This is my favorite signing. This one makes too much sense and he is fairly young to boot.
I was about to say the same thing. And what's my favorite thing about this signing? Anyone?

RIP Angry Simp.Very good signing, now give me Vaccaro, Reid or Tre Boston and I'd say this has somehow been a damn good free agency period.
Its a sad day.RIP Angry Simp.
I think I like happy Simp better. We need some ying to all the yang on this board.RIP Angry Simp.
Oh, its an issue alright. Has been for at least 2 years now. I don't see it getting better either.Anyone have info on Tyron Smith's back? Been wondering if this could be a real issue going forward.
No info that isn't just a fluff piece. I remember reading something by the Cowboys stating that they don't believe the back is a long term issue. But honestly, it's what I'd expect out of the Cowboys even if his back was about to explode any minute. My guess is it's something we will just have to manage the rest of his career.Anyone have info on Tyron Smith's back? Been wondering if this could be a real issue going forward.
He's been taking practices off for at least 2 seasons in an effort to rest the back.No info that isn't just a fluff piece.

Yeah I can't see how that's ever going to get better without some sort of special treatment. And if that treatment was out there you would have thought we would have done it in the last 2 years.He's been taking practices off for at least 2 seasons in an effort to rest the back.
Been wondering if it's reaching "Sean Lee" territory. To the point where he's going to be missing a couple games every season. Maybe it's time to draft a solid LT to develop behind him. With so many other needs in the roster and not much to offer in the upcoming draft, we can't grab one early. But this has to be addressed.Oh, its an issue alright. Has been for at least 2 years now.

Smith is 27 years old. What's the point in drafting someone to develop behind him when Tyron is still going to be around longer than the guy you drafted? You'd really just be drafting a guy to play 3 games a year. Which I have no problem with, obviously it cost us last year. But that's not worth premium resources either. Not unless you actually think Smith's career is done which I haven't seen that indication yet. Of course I don't really know if this back thing is degenerative. I've never heard that word associated with it.Been wondering if it's reaching "Sean Lee" territory. To the point where he's going to be missing a couple games every season.

Probably signed him specifically thinking it could be either depending on what we do in the draft. I'm sure a guard at 19 is on the table.1 year, 3.5 million apparently.
Still can't figure out whether he's being earmarked for the starting RT spot or if we still plan on taking a Hernandez or Wynn at 19 and only using him as the swing tackle.
D.J. Fluker got $3M from the Giants last year to be a swing type who started at G. It is not money that demands he really start, but it is borderline.1 year, 3.5 million apparently.

And, I'm okay with that. After watching some video on Hernandez, the man is an absolute beast. I don't think I would mind him or Wynn at 19.Probably signed him specifically thinking it could be either depending on what we do in the draft. I'm sure a guard at 19 is on the table.
