News: Tapper to IR

[CowboyChris]

Glad we passed on that guy Dak Prescott early in the 4th to take Tapper.
Oh wait, we still lucked into Dak much later in the 4th round
Brilliant drafting!

no doubt

Elliott
Dak
Maliek Collins
Brown
Jackson
Frazier
And Jaylon Smith might be the best of them all in the end.


But everybody wants to criticize the Tapper pick. As if all team hit on every pick in every round. Sheesh.

 

[Idgit]

Not quiet. I'm sure there will be bunch of "when will/can Tapper return" threads later on.

You could be right. I liked the pick just fine, but it's hard to get worked up about a guy we haven't really seen on the field at all, yet.

I'm kind of interested to hear more about how Zach Moore (the dude we lifted from MIN) has been doing. I'd heard early on they were pretty interested in him, but after we signed Ryan Davis, I think that bottled that talk up a bit.

 

[Idgit]

Wait, so he's not "day to day" anymore?

He had a setback reported yesterday, whatever that means.

 

[JoeyBoy718]

Depends on Collins recovery as well.

Yep. Turf toe could be a year long thing. Then again, we don't know if Tapper's issues are career threatening or not.

 

[Redball Express]

Hopefully him and Jaylon can contribute next year

Hey..

Now they can split the cost for a hot looking massage girl while they are out for their injuries.

That knee and back are going to need constant attention.

Collins could chip in too.

 

[xwalker]

Jon Snow returned...

One player can return from IR.

I don't watch GoT but I know that guy returned from death or something wacky like that.

 

[chagus]

Him and Gregory will be back stronger than ever next year...which is great because now we can focus on offense in the draft!! More firepower

 

[AmishCowboy]

Glad they finally shut down Tapper, get him healthy for next year

The draft is luck in itself. Very little of it is skill.

 

[RS12]

Rookie Charles Tapper may not be a happy camper right now.

On Tuesday, the Dallas Cowboys decided to place the defensive end on injured reserve after suffering a setback with his Pars defect, leading to a new fracture in his L5 vertebra. And that's just one issue the first year pass rusher is dealing with.

It looks like he didn't even find out he was being made inactive from the club itself, but instead from a less favorable source.

Cowboys have placed rookie DE Charles Tapper (back) on IR to make room for newly-signed OT Emmett Cleary

 

[Wood]

They said no surgery

he is actually getting 2nd & 3rd opinion. They might influence his decision.

You want about 2 starters out of your draft and some depth guys. The Cowboys have potentially found far more than that. Three potential franchise guys you can build your team around. Tapper doesn't damage this draft. If Zeke, Dak and Jaylan pan out this is already one of our best drafts on recent memory and that's not factoring in the other solid guys.
