I thought Rolando McClain quit football.


I bet like half of them are DWI's.

Like 4 guys were charged from the sex boat thing.

Then there was that Adrian Peterson arrest for being a scary looking dude.

It's pretty much all DUIs, the Sex Boat, and Bryant McKinnie

Ozzie Newsome is really good at getting teams to trade 6ths for players who would otherwise be cut.

Excellent news for the Cowboys fans: They've traded for an LB to fix the defense.

" Dallas traded 6th-rd pick for LB Rolando McClain and Baltimore's 7th-rd pick, per source"

Hey now, you take this Rolando McClain. Look at that guy. That right there is unfiltered enthusiasm, like a ray of sunshine into a locker room. I'm telling you, that can be channeled into a winning, can-do attitude.

That is precisely what this team needs. This, gentlemen, is clearly a Right Kinda Guy (RKG).

It's not Ernie Sims so this is a win in my book.

You do realize last year he signed with the Ravens then promptly retired and didnt even go to training camp. Then this year he said he would give it a shot then re-retired less than a week later (I think?)?

Slow as in dumb or is he actually slow now too? I thought he was supposed to be awesome back when he was drafted. Plus, you know, Al Davis jokes.

Rolando failed his conditioning test a few months ago and then retired again. I have no idea how that trade worked.

It'll turn out that the Cowboys accidentally traded a 6th round pick for a 7th straight up.

He wasn't a great athlete. He was supposed to have all the intangibles like leadership and always being in the right place at the right time. Wrong on both counts. He's a terrible prospect, and given that football is like a hobby to him or w/e, it's probably not going to get better.

Yeah, one of the major knocks on him coming out was that he didn't have NFL speed. People just assumed his ability to be where he needed to be would make up for it. Not-so-much.

Man if I ever visit Al Davis's grave I'm going to tell him I'm disappointed in him for that pick. Dance with who brung ya!

At best he's a SILB in a defense where he's like the 13th most talented player.
