If you think he is a bust its probably because you are comparing his young pro career to PP7s who is a once in a lifetime guy and already an elite DB. As of now yes he has underachieved but give him time to mature. i still think he can be very good

Claiborne plays well this season while healthy. He's just been injured. I assure you the Cowboys aren't letting him go.

What makes you think he wouldn't have progressed after one season if Ryan would have stayed?


Well, Ryan's with the Saints now, and he should be abe to get Mo cheap. If he doesn't do it this offseason, Mo is probably a bust. We'll see.

Well I guess the Raiders are just a GREAT franchise too by that logic, huh?

You're not thinking clearly if you think Mo is getting traded.

I'm a cowboy fan and he has been decent when he has played. He is just injury prone and always playing hurt. That's his problem.

Alot of times it is the scheme. For instance look at Glenn Dorsey and Tyson Jackson. They were beasts in college, went to the pros and for several years they were considered busts because KC wasn't runnign a scheme that allowed them to perform well. Well Dorsey is doing well now in San Fran, and Tyson Jackson is doing well in KC with a new scheme.

Your pro team sucks. You need a scapegoat.

Yep.....your owner has turned that team you described above into a f*cking laughing stock. You Cowboy fans are too frickin' delusional to see the train wreck in Arlington.....

I don't think I would call those awful numbers for a rookie. If you do then you have no idea what the hell you are talking about, which seems appropriate for you.

First off, at least spell the name of the damn test correct, when you are trying to make fun of someone's intelligence. And what exactly does this have to do with whether or not someone is a bust?

Saints front office would veto this deal. Claiborne is not only from Louisiana but even worse, he played for LSU!

Patrick Peterson scored a 9 and Revis scored a 10... I would say they are pretty good.

It is well known that Peterson and Revis excel as a Man to Man guys and that is why, along with Claiborn, their Wonderlic scores are looked at with a grain of salt.

The cowboys are a mediocre team with a lot of problems, both on and off the field. They have no defensive identity and the front seven is a weak unit.

Mo Claiborne's injuries, and two different coordinators in two years are his problems.

He has work to do but It's too early to tell.
