2020 Roster talk

[scotsman1948]

Just looked him up. Because still on his rookie deal would only cost a team that traded for him $2.1M against the cap

Okay then w should go for it. Offer a 2021 4th and a 2022 6st and see if they take it

I'd like to first hear that they think he is significantly better than HHCD because HaHa is much more durable, at least has been so far. So IMO he not only has to be better than HaHa but a lot better because I don't think you can play those two together too often without exposing them in run defense

we have 4 safeties on our roster Clinton-Dix, Thompson, Wilson and Woods. in my book this the most pitiful area on our team. if not Hooks then we need to seriously find a veteran strong safety

oh boy....maybe the team plans on adding a corner to the safety position as what's been reported. Besides, the current safety group is better than last years group....least to me they are

oh i agree they are better than last years group but that doesn't mean they are good/above average and moving Awuzie or Lewis or one of the other doesn't make the group better just another body in the mix(who needs to learn the position)

I think HHCD and Woods will be ok as starters. Yeah, not All Pros, but I think they will be ok and ok is better than we have had for years. Call me crazy but I'm still more worried about CB than safety.

Okay you're crazy

i agree that Woods is/are will be a quality Free Safety. HHCD is a slightly below average to good Free Safety. Thompson and Wilson are average backups(backup being the optimum word). it wouldn't hurt to actually bring a real Strong Safety

heard rumors that they might play with the idea of Awuzie moving to safety.
Looked up some stats & sure seems to tackle a lot. But at this point. I simply have no opinion on what to do with our DBs. Just seems like we are doing what we can with what we got scenario. Which might be fine if we had some kind of amazing pass rush. Which we dont. Our best pass rusher last season is no longer on the team.

I wonder if he tackles a lot because he gave up so many completions

I hear all the move to safety talk but I think Awuzie is given a shot to win a starting spot at CB first

I am not gonna pretend to have a clue what to do LOL
Just gonna hope the new coaching staff knows their business. I am completely befuddled on our DBs.

the Cameron Erving is complete. 1 year 2.5M leaving us $5702455

 

[Sir Robin Of Camelot]

Could he start the season as the #1? Who knows.

But - I do enjoy watching a man ply his craft with an obvious level of expertise.

Don't forget the $6M that moves into next year once Frederick formally retires after 6/1

Until it happens it technically doesn't exist but I haven't forgotten

so are we through with FA's or do we still have a move or 2 that we need to make?

If you are counting small moves I'm sure we have at least a half a dozen left and likely more - including of course churning the bottom of the roster and cut down day type pickups. Splash moves I'd say we are done

okay that's TC stuff. and of course i'm not talking splash moves i'm talking good backups at certain positions like TE, LB and any others we can think of

I hope the cowboys look for a new punter as well. Chris jones was terrible last year and not much better in 2018.

I dont know if they have brought in any competition for Jones. They need to. Never been impressed with Jones.
