Good call spdogo


There is a lot of information going around the internet these days about Finnegan, including the claim that he is strictly a slot corner in Tennessee. I can tell you after watching much of his season this week that this is just not true. Yes, he does play in the slot a fair amount, but in normal personal packages, he is out on the edge all by himself doing what corners do. He played more than any Tennessee defender, so to compare his 1142 snaps with Orlando Scandrick's 679 as I have seen done this week is just crazy talk. Yes, he will play in the slot a lot. But, he can and will also play out wide and handle himself just fine.

That's not going to make him any bigger. Doesn't fit Ryan's D.

Sounds like the going rate for Laurent Robinson is up to $6 million per year. Don't look for the Cowboys to match that.

Confusing your intended audience tends to happen when you source grab.

One of my favorite players in this crop is Carr. Big upgrade for Cowboys. If Jenkins can get back to his old ways, good there with Scandrick

Is there a stud safety available in free agency that I'm not aware of?

And don't say Roid Achilles from DC.
