I hate to admit it, but Dallas' defense is going to be downright scary next season. I don't spot a single area of need on the Boys D and they have a lot of playmakers/intimidators.
Their projected starting lineup is as follows:
LDE - Marcus Spears
NT - Jason Ferguson
RDE - Chris Canty
OLBs - Al Singleton, Demarcus Ware
ILBs - Bradie James, Akin Ayodele
CBs - Terrance Newman, Anthony Henry
FS - Ken Hamlin
SS - Roy Williams
I agree for sure. AND they just hired as their head coach a D-Coordinator who had a scary unit of his own in San Diego the past few seasons. Our offense will be no slouch, so I think the Skins-Cowboys games this year are going to be super competitive and really fun to watch.

Au contraire mon ami.
LDE - Marcus Spears - somewhat of a bust as his 1st round draft position should mean more production out of him. The hope is that the one gap nature of the phillips 3/4 will help this softie.
NT - Jason Ferguson - Love him. We have no back up for him tho..
RDE - Chris Canty - Great 4th round pick up - Run stopping animal. Limited pass rush
OLBs - Al Singleton - will probably get cut in TC depending on Ellis' achilles recovery and where they are going to put Bobby Carpenter.
Demarcus Ware - Love him.
ILBs - Bradie James - Can't take on Guards (a must as a 3/4 ilb) can't cover the flat. Signed a big contract in the 2006 off season. Not looking good.
Akin Ayodele - Love him
CBs - Terrance Newman, Anthony Henry - Solid. I hope Henry stays healthy this year.
FS - Ken Hamlin - is he a Coverage fs? can he play center fielder?
SS - Roy Williams - Just has to be better in coverage. Even a SS needs to cover once in awhile...

Well, you made me feel better. I'm certainly not going to argue with a Cowboys fan about how good their defense is.

Well, they certainly improved their safety situation with this signing, but--if anything--deep coverage is going to be even more of a glaring weakness now than before.
