaching and personnel side, as to why they continue to play him…
Bench his *** now! ANYBODY will be a better option then he is. The dude is fricking slow at everything he does on the field, there is nothing athletic about him anymore.........On today's Talking Cowboys the subject came up of who has been underperforming and who really needs to step up. Leighton Vander Esch was the unanimous choice. It was pointed out how he is constantly going backwards to try to make plays instead of attacking. They said this is why the Cowboys didnt pick up his 5th year option and how he has declined since his rookie year. If the Cowboys are going to make a run for the playoffs, Vander Esch needs to step up, or be replaced. I'm glad to see him being called out publicly. He is either afraid to get hurt or trying to save himself for his next team.
And you really believing that or searching to excuse his play?He looks awful. But having said that we have nothing else and he’s still way better than Jaylon. At least he’s stayed healthy
News flash.......right now LVE is not ok to be on the field.Expectations were high at the beginning of the season for LVE. He was injured last season and was reported to have gotten right in the offseason. He had a decent training camp. But then Micah Parsons happened. Having this measuring stick around to constantly remind everyone how far LVE has fallen was a bad thing for how everyone is perceiving LVE. I actually think LVE is okay, he's just not Parsons, but who is?
