As a Cowboys fan, I’m surprised, but I like the cut. Even if they did spend a draft pick on him, they only have so much roster spots, so it’s nice to see them disregarding that and keeping the best players.

No wonder the Cowboys are the Jets of the NFC. Why release these names early? Leaking out info, ever heard the term “loose lips sink ships”? Looks like the ‘Boys are in for a third place finish.

Maybe Coale passes waivers and goes to the practice squad, he would be primed to step up if one of the other guys goes down for the year. Cross your fingers!

Kiper called Coale his Cowboys sleeper in the latest issue of ESPN magazine.

Little surprised at Colae but with injury knew he was behind the competition. Some of these listed will be on the practice squad if they clear waivers.

As far as Leary goes, he flashed at the beginning of camp but tailed off significantly. The $214,000? So what. The Eagles guaranteed $300K of Matt McBriar’s salary (the reason he said he signed with them instead of Dallas) and they cut him.

Hamilton is still raw an his only ‘skill’ is a decent pass rush. He wasn’t very good on Special Teams, didn’t play the run very well, and his pass rush was inconsistent. I’m sure the Cowboys would like to have kept him on the 53, but the totality of his development doesn’t allow it.

Sure, he has potential, but teams need more than that to justify a roster spot.

Albright can play all four LB positions and is a standout special teamer. His versatility put him on the final 53

I think Hamilton should of been kept over Albright, but hell im just a fan, also i liked Coale alot but that injury really slowed him down, still glad to see Dwayne Harris on the club tho

Why is everyone blasting Jerry? I’m sure its Jason and the position coaches making most of these decisions? As for bashing Dez, the story had not been written he could become all pro, Quincy was progressing probably no more than a T Jack though but he got derailed by Cocaine not lack of talent. Jerry also was ok with keeping undrafted Romo and Austin around to develop, he knows a lot more about football than people give him credit for.

Kinda of surprised about Hamilton, he will end up playing well – maybe practice squad. I’m glad Chapas is gone.

Lots of teams wanted Leary, dude. It was a bidding war. Didn’t work out, but it’s only $300K.

If they did cut Adrian Hamilton than Jerry really is an idiot! That kid has real skill.

Can’t make the club from the tub.

They didn’t see Cole Beasley having the preseason he had, plus Dwayne Harris and Kevin Ogletree. That made Coale expendable.

A little surprised Lemon missed the cut after his Pick-Six last night.

I really am not surprised that Jerry guaranteed Ron Leary money.

While he is among the five best Marketer’s in the Country(as good or better than Trump), he doesn’t know squat about Football.

Never has, never will!
Remember Quincy Carter, Jerry’s QB of the future? Or check out #88, who a majority of NFL teams would not touch due to “character issues”.
A really knowledgeable Football would have known better on all accounts.

Great owner, terrible GM!

Kind of sad Coale didn’t work out. He was my pet cat this offseason, but that injury really hurt his chances. Meanwhile Beasley showed up out of nowhere and filled the role Coale was drafted for (small, speedy guy with good hands who is always. open.)

It’d be nice if we could land him on the practice squad, but I’m sure another team will snatch him up.
