Good Lord, And I thought my wife eating Ox tail was gross.

I had oxtail ravioli about 2 months ago. It was awesome

Mine too, I won't even try some of her food. Pancit, Lumpia and Adobe is about all I'll eat.
The dish with peanut butter, turns my stomach, never even sampled it.

Wow ...that is pretty much the only things I will eat on occasion too. But I always have to make some adjustments
The pancit will get some red pepper flakes and the adobe will get a an extra 20 minutes in the toaster oven.

One of her favs is Dinuguan. It is identical to mud from your yard in a bowl.

I think I would try that if you stuffed it in a Ravioli. I might ask her to try that ...as soon as were talking again.

My wife's adobo is great, instead of vinegar she uses lemon juice. Is Dinugaun the same as blood meat. There's another dish I refuse to sample. One thing about Filipinos, they don't waste any part of the life stock.

Quality short-term depth

Desperation????? Per Rotoworld
Free agent S Dashon Goldson is visiting the Cowboys.
One of the worst safeties in the league last season, Goldson was cut prior to the start of free agency by the Redskins. Washington is reportedly interested in bringing him back at a cheaper price, but the Cowboys could use some help in the secondary as well. He should be a reserve wherever he lands.

 

[Manster7588]

Free agent DE Jason Jones will visit the Cowboys.
Dallas will also meet with OL Joe Looney. Jones has also met with the Dolphins, and the Steelers reportedly have interest. Jones started 31 games for the Lions over the last two seasons, recording 9.5 sacks and standing up well against the run. He will turn 30 in May.

I didn't realize Jones was that old

I stated a while back my thoughts on how bad Goldson was last year, even though I have read articles recently stating he was good...but I don't think he was quite as bad as that blurb makes him out to be. It would be a head-scratcher to let a talented, impact guy like Weddle go and sign an obviously inferior player like Goldson unless it was for real cheap...If we could get him at a salary that makes sitting him OK if he gets beaten out I wouldn't have a huge problem with signing him, but I hope we wouldn't sign him and assume our problem at the position was solved...but with this team and safety...who knows what we are thinking...

Karl Joseph would solve the SS safety problem

I think the Cowboys are trying to add enough "need' players that they can go BPA in the draft. They've signed a DT, DE, RB, have made a run at a couple of corners, and now have a DL, OL and S coming in. Have looked at nearly every need...except QB

I believe you are right. And it's starting to lead me to believe one of the QB's are in play at #4. Wentz more so than Goff. And if not those two at #4, then Lynch at #35. Missing out on Carrol and Robinson really has me thinking that Hargreaves may actually be in play.

I'm thinking Dallas' board at #4 might look something like this:
1) Wentz
2) Ramsey
3) Goff
4) Hargreaves
5) Jack/Buckner

As I said earlier...that is exactly how to run an offseason. Always set yourself up to take BPA. Teams that "fill needs" at #4 deserve to pick at #4 again the next year. But, I'm not so sure we have actually filled our needs. Safety, QB, CB, pass rusher...time will tell. A couple FA hits and a good draft could do wonders for this team

What is trading back 3-5 spots worth?? Serious question. Obviously the other teams spot, but what else

 

[Manster7588]

Anyone think SF or Philly try to jump up to three for a QB?

Per the trade value chart trading back to 7 = a little more than that 1st and 3rd rounders. Usally the team wanting the trade more takes it in the end.

Rough estimate:
Trading to 9 gets you their first and second. But of course what matters most is how bad a particular teams wants something, not what some draft trade chart says.

Anyone think SF or Philly try to jump up to three for a QB?

Or #1....I'm looking at Tennessee, they got their QB, but he got sacked 54 times last year, despite being mobile They have Lewan, but need another OT badly. They are linked to the Miss tackle, but there are a couple of other blue chip OT's, could see them moving down. Cleveland could go QB, or could move down as well. They have holes everywhere, and just signed RG3. When Griffin had a great rookie year, it was with Alfred Morris and him killing it on the zone read, so why not trade down, add picks, and draft Elliott? SD has needs on the OL, but they are likely to grab Ramsey if he's there . It's wide open. I'd be happy with Wentz, happy with Buckner, and I don't care if it's a reach, I'd be all about Hargreaves if Ramsey is gone
