Sephiroth Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 I'm not usually a "DG YOU IMGRATE" kinda guy, but is he worth a look since Martinez is out for the year, or is he washed up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like under 2 million cheap. If he wants to sign here for the vet minimum then yeah I’m all for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herc Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 Thought came to my mind too. Apparently he’s lost a step already Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazedDogs Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 I've heard like five different reasons he's been cut, I'm not sure if anybody outside the Dallas org knows whats up. I've seen.... - Its just a cap move man, he got passed on the depth chart, but he's still good! Sign him, imgrates! - he can't cover for shit! - he is a great cover linebacker, but he can't tackle for shit! - he is a high character guy, but his body is failing him. - he's in great shape, but his ego has grown too large for the Dallas locker room.

They think he’s overdue for an injury so they got rid of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueInCanada Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 He's washed up honestly unless his knee bounces back next year. At best he's a rotational LB who can't cover and doesn't have the same speed pre injury. At worst he's a liability. He wasn't starting and his production has taken a massive decline. It's a hard pass unless he's willing to take vet minimum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmenroc Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 I don't know about you all...but I really like his effort. He had a lot of positives and we'll look at the tape to clean up the negatives Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tempest Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 I thought he did well considering the limited time he had to pickup the playbook. Sure he had problems shedding blockers, he did make some nice stops and while in coverage was in the vicinity to help bring down the ball carrier. He might not be the player he used to be and yet better than what we have been fielding without Martinez. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
