Do you think all his former cowboys players are a good think for our roster and why ?

fastball83 · 03-15-2008, 08:29 AM

First, I have all faith in parcells judgement and in his staff, but IMO 10 or 11 former cowboys on our roster isn't a good thing and I want to explain MO here :

1/ the didn't win anything last year and many of them are scheduled to be special teams players........so why not choose 2 or 3 cowboys and 2 or 3 patriots special teamer (to upgrade our roster and downgrade theirs) ?

2/ too much formers players stay around them and don't gel with others.

3/ not very much talent in this group but it's only MO.

what about that IYO guys ?

I can see your point. But its not like we were that good anyways. And we still have the draft to go. So its possible that some of those players may not make it. And besides we didn't get the guy that has kept them out of the super bowl the last 2 years. Some Romo guy I think it was.

could be or it could the SOS (part II) experiment with the Dead Skins.

Other then Smiley I really doubt any of those guy will be on the roster in three years.

NJFINSFAN1 · 03-15-2008, 09:02 AM

I think he is laying a foundation to build on with the draft.

Our special teams will be twenty times better and that will help us greatly.

And it made us much younger!

perfect1 · 03-15-2008, 09:16 AM

The group is young and the coaching stagg is familiar with them. I also have faith in Bill, I mean we arnt winning the superbowl this year but a major improvement is on the way

What are you talking about we are 80/1 favorites

RonnieBrownTown · 03-15-2008, 09:30 AM

I think Bill Parcels knows what he is doing. Listen we might have been the best 1-15 team in the NFL even though a lot of people think we dont need to improve with that good of a record but I think adding these player is a good thing and every one will gel

Dude are you expecting to win it all this year or what? We are building from the ground up and it is going to get alot better " relaxe"

dlockz · 03-15-2008, 09:34 AM

I think most of these Cowboys will be gone in a year if not sooner, we have signed not one cowboy of significance. He is bringing in guys he is familiar with and some special teamers but none are very good at playing any true position as of yet.

NYPhinFan · 03-15-2008, 09:39 AM

not including Jason Ferguson of course when you talk of someone with no true position.

DefensiveEnd76 · 03-15-2008, 09:44 AM

All I know is, we've signed enough special teams players. We need much more then a team full of another teams backups and scrubs.

I agree, you bring in the people that know your system to help install the offense, defense, and special teams. A few will stay other than smiley, but not many.

Dolfan81 · 03-15-2008, 09:56 AM

i think its a good thing, they know what it feels like to win, most of the guys on are team dont nknow what that feels like, there are only a couple of players on are team that have face a winning season with us and i think taylor is the only 1 that has made it to the playoffs, its important to have some knowledge like that on the team
