Video: Why Robert Jones Could be a 'Huge' Pick Up for the Cowboys

[75boyz]

I just feel like that lineup gives you the closest thing to nearly having an elite line.

It's not about where the players are now. Yeah, like DQ said, be where your feet are.

But, to me, it's more about coaching them all up to their potential. I actually do think Tyler Smith can be a top 5 LT in the league given the proper coaching. He has the ability.

I agree.

 

[75boyz]

I’m with you. I just don’t see it happening.

All along I’ve felt it’s been an outsmart everyone else thing by keeping Tyler at LG, signing him accordingly, then maybe moving him out to LT on the cheap....as if he won’t say a word about it.

Let’s see what actually happens.

I thought this too.

I'm thinking Ron Leary. Took him a while too. But he eventually got it.

Did he? I thought he came out the gate playing well am I remembering him wrong? Thought it was his knees we were concerned with.

I remember Romo working with him some. I could be remembering wrong. Thing is, Jones is only one year older than Waletzko. He's only 26.

Jones had an off year in 2024, but he does have some upside....

He won’t be on the roster when the season begins.

He seems better than Chuma Edoga.

Low bar, but still an improvement.

I thought this too.

So, I was curious and looked it up. It did take him a while. But he had a knee issue that prevented him from being drafted.

I like the pick up. He played a lot of quality starting snaps down in Miami. He was mauling guys. Many of the Miami fans were stunned they didn't retain him . I wouldn't doubt this guy ends up starting for us at rg or lg. Worst case, hes a back up. He's really going to push for a role. This makes for good competition in camp.

He started and played well in Miami. He's got a lot of good tape. It's difficult to find bad tape. I remain positive about him.

Low bar, but still an improvement.

Chuma was a turn style. Plus he played more tackle than guard I think. But still was a liability. He lacked power. Yes indeed, correct, this signing was an improvement.

 

[Rayman70]

I would have no problem seeing him compete to win Martin’s old job come camp . Between him or Hoffman .

I love Hoffman as a center, not so much as a guard. Your right, he should really push Hoffman and others for that vacant rg position.

My response was to fivetwos speculating that the team's plan may have been to play and pay Tyler at guard while ultimately switching him to LT.
My post wasn't Leary related.
But no worries brother.

The Cowboys are developing a certain “Memphis Showboats vibe”.

I can appreciate this, lol.
Attended elementary thru HS in the 901.
Grew up there.

Kyle Kosier part two.

Could he end up being serviceable?

Kosier was definitely serviceeable. If he can repeat that it would be a huge win.

 

[iceberg]

He wishes he was Kosier.

i wish i was kosier.
