Cowboys Notes

On Rob Ryan..call him ''The Dude''

On Cowboys lack of ''defense picks'' in 2011 draft..Stephen Jones..''It was by design. Our board was set up for offense. We plan to address defense in the upcoming free agency and we are not sure we are through on offense."

On Dez Bryant..He was too busy to meet with Jerry Jones but was spotted at North Park Mall, where his Bentley was double parked, buying more shoes. The Cowboys version of Imelda Marcos also posted his distaste for paying a hundred bucks for a tank of gas. Am I the only one who believes if you make 7 figures, you should own oil company stock, not bitch about gas prices?

More on Dez Bryant..You might be doomed if you adviser's first act is to get you hooked up with bling dealers. This before he had one cent of his signing bonus.
 
On Roy Williams..With no cap in 2011.. We wont  face any cap penalties from releasing him, it costs nothing at all, it's a perfect year to get rid of ridiculous contracts. Ditto to Barber..

On Draft and Character...Cowboys drafted 4 team captains..Good to see these high character guys coming in. You know team captains are going to come in and be hard working, smart, dedicated guys.

On Chapas owning Patrick Peterson..link..http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j7HclLJp_lQ  Chapas is a late round FB from Ga and Peterson is all that from LSU..Chapras..winning..

On grading 2011 draft..This from Goose Gosselin/Dallas Morning News..Grade B..best in NFC East..The Cowboys had a superb third day of this draft. Harris is a Kelvin Martin clone and the arrival of Arkin and Nagy will help Smith make the offensive line deeper and more competitive. Murray can solve a running back riddle.

On Jason Garrett..from the horses mouth/Jerry Jones..Jones told several people before the draft that the thing that has surprised him most about Garrett is that "he's more stubborn than I thought." Jerry just says so much in one sentence..

On Cowboy's Draft Philosophy..More importantly, I think that the pick signals that Garrett and the Cowboys did something very smart in this draft. They looked at needs on a big picture basis, not on a Week 1 vs. the Jets basis.

Go Cowboys..
