I heard Cooley say during an interview that he was called upon to block Strahan on 12 different occasions, sometimes one-on-one which didn't go too well toward the end. His real value is as a receiver. Gibbs must come up with a way to pass that load to someone else, perhaps Yoder or one of the WRs cracking back on the DE. I know we have OL injuries, but I rarely see Jason Garrett keeping Whitten in to pass block.
