What's strange is that they were just glowing about free from JG to JJ to even Fred. So I am curious as to what the plan is.

Waters is a six time Pro Bowler who, even at 36, is a better option than a career backup (Bernadeau) or a converted tackle (Free) at right guard.

Berny sucks,its that simple.
he has to be better than Leary and berny and i bet he can do that.

Waters is a guard. This is an upgrade over Bernadeau

Well you can take what JJ says with a grain of salt. As a whole, I wouldn't expect them to say anything other than "he's playing great" because the Cowboys are master PR spinners. They're not going to say publicly if something is wrong, even if it is.
With that said, I don't think it's necessarily that Free was playing bad. But he's never played a regular season NFL game at guard and with Waters, you have more depth along the line as a whole, plus you aren't forced to start Parnell at RT. You can actually let Free/Parnell compete again and play whoever is better.

But we were not counting on Bernie starting. From all reports we've heard is that Leary was healthy and ready to go and Free has looked good. But we haven't heard much on the Parnell front and I'm wondering if that's why.

Bryan Water's pinky is better than anything we currently have playing OG. I'm not looking for him to "light the line on fire;" just be consistent, and that would be marked improvement.

From what I have heard, Free was having his best camp since 2010 at right tackle. I didn't understand why they would want to mess that up and make him start learning guard. Now, with Waters on board, Free can stay where he belongs.

Well it's not just JJ. So actually JJ wasn't even the first one to come out and give Free am endorsement first IIRC. I am not as excited as some because the guy hasn't played in a year and he is 36 and those are legit concerns. But my other questions are 1. Is Leary ok? Because Brad speculates Bernie starts this week? Since when was that? 2. Is free struggling? 3. Parnell just not ready? Listen I think Doug has had a very good TC by far our most consistent linemen this TC. I think this has more to do with Parnell.
