Why is the 3-T not a priority?

What's it going to be then, eh?

Collins is holding this defense back. He might be try hard and all, but replace him with a quality 3-T talent, this defense can take off.

I know we keep adding reserves to supplement, but that is just ignoring the real issue.

Discuss.

This is the strongest DT draft in memory.Suggest you hold your thoughts til April 30th.
Our front office has now put us in position to operate with a lot of flexibility in this draft,no reason to trash them on March 31.
 
I get it but it is so strange that he is so arrogant not to realize that Warren Sapp pretty much made his reputation.

He can "whisper" to low rate talent to get them to be average.

I guess that is what all-timer coaches like him do. Ride off the coattails of elite talent and then coach up overachievers.

Sure seems to be what he is doing in the twilight of his career in Dallas.
 
This is what I don't get. 3T is what Sapp played right? Marinelli is running that same defense right? Why does he think he can get a Sapp from the garbage bin?

Don't know other than he's really, really old and he loves the underdog mentality of taking slop and overachieving with it.

That's great when you're in a bad spot looking to make do but when it becomes a long term philosophy you've got a problem.

Well, since you put it that way, I guess I will hold onto any further thoughts on the subject and wait for the inevitable solution that will result.

It is just arrogance in a way.

He honestly thinks he made Warren Sapp and Simeon Rice kick butt because of his approach.
 
I like Maliek Collins but you can upgrade there. We need a dominator in the middle of the defensive line. Our own Fletcher Cox.

Sure, it's hard to find them but the Cowboys haven't prioritized looking for one. Which is the point of this thread.

Apparently. You would think making a fool of yourself over Joey Ivie would humble you in retrospective. Not Rod.

I seriously thought he was a goner this offseason. I was convinced of it. I can not believe he's still here.
 
It just blows my mind that a position that is so vital is ignored or plugged with temp help.

It shocks me how he was allowed to stay.

With things exactly as they were.

He should have been shown the door just like Kiffin.

 
I suspect Kerry Hyder is your 3T.

He is a 6'2" 280 pound 27 year old.
I think he is a better player than Collins.

All that said I would expect 3T to be a strong option with that R2 pick.
