Justin Rodgers info
 

Hey Cowboys fan here. I would like to know some info on this kid is he any good or could you guys care less to see him go.

Oh and by the way it's gonna be Cowboy/Patriots in the Superbowl.

I think we all have a ton of faith that Belichick knows what he's doing, but a lot of us are disappointed because we REALLY liked what we saw from Justin Rogers this pre-season. Our disappointment - or, at least, mine - is mitigated somewhat by the knowledge that Rogers didn't necessarily get caught up in a numbers game here. There was a spot available if Belichick really-really wanted him. Clearly he didn't.

Still, he's a nice player, IMO. Congrats.

I agree...disappointed...where does he seem on the Cowboy depth chart now? More as a developmental player?? Do they have others like him in the mix??

Re: Justin Rodgers info
 

I wasn't disappointed. Sure he made some good plays, but he was this years flavor of the month for preseason like Patrick Cobbs has been and many others. Good luck with him and hopefully he pans out but I'll take AD.

Re: Justin Rodgers info
 

well pats726 he is on are 53 and I think he is going to play a pretty decent role because we are still not sure about Greg Ellis' leg injury, and if Demarcus Ware got hurt we'd be in trouble.

But is he more of a pure pass rusher or more of a run stopping linebacker??

Friend,

You've got someone even better headed down to Dallas in the next coupla weeks. He's a kid by the name of Albert Breer. He's a sports writer, and a damned fine one at that. In fact, he's had one of the best columns going with his "tale of the tape" reports.

Thing is, the kid really knows his stuff, and he's not afraid to tell it as he sees it. He's very fair, and extremely knowledgeable about football. Add to that that his writing is very readable, very enjoyable, and you're going to have a real treat to read during the week.

He was quite popular hereabouts, and, fwiw, I personally hope that whoever is responsible for losing his servoces to the Boston Herald gets a swift kick in the rear, along with a pink slip to the face.

Respects,

You've got a solid 6th round OLB prospect, who is a pretty good special teamer. He isn't a run-stopper. He hasn't the body or the experience.

Almost all posters here expected him to make the 53 man squad, based on his pre-season performance. We think that you got a good developmetal player. But he isn't replacing Ware anytime soon.

Re: Justin Rodgers info
 

I too thought Rogers would make the 53 as the 4th OLB. He'll contribute on special teams this year and will get some downs as a situational pass-rusher. If his strength improves, he could develop into a weak-side starter in 3-4 years.

Disappointed is a word being tossed around a lot here, and it fits: I was sorry to see him go.

Re: Justin Rodgers info
 

in 3-4 years? isn't that quite a long time?

Re: Justin Rodgers info
 

Actually, Rogers stinks.

For the good of the Cowboys, you should start a drive to get Rogers released ASAP. :D
