The Cowboys WR discussion just keeps on going
All over the place we see articles about the Cowboys still needing to add another WR through a trade. Then the very next day we see articles about the Cowboys trio of young WR's (Austin, Hurd, Stanback) looking pretty good in OTA's/Minicamp and that maybe this is the season one of them finally breaks through.
So which one is it? What's the Cowboys plan on this issue? Or do they even see the issue as that big of a deal?
If you throw in the 'Will Terry Glenn be back and if so will he stay healthy?' talk and a man can go absolutely bananas just thinking about the possibilities.
We won't have the answers to those questions for a while, at least until we get a few weeks into training camp in my opinion.
In the meantime the Cowboys passing attack consists of the following weapons: Tony Romo, Terrell Owens, Jason Witten, Patrick Crayton, Marion Barber and Felix Jones.
You know, there are at least 25 other NFL teams who would give their left foot to have that posse wearing their uniforms this season.
So as far as acquiring another WR or having one of the young guys step up in '08, the only time I start worrying that either is a necessity is when the 'I' word starts getting thrown around.
Norm Hitzges did just that today on The Ticket..
Norm talks WR concerns
Yeah, I guess the injury thing scares me a little bit, but it scares every team at every position every year. There really isn't much you can do about it and you certainly aren't going to have 2 or 3 All Pro's backing up every spot on the roster.
Would I like to get a Boldin or Williams? Of course, those are guys that will help immediately and they will be here for years to come. But I really hope Jerry doesn't go after a 'Joe Horn type' if this Terry Glenn deal doesn't work itself out in time.
If it was up to me I say let's see what the young guys and Terry Glenn (if he's here) do in Training Camp and then if they are not satisfied go after a free agent WR. I am sure that a decent WR will be cut come August and I am also guessing that this player would love an opportunity to play with the Cowboys who are looked at as a Super Bowl contender.
