Tony Romo’s 2014 Dallas Cowboys breakout candidate: defensive lineman Tyrone Crawford

Why the Mincey love? What has he done except for skip meetings? He is very linear with no anchor. I'd dump him based on what we have. I don't want his type on this team.

Crawford will show to be twice the player Selvie is. On either side. I think Bass, if healthy, is far better than Selvie too.

Okoye? I think he makes the team, but barely.

I want my best guys starting. To me that's Bass, McClain, Melton and Crawford.

How is McClain any better than mincey? At least Mincey has had a good year in Jacksonville, McClain has done nothing. And if Crawford is twice as good as selvie we gain double digit sacks along with selvies 5+ hopefully.

Don't throw Mincey in the fire because of his past.

I don't know how to feel about him. He was kind of considered a reach in the 3rd round and more of a project player. He didn't play much as a rookie but looked okay when he did. But that was in a 3-4. Then we switched to a 4-3 and he got hurt walking into the building. So I have no idea. He's not really ideal size to play any D-line position, but our coaches claim he's versatile enough to play all of them. I really don't know. But I'm interested to see. We need all the help we can get. To be honest, I have very low expectations for the defense. I just hope we can not be the worst defense in the history of the NFL because I think the offense can be good enough to possibly get us to the playoffs.

He is ideal size to play the SDE and can gain the weight to be ideal 3 tech. He hovers in the 288lb range making him a good sized body to play with strength but he also has penetrating quickness, not pure straightline speed but quick to the hole and point of attack.

Idk I hope it's true, and with dlaw hopefully adding rush off the edge this line could Be special. That would give us 3 standouts and a hand full of solid rotation guys.

Still wanna sign Kevin Williams tho.

Honestly, I don't. Kevin williams is old so you're paying for age and I truly believe Bishop is going to be really really good at the 1.

SDE - Crawford, Mincey, Gardner
1-tech - McClain, Bishop
3-tech - Melton, Okoye
WDE - Selvie, Lawrence

Bass/Coleman over Okoye. I think Okoye will be an early cut.

I think Okoye will be an early cut.

Typical boom or bust signing. Does he have a last hurrah? Can he still play in this league? May depend on injuries and how deep we go. Yet another interesting story to watch in training camp.

Okoye does not have a burning passion for the game. His effort has been questioned throughout his career. I don't think he will make it.
