9. How long can L.P. Ladouceur snap the ball? He is 36 now

10. If and it's a BIG if Sam Irwin-Hill beats out Chris Jones in camp,how many of you will use the phrase on a bad punt "What in the Sam Hill was that?"

1. Not good with Moore (the majority of the board is, which is somewhat comforting, I suppose, while at the same time befuddling. Conundrum.).

2. Camp body, bless his heart. At most, 3rd stringer, I guess; whom I was higher on last season than this one. Hope we see very little of him.

3. Who knows? If he flashes as a DB, we may see more of him.

4. Did not! Wowza! Still think he makes the PS, but that's very impressive for young Noah.

5. Yet to be seen. He's been working like a hog all offseason. We will see soon enough. He may still be raw in run packages but excell in passing plays, raw in both, or adept in both. We shall see soon. If I had to guess, I would say adept in pass plays, needs to continue working in run packages,

6. If healthy, Green, and it's not even close. Green beast'ed last season when healthy. Cooper is a wet dream until he proves anything.

7. :angry: #FreeRandyGregory!!!

8. Who cares.

9. Considering how little he's used due to his niche roster spot, probably until his 80's. Maybe even 110 :)

10. All the damn time. To the point I will be put on even more ignore lists :p He won't, tho.

Adding to your list:

1) Sign another LB like Orr/Washington
2) Trade for a legit pass rushing threat, or 2

Nothing on the trade block is better than what we have.

I can't remember the number but only a half dozen or so 4-3 defensive linemen had double digit sacks last season. Being as how young our DL is and that we were middle of the pack in sacks last season...leads me to believe this unit can improve to be a top 10 unit with what we have.

I'd sign Washington for a look-see if he obliged, otherwise I completely agree, Rob.

1. Is everyone besides Floaty good with Kellen Moore as the back up?
I'm fine with it for this year. Actually, I prefer it. They should consider drafting a project in the mid rounds next year that could become the backup.

2. Is Alfred Morris just a Camp Body incase McFadden get injuried?
Odd situation. If Zeke or McFadden were out for a game, Morris would be preferred over the other options; however, as long a Zeke and MdFadden are playing, some young RB that plays ST and that can catch and/or block would be preferred.

3. Is this Jameill Showers last training camp?
Does it matter?

4. Did you guys know Noah Brown was just 19 years old?
Wow, I didn't know that.

5. How raw is Rico Gathers at this point?
Probably not as Raw as you would expect. I think he might have a better mental makeup than the average player.

6. Who has the best shot at left guard Cooper or Green?
I think Green will practice at both OG and OT. I think Cooper wins a spot if Collins stays at RT but Green could end up at RT with Collins moving back to OG.

7. Can we please Just take Randy Gregory off the roster? Ticks me off every time I see his name.
I'm going to bride the admin at the Cowboy's website to put his name on the roster twice...

8. Why is Zach Woods #100 on the roster?
I see him listed as #49.

9. How long can L.P. Ladouceur snap the ball? He is 36 now.
He could snap it forever, but Long Snappers have to be part of the punt coverage teams. It was this duty that caused Hellestrae to retire. I'm sure Hellestrae can probably still snap it better than some active Long Snappers.

10. If and it's a BIG if Sam Irwin-Hill beats out Chris Jones in camp,how many of you will use the phrase on a bad punt "What in the Sam Hill was that?"
That would be funny, but funnier is it happened to another fan base. Chris Jones is an under appreciated player.

This was the fun type of silly thread.

There are other silly threads that are just dumb.
