Post-cut Guards, who will we pick up?

Recommended Posts

Many of you will remember that around this time last year a thread popped up stating that the Buffalo Bills were stacked at DT, and that we should look at their roster for an upgrade at our weakest position.  I searched for that thread with no luck, if that was you speak up, and link that thread because you deserve credit.

 

We all know that Dwan Edwards has been a good player for us.

 

With that said, what teams are stacked at guard?  Which teams have a young draft pick looking to supplant the veteran on their line? 

 

 

Talk amongst yourselves...

At this point I dont know if we are looking more at guard or tackle or a tweener that  can play both positions.I would imagine they would come from a team with a stacked roster like the 49er.

 But really lack the knowledge to form any conclusions. I'm hoping for a RT upgrade more than RG. Bell gets beat like a drum where I track G-Will making solid blocks on the same plays

 

I concur 100%. Seems doubtful that they are ready to give up on Bell yet imo, so I see even less of a shot at them replacing Williams. Also Amini still needs to take the next step and show some improvement this year as well.

I was looking around at other teams rosters. Cowgirls had something like 16 lineman in camp. Not that that's the answer but there will be a ton of them that hit the market. I think we need at least 2 which means tough cuts (maybe Tauren Poole and joe Adams, pilares) and some not so tough ones like Jimmy Clausen and sione Fua.

The Cowboys OLine is in BIG TROUBLE.....and they are looking to add someone.

 

The guys they have in camp are barely camp fodder.

Like I said , it might not be the answer but there are gonna be guys out there is the point I was trying to make .

 

I agree with your point 100%....just pointing out that I don't think anyone wants any cast off from the Cowboys.

 

There WILL be solid vets in the final cuts....I just hope we go after at least one of them.

    • I don't think it was fear of the unknown because he tried to hide the extent of the injuries that made him drop. After the drop, the reports I heard were that teams knew what was wrong with his knee and it was something similar to another athlete from a few years ago (honestly don't remember if it was even a football player).  That it was basically one of those things where he should be fine for a while, there isn't a huge concern of immediate injury risk.   But what he has going on with his knee is something that is degenerative and there's little chance he'll be able to play more than 5 or so years on it before he won't be able to play anymore. So basically it was teams knowing if they draft him, he's probably going to be only a rookie contract player and even if he's great, you might not be able to get use out of him on a second contract.  Which in turn makes the drop make sense, but I'm kinda surprised some contending team didn't take him late in the 1st, hoping he'd put them over the top on a SB run but then not even have to worry about giving him a big contract in 4 years too.
    • Depends if they see the writing on the wall with their roster and contracts and decide to bite the bullet and begin a complete rebuild and roster overhaul.  I have no clue why some franchises (IE us) refuse to do this and keep half assing trying to win 8 games or so.  Do it correctly, take your lumps and build a contender.  We shall see what loomis decides.
    • Each team plays 17 games.  I do not see why they don't just have each team play one international game per year.  Neutral site game, 8 home, 8 away.
