Time to worry about Overshown?

[atlantacowboy]

They got Marist Liufau and Kendricks. And they have Parsons and Clark.

Clark is terrible. Kendricks is old and way past his prime. Liufau hasn't played a down in the NFL. Parsons is a DE and wants to be paid like one since he lines up mostly at that position.

You seem to be very Dallas-centric in your football knowledge. I never said we didn't have enough warm bodies to field a football team.

Much ado about nothing?

In all likelihood, yes.

This forum has a collective phD in getting worked up over bumps and bruises.

Overshown is the heir apparent to Matt Johnson. The less he plays, the larger the myth around his playing ability grows. Perfect example of why you can't build a team on hopium. We needed a LB in the draft or in free agency.........but we had this guy penciled in.

You are too busy talking out of your behind to know what moves they actually made.

Typical response of someone that can't make a point. Maybe you should stick to what you know and keep the French fries coming.

You can't count on a guy who can't stay on the field. Hopefully they are being overly cautious but we'll see

 

[coult44]

our beat writers are useless, so many guys have injuries but they never ask questions about them.

Who reads to get their news? I mean, I will scroll X, but if it’s not in video, I’m probably moving on.

Matt Johnson part deux

I said the samein another thread and was attacked.

 

[spice]

Am I wrong here? How so?

So he’s not good for opening weekend?

It's a hip pointer. They heal.

Almost everything non fatal heals dude.
But being on the bench and not int the game is what we are talking about

 

[Mcsports]

Not to detour the thread, but quick question...

Did I misunderstand? I thought the number is still 53, but the new caveat is that you can put your 3rd QB on the practice squad instead of counting him on the roster... but but... he's on the practice squad then, and that means another team can pick him up as long as they're committed to having him on their roster for at least 3(?) games.

So, us or any other team that has a 3rd QB that could be somewhat conceivably appealing for another team to poach... you're not going to do that... you're just going to accept having 3 QBs on the regular roster (and thus, you only have a 53, not a 54)... no????

The emergency quarterback rule is for active game day roster (45 players).
If the other two quarterbacks leave a game then the emergency qb becomes an eligible 46th player

How can they not know the severity of a hip pointer? I'm sure he had an MRI, and if it was a multi-week thing, they would have announced it just like DaRon Bland's foot.

I think he will be ready for the opener and the team is just being overly cautious.

MM had a history of being cautious with injuries as well.

Overshown has been the most talked about draft prospect that the Cowboys have drafted in recent history that has done absolutely nothing but get hurt. I mean he has been the best camp linebacker for two years in the row according to Cowboys media and Cowboys YouTube. They even gave the kid a stupid nickname.

And you're overly negative. It's cute watching yall talk in hyperbole. "Hes the best," "No, he's the worst."

We have more than warm bodies. There's a lot of talent in that LB group. It may or may not come to fruition.

Cut him now right?

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Can’t worry about a guy we’ve never even see play a down of football yet.

 

[baltcowboy]

Let’s not go there. I would like to see him play a regular season game or two until we make him a starting linebacker like the media has made him.

 

[ArtClink]

Indeed

Sometimes you just come across that unlucky snake-bitten player that couldn't stay healthy. The poor guy didn't do anything wrong except hit the wrong "life" lottery. It's like he was just randomly selected to be "that" guy.

He has all the traits that make players great. He has physical gifts, been playing since he was 4, loves the game, etc. He has potential off the charts, that's what hurts the most. He has everything except luck.

Overshown wouldn't be the only NFL player. Heck, He wouldn't come close to being the only Cowboy.

The overreactions here are priceless.
