Based on who we passed on in rds 1-2 does this give us any indication of what the Cowboys think about our team?

They pass on Quinn = Satisfied with Romo

Passed on Bowe, Meachan, Jarret, Rice = Comfortable with Crayton/Miles
Austin/Hurd stepping up if Glenn/TO go down

They passed on Houston, and Merriweather = Trust Hamlin/Watkins to get it done at safety and Reeves/Jones to pull up the slack if Henry gets injured again or Aaron Glen lost a step

Passed on Branch = comfortable with Hatcher/Ratliff spelling Ferguson

Pick Spencer = pass rush is biggest weakness on defense and concern over Ellis return from achilles injury and that Carpenter is not going to cut it as a an OLB pass rush. (I expect carpenter to be moved inside replacing BJ)

Pick Marten = versatile OL that can eventually replace Flozell and possibly Columbo if the injury is an issue or they don't want to pay him the big $$$'s

I suspect that we will still pick up a FA NT to compete with Hatcher and Ratliff

My only real concern is at CB. Henry's injuries worry me and Glenn is no spring chicken. I am not sold on Reeves and Jones are suitable replacements. Other than that all in all I am pretty pleased with our first day.
