AKB Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 4 hours ago, throwing BBZ said: Do you have any thoughts regarding why our staff and Ballard chose someone else after months of knowing and seeing him in the classroom and practice. so, I remember the 49ers doing something very similar with Shananan, and they had good success at it. At the end of the day, our TES were better than our middle-bottom WRs, I think they agreed with this and decided to cut the bottom of the WRs off. I think we also still have the chance to sign 1 more WR most likely. TBH, while it's been marked as a more pass-happy offense, I don't really think so too much. Sure we will have more inventive play calling, but I'm going to assume we might still have a run-first offense. So, in short, the bottom TEs were better, and we still have a chance to scoop someone who's been cut or waived in one of the most dense position groups in the league. A lot of these young rookie WRs come in close to the skillset of washed up, or average vets/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1959Colts Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Cowboys Shockingly Release Breakout Defender https://sportdfw.com/posts/cowboys-shockingly-release-breakout-defender-01h917hmp5fs https://sportdfw.com/posts/9-cowboys-who-will-be-cut-by-tuesday-s-roster-deadline-01h8f9gjbj5n/4 The former Florida A&M standout had an absolutely dominant season in the MEAC in 2021 (19.5 sacks), but his disappointing 2022 led to his going undrafted, The 23-year-old is still a little undersized on the edge (6-foot-4 but only 215 pounds), and his preseason appearances proved he's not ready to compete at the NFL level yet. He showed some nice pass-rush moves, but he had no solo tackles and as many missed tackles as he had assisted tackles (2 each) through his first two posteason games. With his job on the line he had an underwhelming showing again with 1 tackle and 1 assist. I know this is an unpopular pick with Cowboys fans, who largely want him to be a roster lock, but this is also a numbers game. He'd have to overtake Vellami Fehoko (a fourth-round pick) or Dante Fowler for the final spot on the depth chart, and I just don't think he's quite far along enough to do that. Land is an obvious practice squad pick, and hopefully adding some size and strength helps him reach his full potential as a viable edge defender in the pros.

Recent history, one team has been making all the right decisions and one team all the wrong ones. So, yeah, Rush is definitely going to win the Super Bowl for KC with a pick 6.
