Why not Eric Winston?

Maybe it's just me but I completely forgot about Eric Winston as an option for us at left tackle. He still hasn't been picked up by anyone and could be a decent 1 or 2 year stop gpa player for us until we draft one.

After we sign our draft picks he could be a steal!

Thoughts?

I'm surprised he hasn't been picked up.  He's a RT, not a LT, but I figured someone would've picked him up as a stopgap or just veteran competition.  He's only 30.  Gotta be a reason for it you'd think.  Maybe teams aren't interested for whatever reason or, more likely, he and his agent are holding out for a better opportunity and more money.  He could see his value improve if a couple of OTs get hurt in training camp or pre-season.  At the end of the day, he may be able to find himself a situation where he can make more money AND skip training camp.  Win-win for him.

Eric Winston is a RT, and I'm almost certain he has never even played LT in the NFL.

      I remember the Huddle consensus over the course of last season and the previous one. Lots of Bryce is a bust, we should've drafted a 4th slot WR, should've kept Wilks, should've kept an armless Cam, etc etc. So... yea... already thought about that. I wouldn't trust the Huddle to detail my car, let alone run a multi-billion dollar professional sports team. 😛

      bold prediction, I think Mike Green will be the best pass rusher in this class, and thats even with abdul carter.  He reminds me of demarcus ware, not just in size and prowess, but even coming from a Sunbelt school (Ware from Troy, Green from Marshall).  I think he is passionate about the sport where I think Carter as the physical freak might not have the heart.  Thats the guy Im sold on and am gonna hammer the table for, I know he's not projected 8, but he is projected like 12-13, so if a slide back can happen and we still get the guy I want, I'm 100% on board. All that said, it takes 2 to tango, I think the Cowboys are the tango-er.  IMO theres a VERY good shot that Jeanty is available at 8.  Why does that matter?  Not only do the cowboys NEED a runningback (dak sucks without a run game), but MORE importantly, gee where did Jeanty play in high school.....Frisco TX, literally Dallas Metro.  Soo, RB is a position of need and the best RB and most blue chip draft selection that  could improve the offense immensly played IN dallas metro AND will be in range for them to move up and pick?  Do ya think Jerry Jones is gonna just say no to the Jersey Sales?  Jerry might have sexually assaulted a woman and attempted to prevent black people from going to school, but he's no idiot (he is).  IMO, we get a good enough package, prlly their first and third,  maybe a conditional later and we move to 12.  We get Green, they get Jeanty, everbuddy happy.
