Aldon Smith

[GNG]

Tank,Gregory and Smith have proven in the past they can put serious pressure on QB. Getting Anae in the 5th round was a steal. Poe and McCoy can also create pressure. They will need to because the secondary is a concern..

I still haven't heard whether the DC will go with a 3-4 or 4-3 defense.

They have said 4-3 many times with other looks sprinkled in

he doesn't pay attention unless it's about the Packers

I hope the Cowboys don't regret signing him.

Should be no regrets unless he kills someone. If he doesn't pan out, he's gone with minimal salary. If he's cut it's like spare change found in the couch.

Hopefully, someone else steps up just in case it doesn't work out.

Mike Nolan has mostly used a 3-4 defense as a DC. I know he said they'll have different looks but I guess we'll soon find out.

I don't know where you get the notion that I'm a Packers fan. This must really bother you.

there have been all kinds of articles saying their base will be a 4-3.
I am sure they will have some 3-4 looks amongst other types of defenses, but the answer to your question is a 4-3.

Nope just stating fact

They most likely will run a mix of 3-4 and 4-3 so it won't be 4-3 all the time.

Not a fact, just your opinion.

Not sure this means a lot, with his time away, but
"Aldon Smith 'Bigger and Stronger' Than He Was with 49ers"

Dallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy told reporters in a conference call on Wednesday that newly signed defensive end Aldon Smith is in "great physical shape" and "bigger and stronger" than when he played for the San Francisco 49ers from 2011-2014 (via Charean Williams of Pro Football Talk):

yeah I remember reading about his strength & conditioning when we 1st signed him.
Like you. I am still a wait & see on the field kinda guy. (but I do have hope)

This is a huge if, but if Aldon Smith and Randy Gregory play 16 games each and play up to their talent, I believe we are the best team in the NFC

Agree, too bad the Cowboys have given us IF season a lot lately.

On paper I love this team, I'm not cashing out and t as king everything to the betting window though.
