    I somehow thought he was a good player and a special teams ace, i think he is not healthy right now, but i would somehow love to get this guy over here he is huge also 6´5 220.

    Let's learn from the Bengals and not sign an injured or injured prone player.

    Don't know much about him but if he's a special teams ace as you say it couldn't hurt to bring him in for a look seeing how bad we've been covering kicks this preseason.

    What is the chance we hire a guy to just kick the ball out of the endzone every kick? Didn't we have someone like that once?

    A lot of people were high on him coming out of FSU. He started his rookie season and was ok but has been a substitute the last three years.

    If he is currently injured I don't see the value in bringing him in. If he started his first/rookie year then played backup the last three years something tells me he's not exactly the answer we're looking for.

    If he is healthy, I like his 4.43 40. He could be a returner or a headhunter with that speed and his experience as a safety making tackles in the ACC. Dallas goes deep so it may be more lack of space than lack of talent.

    He makes a big play every now and again, but seems to get beat a lot more. His value lies more as a ST player than a defensive player. If hes hurt though, I dont really see the point to much.

    But Ireland/Sparano will probably give him at least a cursory look being a Dallas castoff.

    I dunno. We certainly have two developmental type safeties (Clemons, Jones) and maybe three if you like what you've seen out of Amaya.

    I suspect we're full up in the backup/special teamer category.
