On a related note, really not hearing anything about Gallimore. Unless we make a roster move we need at least one of them to contribute every week
come on Trystan
sign Earl. Let woods and Earl be the tandem. This front 7 will create lots of heat on QB. Earl will get lots of interceptions in this defense. We need players that can turn the ball over on the back end. I am also fully on board with Diggs to be thrown into the fire if we got good players at safety. Diggs has the best ball skills of all the corners.Don’t let anyone try to convince you that ET is old and no good. He still balls
As you may be aware by now, Jerry Jones has occasionally gambled on the merits of a player’s character as it relates to production and hit more than a few dry holes as a result. Doesn’t mean the old wildcatter’s learned his lesson. For Earl Thomas’ sake, not to mention the Cowboys’ secondary, let’s hope not.
Consider recent developments: The Cowboys need a safety now that they’ve paid Ha Ha Clinton-Dix$2.5 million not to play it.
And Earl’s available. Like, for two weeks now.
Not so long ago, this would have been a no-brainer. Say what you want about Earl at 31. No longer the best safety of his generation. That title now belongs to Jamal Adams. Just the same, Earl’s still pretty good. Last season, his first on a new team and in a defense that moved him all over the field, he put up an 86.1 coverage grade. Quarterbacks posted a 24.2 rating when targeting him, the lowest figure of 263 defenders who qualified. Quarterbacks’ completion percentage of 44 percent against him was the second lowest. No, Earl’s no longer No. 1, but Pro Football Focus still rates him the seventh-best safety in the league.
I like Gifford.. the other longshot I like is Francis BernardSounds like Gifford and Bryant injured enough that they are either cut or moved to IR: I’m a big fan of Gifford and hope he is here one way or another. Bryant seemed to be playing really well and earning a roster spot, but it’s not likely he would contribute enough this year any way so I’m not too worried about what happens with him.
This is shocking to me.trystan college highlight showed he could move very well for a big man... but last season he seemed to be not motivated. granted McCoy getting injured helped him obviously. Maybe he paid close attention to McCoy on how and what it looks like to be professional? I still think gallimore will become a good player.come on Trystan

I'm not sure Bernard is a long shot at this point. I think he dresses on Sundays if he plays STs and may even play on defense when Lee is out. March is just not very good and not sure who else it would be if we need a 4th so hoping BernardI like Gifford.. the other longshot I like is Francis Bernard
I think Gallimore will be good too. I was expecting him to make a big contribution year 1 even with McCoy. Now with McCoy out I'm hoping it's true. Just seems odd how little we have heard about him and usually that isn't a great sign, but games and practice are different so we'll see soon.This is shocking to me.trystan college highlight showed he could move very well for a big man... but last season he seemed to be not motivated. granted McCoy getting injured helped him obviously.

I know the risk of losing Bernard, but if Lee is IR'd I expect him back.Clearly I know nothing about this team
I guess I can cling to the STs aspect of my comment as a reason he didn't make the team but this is kind of surprising to me. An obvious PS target at least I hope. I assume we move Lee to IR and bring him back onto the 53, but clearly I'm just pissing into the wind with my predictions at this point![]()
Maybe Lee and Gifford both. Seems like a no brainer to bring him back once one or both go to IRI know the risk of losing Bernard, but if Lee is IR'd I expect him back.
Can you make that show all?
He's brokeYou just can't depend on Lee. Probably the most injury prone player in the NFL.
I dont get why we needed 4 tight ends. Should have kept bernard on 53 and had that 4th TE on practice squad.Clearly I know nothing about this team
