Hello folks!!

Yes Glover is a beast inside, one of the very few DT's that can get pressure on the QB not just plug the gap.

He did his best as a NT in the 3/4 scheme that Parcells prefers, and while he did well, he got worn down near the last quarter of the year.

His problem in the 3/4 is that he would get led inside and turned and the RB would gash us up the middle. Not all year just at the end.

For a Guy to play NT after years at DT and the job he did was incredible.

Dallas cannot afford him in all likelihood. They have Ferguson locked up -a traditional 3/4 NT who plugs but doesn't get any QB pressure - and a couple of interesting Rookies at NT T Johnson is one.

I don't see Ellis going anywhere. He is under contract and is an ideal third down pass rusher when we switch to a 4/2/4.

DE in a 3/4 isn't his thing, and he has lost a few steps since that pursuit fumble someone mentioned. He is undersized as a 3/4/ end and he is slowing down as a 4man DE. No one is going to trade anything for him, and he isn't going to whine his way out of Big D.
