Travis LaBoy: Go Get Him Jerry!

[big dog cowboy]

Yeah we need another player with a history of injuries. Potential is fine, but staying power counts for something as well.

:laugh2:

 

[BAT]

Can I just explain something real quick here.

We get it. You love the players from Hawaii.

But that doesn't mean they are all great players.

The Cards aren't just throwing away good young defensive talent because they don't want to go back to the Super Bowl.

Someone says he was released because he's got a chronic injury. Which is a good reason to do so. Players who can't get on the field aren't very useful.

And then you say Jerry will love him in an interview and we should sign him.

How about looking out for the team?

Why bring in a player who has all kinds of inury concerns and may never see the field because you like what he said in an interview.

I don't like that plan and neither should you as a Cowboys fan.

You are one **** kneed patronizing little squat aren't you? I do look out for this team, I bring up options that I am familiar with. Just because you don't know your elbow from your ace about players does not mean you can paint me with the same brush.


Was I wrong about Veikune? You blasted me for my bias, and harangued me for even comparing him to Sidbury. Well, we saw who the real experts liked better. I talk about a lot of players, but whenver I bring up a local boy, your little antennae go up and you display a lot of negativity. Is it me or did some islander kick the crap out of you before?


You calling out my fanhood is laughable, I would love for you to say that to my face. As for the Cards releasing LaBoy, Hood & James, it is a combination of several factors, the paramount one being MONEY (they are trying to sign THREE crucial players: Dansby, Boldin & Adrian Wilson), which you would have known if you did any kind of research instead of talking to people like a pissant.

DeMarcus Ware, Anthony Spencer, Greg Ellis, Victor Butler, and Brandon Williams.

Even if Ellis is released or traded the Cowboys will want to see what their draft picks can do.

Exactly, why Draft Victor Butler and Brandon Williams, to sign Laboy?

I don't think so.

I don't think so.

Think about what you just said. You draft players on potential, they don't all make the team. Erik Walden for example. Wade also loved the kid, but he could not make the team.


Production should count for something. LaBoy is a proven commodity. I did say he was a cheaper option to a vet like Ellis, not the next coming of Demarcus Ware.


He also fits the mold of the new generation of Cowboy, hard worker & high character. I am certain many of you would change your mind if you watched this kid, his intensity and effort are off the charts.

 

[Bob Sacamano]

BAT, you may have to consider than we're not going to be signing any vets, any time soon

just like the people clamoring to sign a vet CB like Roderick Hood, 1st it was Lucas, that didn't happen

stasheroo clamoring for Matt Jones

and any free agent that is recently released

you sign those players after the draft when you feel like you didn't address that position in it, and for the time being, we selected 2 OLBs, so we pretty much addressed that position

I thought about it, Victor Butler and Brandon Williams will both have better careers than your Laboy.:laugh2:

I can see this logic if we signed high 1st or second round players...But to go into a season counting on a bunch of 3rd+ rookies to contribute right away scare me. Hope it works out.

well you aren't going to know if you can rely on them or not until a few months from now, and you'll have to wait even longer the more reps are being taken away from them because you have 3 or 4 vets in front of them

which is probably why it's not a good idea to cut Greg Ellis so fast

Listen Dog the Bounty Hunter, lol.

Your internet muscles are scaring no one. Especially someone from the Bronx, lol.

The Cards dropped him because the risk reward factor isn't worth it.

Research that.

And just to make you look silly.

You said we should take Veikune in the fourth round...

http://cowboyszone.com/forums/showthread.php?t=148673&highlight=HAWAII

You are such an expert on him you didn't think he was good enough to go in the 2nd round like he did, lol.

But we should trust you on LaBoy who we have all seen play already with the Titans and Cardinals?

This kid LaBoy has never even had one 50 tackle season in the NFL over 5 years because he's alway nursing some injury.

So we should drop Greg Ellis, shelve the two OLB's we just drafted and push our 2007 #1 draft pick to the side for that?



Sidbury will have more sacks than Veikune in Atlanta this season.

And I bet he winds up on the Chiefs.

We did watch him.

We watched him play DE for the most part in a 4-3 defense. Then some hybrid OLB for the Cardinals.

Then we watched him walk of the field with injuries here, there and every where.

Does he come with a roll of duct tape?

:laugh2:

I understand that it is a longshot, Jerry has all but admitted that he's institued a hiring freeze. I just believe that this player could be a good addition to the team, considering its current situation. LaBoy may be injury prone, so far, but every time he is on the field he produces. He is a playmaker, and those are the kind of players I want my favorite team to have.


LaBoy would probably be cheaper then signing someone like Jason Taylor, plus he's younger and can play the strongside. Heck, if the Cowboys rather trade for Julius Peppers than of course I would prefer that option.


All I'm doing is throwing out options. Economical & reasonable options to improve the team.

I am more than happy to wait and see. You have been so right so many times already. Just man up and admit it, you were wrong and you are a terrible evaluator. 2nd round pick is pretty good for a "trashy" player who is nothing but strong "which will not translate to the NFL". :laugh2:


As for my mocks with Veikune going in the 4th, I always clarified that I didn't think he would still be there but he would be great value there. You might have seen that if you didn't have your nose so far up in the air or if you were more media savvy instead of so media wannabe.


As for my internet muscles, anytime you want to talk about my fanhood, or anything else about me, you name the home game and I will be there. Guarans-ball-barans.

Dude, seriously. Get off Laboy's nuts. Your embarrassing yourself and making a mockery of all of the Cowboy fans in the world. Did you lose your virginity in Hawaii or something? I mean good god, there is absolutley NO ONE that is backing you up on this. Isn't that a red flag right there? You just crossed the line by putting him in your sig pic. I'm sure your in love with those big bulging muscles.There's always a few people on here that agree with your horrific plans and idea's but they must all be in Hawaii or something

Not even SilverBear will back you up on this one.

Veikune 4 lyfeee!!!!

 

[TNCowboy]

:laugh2:

What's :laugh2: are your posts in this thread. For some reason, you've fallen in love with this average player. Perhaps it's because Flo's pathetic play against AZ last season made Laboy look like something more than the mediocre player he is.

Teams - for obvious reasons - value pass rushers a great deal. And lots of teams need them. Yet here we are already past the draft and the great Travis Laboy (he of the 23 sacks in 5 years) is still available. It's not as if we're hearing that he's turning down offers left and right, either. To say nothing of the fact that 2 teams have already given up on him in his short career.

Why is a player of his caliber still a FA? Because no team puts much value on him. Sort of like Roy Williams. He's nothing more than a JAG. I'm sure he'll eventually catch on in Kansas City or Detroit or Cincinnati or some other team starved for players.

 

[Hostile]

I am not at all opposed to this idea. In fact, I could get behind it very easy.

That means it won't happen.
