The Cowboys are firing QB Coach Wade Wilson.

Wilson has long been considered one of the better quarterback coaches in the league. It's speculated that he and other coaches that are being let go are scapegoats for Jason Garrett.

Wilson and Rivera have never worked together but they played against each other as division rivals for several years when Wilson was with the Vikings.

Won't lie. I'd can Ken Dorsey for Wilson in a heartbeat.

Edit: My dates were off. Wilson and Rivera actually did work together for three years in Chicago (04-06). Wilson was the quarterback coach and Rivera was the defensive coordinator.

we won't.

sacred continuity.

playoffs 3 times in 4 years means you don't need to make any coaching changes and saying such makes you a fake fan or something.

Getting Newton a real quarterback coach, and one with a reputation like Wilson, would be a phenomenal move.

But you're right, we probably won't.

I agree.  Would love to have him.

      Serious question:  Why LG and not RG?  There may be something I do not know, but Hunt's contract is huge and he could be let go after this season (post june 1 cut) and it would save the Panthers a ton of money.  Extending him would be paying a G who is in his mid 30s guaranteed money (and I do not see that as a terrible thing).  So if we release him at age 31, we save $19m.  I like him, but at 31, will he be worth the mega contract?   LG Damien Lewis has actually outperformed Hunt and he is a year younger.  He would also save less vs. the cap and leave less in the dead cap pool.  While his current contract expires after the 2027 season, he is a better prospect (IMO) to extend because only 50% of his current contract was guaranteed.  Here are his contract numbers.   Now, getting to Ickey--he could want LT money if he is offered a second contract.  If we pay him LT money to play either G positions, we are likely overpaying.  Secondly, the injury he suffered could be one that limits his productivity.  Ickey was improving, but he was an average LT.  The only way I re-sign Ickey is to have him accept a G contract and make a lot of it incentive based.     I feel like I am missing something, but in my mind, Ickey was always a guard if you consider the fact that he is an average OT and would be a great G.  Is that still the case (injury)?

      Sorsby to the supplemental draft

      By UnluckyforSome · Posted

      Supplemental draft uses picks from next year. So a team were to draft him in the 1st, their upcoming 1st next draft would no longer be available. There have been some notable players that were obtained in the supplemental draft, such as Kosar. It doesn't necessarily happen every year either, and is more on a as needed basis. The gambling trouble is a big red flag for teams, and maybe pushes him down to a 4th? Not sure a team would use a 1st on him.
