Cowboys offseason moves

most likely, with the way were playin, we arent gonna go anywhere in the playoffs, so what should we do in the offseason? list your top 5 things for this offseason

1. get rid of Terrell Owens
2. get a decision from Parcells, if he wants to come back or not
3. resign Greg Ellis
4. have a good Free agency
5. have a good draft

thats what I think we need to do, how bout other Cowboy fans, what should we do.

I don't know how much help can be found in the draft or free agency, but this is my top five.

1. Address the offensive line. This should be the top priority. And I don't want anyone that used to play for Parcells in the past or had his dad play for Parcells.
2. Dump TO and get any replacement.
3. Find players that can play the 3-4 or dump the 3-4.
4. Figure out what to do with the safties. Roy Williams is getting paid like the best around, but the league has figured out that he can't cover anybody.
5. Get an answer to the Parcells question.

If I were Parcells, I would seriously consider this, moving Roy to OLB, I am serious, he would get some good pressure on the QB, but I forgot about the O-line thats top priority, and I heard DeMarcus on a post game interview, he said he liked the 4-3 better than the 3-4, he says he gets better pressure from the 4-3, so thats something to think about if your the tuna.

That isn't going to happen. Mickey Spagnola talked about this a couple weeks ago. The team thinks he's too small and not good enough getting past blockers to be an effective linebacker. As good as he is against the run as a SS, they don't think he could handle playing closer to the line since he's not good at shedding blockers at all.

I have also thought this would be a good idea, but you are right Troy he does not handle blocks well. This is very unfortunate becasuse he can hit and play the run, but he gets burnt way to often.

I dont know what were gonna do with Roy, he really needs to improve his coverage, I hate to say this, I love Roy, even being a sucklahoma sooner, we need to cut ties if this keeps happening.

We can't just let him go, because he will come back to bite us in the butt. They just need to figure out how to use him. If the corners were better we would not need him to always come help in coverage.

Newman is one of the very best corners in the league. You can't really ask him to do more to cover up for Williams. Henry isn't that bad either.

Sure, it hurts that the free safeties suck, but Williams also has to do his part. Even with the very best free safety in the league, Williams would still have to spend a lot of time in coverage for his side of the field. It's to the point now where teams are throwing right at him over and over.

Here's a move: Zimmer left the team to go to Atlanta. Good for him. He'll probably have a lot of success switching back to the 4-3.

1) Keep TO
2) Fire BP
3) Hire Ron Rivera or Rex Ryan
4) Hire the LB Coach from San Diego as our DC
5) Hire an OC TBD

6) Get Steinbach in FA
7) Get Adelius Thomas in FA
8) Get Blalock or Okoye in the 1st
9) Get Gaither or BPA in the 2nd (Flip from 1st round pick)
10) Fix the Secondary

I would love to have Adalius Thomas, would rather have Rex Ryan, hes blitzes more that Rivera does, I dont know about the pick, its is either Justin or Okoye, but I would rather have Justin, cause hes a Horn, and I think he could be the next Steve Hutchinson, and heres another devolopment, now that Cowher is out on coach FA, do you think, if Parcells leaves, that we could go after him, I would love him as our coach, what I saw from T.O., in the presser after the Sea loss, he showed me a diffrent side, the teammate side, so I might want him back, I would want the OC from San Diego, whats his name? and I would love jared Gaither, 6'7'', 330 pounds, could be a beast in the NFL, and the secondary, I would release Henry, hes done nothing for us, someone needs to help Roy out, maybe hire Darren Woodson as the DB coach, Watkins is coming along, and get a nice CB in FA, maybe go after Nate Clements, or Asante Smauel, for OL, maybe Steinbach, Derrick Dockery, resign Patrick Crayton, and thats about sums my offseason up.

I think it's unanimous on TO. Really amazing, isn't it? The guy has a Pro Bowl year, but has worked himself out of two playoff contending teams and will attract limited attention in free agency. Bizarro-world.

Earlier in the season, BP started to talk about his health. The other times he left his teams, he ginned up the "health" stuff prior. It may be that he was just tired of dealing with TO. Dunno. Regardless, I think he has more to give and can build a winner. He may stick it out one more year because I think he wants to finish what he started with Romo. For a guy that never played the position, he really understands QB development.

Roy Williams, as other stated can't shed blocks. In fact, he still gets and stays blocked by WRs. Moving him closer to the line will only make things worse. On top of that, he gets overly frustrated when he's blocked. Just not in his mentality. Nah, he's got the talent to play safety. The Boys just need to find ways to help him in the pass situations.

A LB hitting the market next year, under the radar, is Juqua Thomas of the Eagles. Although he plays with his hand down, he's a more natural fit for the OLB in a 3-4 defense. The only other team sniffing in his direction (from a very credible source) is Pittsburgh. He's young and physical and no injury history to worry about.

I think the biggest area is the OL. I don't things are critical on the line, but the Boys have a good deal of talent in the other positions. Maybe they need to look at developing WRs, but it's not a pressing need. Gotta stock the lines, like Philly did. Its kept them in the winning column for half a decade. Didn't win the SB, of course, but they're always in the mix. Heck, McNabb goes down and the line can shift to power run blocking from a pass happy offense. You don't get that versitility and long term success from occassional drafting.

I dont think that plasticface will admit his mistake, but I am on the fence about T.O.

I heard a intresting thing from Chris Landry on a local radio show, he said, which is true, that Roy is a in the box SS, not a cover 2 guy, and he was put in bad positions, and I agree with that.

I want to go after B-More's Adalius Thomas, unless they re-sign him, hes the perfect 3-4 LB, and I think we might be playing more 4-3 next year, cause DeWare said he gets more pressure from the 4-3, and if DeWare says he get more pressure from the 4-3, then you need to play more of it.

I do to, we need either Levi Brown, the big Tackle from Penn state, or Justin Blalock, the best G in college football, who I want, need more Guard help than Tackle help, imo, and I think the defensive line needs help too, cause I am tired of seeing Marcus Spears lag around, needs to lose some weight, Canty will be good imo, and we also need a NT, cause Ferguson isnt getting any younger.

Henry seems to be a hit or miss. Either he covers like a blanket. Or he gets burnt all day.

owens81 is an unknown quantity at this point
Dallas Cowboys keep TO

it aint his fault we feel apart at the end. any1 who wants to get rid of TO is clueless about football. even if he drops 2 balls a game he still gets double teamed and is always a deep threat, plus he played most of the year with a injured finger, if we get rid of TO we better steal chad johnson or marvin harrision over nite, we need TO case closed, and if u think different u aint thinkin. wut we need is line help. o lone and d line. we should draft some o line men. d line we will get dwight freeney and play him opposite of beware of D ware(my boy). then i think we should pick up nate clements get some help in the secondary and a great special teams player. then even though i love parcells i think it could be better if he leaves cuse hes cost us games with his conserative, playing calling aka running to much in 4th quarters, throwing 2 yd passes on 3rd and long. i love parcells if he stays i'll be happy but if hes goes i think we'll be aight.
