Quote ="LS14 RHINO"Yeah he's definately better than Ashton who is just a decnt squad player, he's done a pretty good job for the Cowboys this year after a poor few years at the Broncos but Tariq is only about 20 years old and will get better the more games he plays. I'm sure there'll be plenty of teams chasing him so the Cowboys will need to upgrade his contract pretty quick. I dont know why he never got a game for the Broncos when he won NYC player of the year last season.'"
It's amazing how one coach can see something in a player that another one can't, or they believe that their squad is good enough as it is. I've seen it a few times in my experience in the game. Equally it could simply be that the Cowboys wanted him and had more in the bank to make him a much better offer.
