Maybe they're confident because we have that mini camp stud Crable?

Though I am sure somebody will say that the Pats saying they are not interested is a smokescreen and the trade will surely take place within a week. |

Turns out Calvin Watkins is the NFL beat writer on a Dallas paper, so he's got cred on Cowboys news. New journalism - can't tell the players without a scorecard.:D |
Re: Cowboys are shopping LB Gregg Ellis and the Pats are not interested
Why would the Pats want to deal with this....they have plenty of picks in the 2009 NFL draft and will be addressing the OLB position then.
Oopsie....my bad. |
Re: Cowboys are shopping LB Gregg Ellis and the Pats are not interested
im assuming this guy is an OLB.....
can he rush the passer? if so, can he play cogerage and set the edge? |
Re: Cowboys are shopping LB Gregg Ellis and the Pats are not interested
I thought he was pretty good... I think the Pats are expecting him to get cut, and then hopefully might make a move.
6'6" 262 3-4 OLB 2008 - 16 games - 8 sacks - 36 tackles 2007 - 13 games - 12.5 sacks - 31 tackles |
Re: Cowboys are shopping LB Gregg Ellis and the Pats are not interested
If they didn't trade for the cheaper Burgess why would they trade for the older, more expensive Ellis, and possibly unfamiliar with the system Ellis?
