DALLAS COWBOYS:TERRENCE CODY, DT, ALABAMA

December 15, 2009

TCodyAt first glance the Cowboys don’t appear to have any major, glaring holes on their depth chart. This is especially true after the emergence of Miles Austin at wide receiver. With that being the case one must look ahead and forecast future problem areas and their defensive line stands out above the rest. Even though he’s done an admirable job Jay Ratliff has never been an ideal fit at nose tackle in a 3-4 scheme and with Marcus Spears set to become a free agent next offseason the Cowboys might have to bring in some reinforcements. Alabama’s Terrence “Mount” Cody is a 6-5, 365 pound load in the middle and even though he is strictly a one-dimensional run-stopper he has the ability to be absolutely dominant in that capacity.  There are serious concerns about Cody’s conditioning and he won’t be a fit for everyone but with so many teams now featuring a “30” front it’s hard to imagine him getting out of the first round next April. With Cody at nose tackle Dallas could kick Ratliff back outside to his more natural position at defensive end. The Cowboys could still use some more offensive line depth too, especially at tackle, but after recently giving both Flozell Adams and Marc Colombo sizeable new contracts that probably isn’t a 1st Round priority.
