White or Woods

[xwalker]

By the way it says in his scouting report that you posted, he missed tackles or took bad angles. Didn't see where it said runs from contact or allow others to tackle.

I never said he was the best tackler I actually said he needs more improvement but the willingness is there.
I watched the game too and I seen him trying to tackle. You can see what you want and not like the player but he will make this roster

"Tends to sit back and wait for the play to come to him rather than get in an opponent's face and initiate contact..."

6 CBs in 2008

Neither Woods or White are locks.

You've barely seen them this preseason.

7 corners.

They will make the roster unless injury keeps them from it

Courtney Brown was a corner not FS


You missed Tra Battle as a safety by the way

No, they tried him at CB as a rookie (2007) and he was too stiff (very fast but lacked lateral agility). They moved him to FS in an attempt to get something out of him.

I'm referencing the beginning of the season (initial cut) which is the topic of this conversation.

Battle was added late in the season as a Special Teams players. He never played CB for the Cowboys.

I said battle was a safety maybe you can't read. Your right they did convert Brown to safety but was originally a corner. Either way you still name 6 corners. This notion that you think we won't carry 6 corners cause we haven't in a few years is silly. Run around the bush all you want but those are facts

Jones Heath Frazier Blanton Awuzie Scandick Lewis Carroll Brown

I think those 9 are locks. That leaves 1 spot for those 2.

I'm curious which you prefer?

Myself I think White is soft and we could really use Woods depth as a FS. OTOH I know Broaddus and others like White. He can cover.

don't know that Frazier and Carroll are locks.

 

[Irvin88_4life]

don't know that Frazier and Carroll are locks.

Why is that?

 

[silver]

Why is that?

Because Frazier us unproven and Carroll is not very good, and may get suspended for his DIU to boot.

Nothing you have said proves they aren't locks. You don't think Carroll is good well Dallas disagrees and they make the decisions. Believe what you want but Frazier and Carroll are locks to be on this roster.

Well they might make the team but I doubt they're locks. Carroll was part of a terrible secondary with the Eagles, he's on the wrong side of 30 and we drafted 3 corners, I doubt he's a lock, plus he has to deal with an imminent suspension, so they wont have to make a decision on him util week 5 maybe. They only way he makes it is if Awusie, Lewis, Brown and White all get toasted during preseason and or the games he's suspended. Frazier path is less crowded as he's only competing with Woods and Blanton. It depends who plays better on Special Teams.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

No he is on I.R. had he not gotten hurt he would still be on the roster. Nice try though

Actually he was waived by the Browns and cleared waivers because no one wanted him. Cromwell and Duke will get all the carries. Nice try though.

Frazier for ST. Carroll for $3m.

He was cut because he is injured. Do you ever research what you say. Keep trying

Dallas tried to get Carroll for a couple seasons now. There is no way he isn't making this roster.

So if Zeke got hurt you believe the Cowboys would cut him? You may can get away with saying this type of stuff to children but we are all old enough to understand how this works.

What are you talking about. You have lost this conversation so bad that you are trying to compare Zeke now. You're wrong, get over it and let it go. Good day, go talk to yourself cause I'm done

I didn't say they never carried 6 CBs. I said I can't remember when they did. Is that 1 year out of 20+ ? Have they ever done it with Garrett as Head Coach.

Obviously it's always possible, but the percentages are against it.

Can you consider not acting like an 8 year old with all of the proclaimations?

Guarantees without consequence are just "look at me' statements.

I hope White somehow makes the roster but the odds are against him.

I disagree with you. Doesn't make me a child.......perhaps you should stop trying to be holier then thou cause someone disagrees.

Don't take my word for it. When White and Woods are on the roster come look me up

It has nothing to do with disagreement.

The constant guarantees are childish. You'll hide if you're wrong but create a thousand posts if you're right.

Find a way to place a bet with Vegas and put down 1k on the bet. Post the receipt when you win.

If you're correct but don't post some proof that you put real money on it, then you didn't really believe it.

I could predict White will make it in one thread and predict he won't in another. Then I can create a thread when I'm proven right. The thread would say "I told you so. I guaranteed it".

Again message board guarantees are the silliest thing on the internet.

There was a well known poster here that would post guarantees often. He eventually went to another message board in part because people kept calling out his failed guarantees. He would gloat endlessly if he was right but refuse to acknowledge the other 99 times he was wrong.
