Ash and price were practice squad guys. Any of the 31 other teams could have given them an offer.....but they got none. Price was on greenbays squad.

Irving was on KC's so what? They were prospects and developed. Both Ash and PRice can sink a knee and stand up to double teams. I don't care how they were acquired. The both bull rush but Price can swim and push pull to disengage from blockers. Being on GB's development squad doesn't mitigate that.

Irving had talent but also had maturity isdues that scared teams. Ash and price can stand there and take double teams barely but neither have big ceilings. Price atleast might end up being the next hayden, i just wanted better. Ash sux.

Where is our starting defensive tackle? Not saying i hate any of the picks but are we really gonna roll with price or udfa as the 1 tech to anchor this line?

Charron---i totally agree...i have not watched since 5th round sometime...has anyone taken a flyer on Hurst?...he says nothing wrong with his heart...but heard Mike Mayock say he has same condtion as the big college basketball star of 1980's who fell over dead in practice with bad heart condition?

I think at this point you’d have to think they’re leaving Maliek @ 1 technique
bad move...leaving Collins at 1-tech..yes he can sub now and then...but not as starter...his performance will continue to diminish in my opnion

Hayden could not stand up to double teams and I really think you underrate that skill. You analysis is shallow and that speaks to you being emotional as opposed to rational. You have a pet cat that was not picked?

Haha I'm pretty sure it's from one of those cheesy Lifetime movies that I saw quoted on the internet. Seemed fitting for the Cowboys.

Collins played all season on a broken foot, nobody knows how good he could be at the 1 tech.

I get the concern but Hank Gathers was having issues for over a month, refused his medication, and played through it anyway. From what i understand Hurst has not had the palpitations.

I get the concern and why he is falling but I really hope someone at least gives him a shot.

I really how when ancient Rod leaves we'll get a true 1. It's hard to believe we continue to get gashed on the run but refuse to get a run stopper.
For years homie, for years!! Every draft I call for this , I remember I wanted Tay Cody from Alabama the year we got Sean Lee. I know that's not a good example I'm just pointing out how long I have clamored for us to draft a good Defensive Tackle. I just don't get why they don't & I can't point out any team that's successful that practices this philosophy. It's maddening

Godd question.
But if they didnt take him in 1st 3 rounds, you sure cant count a late round rookie starting.
Thats very unusal...happens, but could never expect it.
Disappointing anyway
