Damn man, I really thought hed be guy that got this Dline over the hump and our QB pressures would increase dramatically from the synergy he brought. We need Dlaw. I hope this isn't a big deal.
Tell you what. The Cowboys beat the Eagles without him...Bryant or Romo. Thats how good this club really is. Prescott leads the way behind the best OL in the NFL...supporting Elliott ..and a defense that is very good. Forget the past... the FUTURE is NOW. Stiffen the DEFENSE and its the SB....

This current team has earned the right for the Dallas FO to trade for a guy like that.

Just can't wait too long

Not sure if Miami really has interest in getting rid of him. He had an Achilles injury last year. So far this year he only has 1.5 sacks. His salary is 7m so I would assume we would be on the hook for about 2/3 of that, close to 5m for this year. He has a 7m cap number next year. Pretty pricey when we have a tight cap as is. Not sure if it would be worth it.

Lol, Im with you but Dlaws would be a big help in stiffening up that defense. Like I said I hope its minor.

I think it was better back in the day before they had MRIs and everything else. Guys got hurt, they wrapped it and they played. If it hurt a lot they took a shot, and they played. Now it's all 'so and so got an MRI' and they sit out for weeks on end.

Was it that long ago that Ken Norton Jr played an entire season with his biceps muscle torn completely free and rolled up like a window blind inside his arm? Sigh, yeah I guess it was that long ago.

I hate when they don't immediately release results. Usually bad. Man, could we use a break (no pun) with D Law not being seriously injured.

Oh I am sure the answer is....day to day.....every day until he is ready. We will be told nothing.....except the process is day to day......

Rub some dirt on it . Cuddle these girls too much. Remember the likes of Lee Roy Jordan or Cliff Harris.. tough guys that played no matter what!!

Right. I haven't looked much into Wake-- I know he's gotta be getting up there in age though.

But the Cowboys have played well enough to go out and get an impact player in the trade market, and I'd be okay giving up a 3rd rounder or possibly even a 2nd depending on the guy.
I'd trade a second because they won't do anything but use it on some buckethead anyway.
