ORLANDO SCANDRICK RUMORS

Orlando Scandrick refuses to move to safety for Cowboys

The Cowboys are refusing to move disgruntled cornerback Mike Jenkins, who lost his starting job this offseason when the Cowboys signed Brandon Carr and drafted Morris Claiborne. They have ignored trade requests from the Colts and the Lions. One of the reasons for this, according to NFL.com, is because the Cowboys want to use their extra depth at cornerback to counter their lack of...

Cowboys CB Orlando Scandrick Against Hybrid Safety/Corner Role

Orlando Scandrick has heard the notion that he could be converted into a hybrid cornerback/safety so the Cowboys can get him on the field more. He doesn't want to hear it. "Not happening," Scandrick told Tim McMahon of ESPNDallas.com. Folks around the Cowboys aren't so sure. The team wants to get their best players on the field. That likely means at least one of...

Dallas Cowboys’ Orlando Scandrick Content With “Glass Half-Full” Position

Dallas Cowboys cornerback Orlando Scandrick isn’t worth a six-year, $28.2 million contract, especially such a deal that includes $10 million guaranteed. He went from being the Cowboys’ slot (or No. 3) cornerback to being the fourth player at the position this off-season and he knows he’s lucky to be in such a fortunate position. For whatever reason, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones...

Dallas Cowboys looking to turn the ‘Tide’ in the 2012 Draft

Since 2008, the Dallas Cowboys have drafted a total of nine defensive backs.  However, it would seem that these picks have rendered little result.  Firstly, only two of those nine DBs remain on the roster today; Mike Jenkins and Orlando Scandrick, both from the 2008 draft.  Secondly, the Dallas passing defense has ranked 5th, 20th, 26th

Dallas Cowboys Free Agents: Cowboys Are Cornering the Market on Former Fifth-Round Picks

Brandon Carr is the new cornerback for the Dallas Cowboys. This post is not a complaint about the Dallas Cowboys free agents signed so far. They generally make sense and have filled some needs on both sides of the ball. The money involved is what does not make quite as much sense. Jerry can spend his money how he chooses, of course, but it is everyone’s business how much...

Jones doesn’t regret locking up Scandrick, vows to ‘use him right’ next season

INDIANAPOLIS – Cowboys owner Jerry Jones says he has no regrets over giving slot cornerback Orlando Scandrick a five-year, $27 million extension last summer. Logging seven starts, Scandrick paid Jones back with an uneven year. But Jones said he’s still very high on the Boise State alum. “He’s a real value to us (as a slot defender),” Jones said Friday. “Was he challenged...

Jerry Jones Calls Out Orlando Scandrick, Cowboys Coaches for Dumb Penalties

Give the Cardinals credit for clawing their way back against the Cowboys on Sunday and coming away with a tough overtime victory, but an argument can certainly be made that Dallas gave the game away.  If you are looking for a scapegoat, look no further than head coach Jason Garrett for icing his own kicker [...]

Jones calls out Scandrick

GLENDALE, Ariz. – Orlando Scandrick insists he didn’t commit a costly penalty late in regulation in the 19-13 overtime loss to Arizona. But according to the man who signs his checks, there was never any doubt a flag should have been flown. Scandrick was called for an illegal block in the back on a punt return twice. The second flag hurt big time because it negated Dez Bryant’s...

Scandrick defensive about play

IRVING – Cowboys cornerback Orlando Scandrick admitted after Sunday’s 27-24 overtime win at Washington he played poorly. Two days later, though, he sang a different tune. “I made two bad plays out of 74 plays and all of a sudden I played bad? Whatever,” Scandrick said. “People are going to say what they’re going to say.” So what happened to his harsh self-assessment...
