I didn't even know he was a FA.

Free agent FB Jed Collins will visit the Cowboys on Thursday.

With Jerome Felton and Henry Hynoski off the market, Collins is the top fullback available. He struggled blocking for Joique Bell in Detroit last season, but would be a solid addition for the Cowboys' run game.

I'd expect us to address it late in the draft. Read something about us not pursuing him in an effort to get younger at the position.

I will miss the mullet. Well, Schledge had no mullet, so I guess I'm fine if the new guy doesn't have one.

Ok, so the new guy needs to either have a sweet fucking mullet or breaks fucking opponents' face masks. Deal?

We are a passing team that doesn't need a FB......We don't have the offensive line to run behind to begin with. So you put a FB on the roster and all he will be is a decoy......Don't pay money to a decoy when any OL or DL lined up in the backfield can do it.

Refririgertor Perry, Hell J.J. Watt plays TE nowadays......Just leave the Full Back posistion out of the equation.....Same with Long snapper while I'm digging a hole.....Hell that's two positions anyone on a active roster can do it...

Hell Suh was put in to kick a FG one time and clanked one off the up right just as good as anyone of the best FG kickers in the league.

Nope, I'm telling you we already got him on the roster.

Detroit Lions: Emil Igwenagu

Word is (was) that he almost bumped Collins off the roster when we claimed him off waivers last season. The coaching staff is supposed to like him quite a bit.

I'd also expect Chad Abram to be brought back to compete in camp...

Contestant, "Pat, I'd like to buy another vowel". Pat, "you're fucking stupid"

If he's the guy great, if not who cares. We are talking about a FB here. Not the most difficult position to fill on the roster.

What about that big ole cornfed mofo from Bama? We could probably snag him with one of our sweet 7th round picks

Beast has blocked five punts. He is a late round to UDFA FB and surely a ST contributor.

I was big on Chad Abram last year. I wanted him to beat out Collins. I'd prefer to just roll with a FB competition with Chad and that Emil kid. The FB is not utilized in Lombardi's scheme much anywho.
