You can't argue that even one of those names don't belong on that list. All 5 could be a possiblity.

If I had to argue one of them, it would be Dez.

I would guess the main reason Ray Sherman is no longer in Dallas is because of the points you mentioned. Dez, for as talented a guy as he is, what he needed last year was a kick in the ass and a reality check. Not a friend and enabler.

Each time he was late for a meeting, he should have been benched for the following game. If you slap these guys on the wrist too often, they figure out it doesn't hurt anything like a swift kick in the ass.

I'm really banking on Jimmy Robinson to be the type of position coach that'll teach Dez the importance of being a professional.

But yeah, there is potential for him to be benched. It should have happened last year a few times.

Saw Dez' picture on the top of the article.. stopped reading right there.

Then decided to read just for the fun of it, and saw you actually were serious. I've heard no one compare him to TO at this point, and to do so would be a huge reach at this point in time. On the same level, neither Mayock or Kiper suggested Tyron would be anything close to a bust.

I haven't heard anyone say he's TO, but I did see him come unglued at least once on the sideline last year. It's not out of the realm of possibilities. Combine that with his maturity level and lack of common sense. Who knows what's in the cards for him.

Like I said, I can't look at that list and say for sure that one of those guys absolutely won't be benched at some point next year. It's hard to say. Maybe a different organization would be more likely to bench a player like Bryant. Dallas just doesn't seem to bench players for stuff like that, they rarely even bench players for poor play, and when they do, it's usually a year overdue.

With that being said, I did say I'd start with Dez if I was going to pick a player on that list that doesn't belong.

Do we know what Dez was actually saying on the sideline, or what he was upset about? Because unless someone from the team comes out and says otherwise, i saw a passionate kid who wants to win football games and was sick of losing. Not someone who was crying that he didn't get his quota of balls thrown his way yet. Garrett said he reminded him of Michael Irvin.. i think that's a far better comparison, especially from someone who has been close to both players.



BTW.. liking the new banner.

I know, it's sick. He's going to do a skin for the entire forum, too.
