7 For A Tuesday
* The Cowboys will work out about 30 players in the next few days, according to the Dallas Morning News. Among those whose tires they kicked Monday was Missouri quarterback Chase Daniel, writes Todd Archer.
* Lions president Tom Lewand threw a bucket of water on the notion that Detroit might pass on the first pick in order to avoid the $50 to $60 million in bonus and salaries Mr. No. 1 likely will receive. "We don't want to comment on any specifics whether they're logical or illogical," Lewand said at Ford Field Monday according to the Detroit Free Press. (Note: Any team can pass on a pick, allowing the next team to select. The team that passed would then be on the clock again).
* The Texans would like a bigger back in this draft who can complement Steve Slaton, writes John McClain in the Houston Chronicle.
* They're getting edgy in Cleveland as the Browns are looking to move both Brady Quinn and Braylon Edwards this week, according to the National Football Post's Michael Lombardi.
* A good column in the Green Bay Press Gazette on reconsidering the real value of first-round choices by Mike Vandermause.
* The schedule comes out tonight at 7 p.m. so you can gather the whole family around the box and watch it with a big bowl of popcorn on NFL Network. Here's the strength of schedule for each team. It's based on the 2008 records of 2009's opponents, it has nothing to do with how much each schedule can bench.
* Missouri receiver Jeremy Maclin has been all over the countryside with predraft visits but one stop he won't be making is Radio City Music Hall on April 25, according to the Kansas City Star.

The Cowboys need Plaxico Burress
No one needs cancer. Not even the Cowboys...
Unless the Cowboys plan to move from the NFL to the Leavenworth Prison League they could consider Plaxico. Vick could toss him the rock while on probation.
Otherwise I think the Boys will do just fine.

After TO,Plaxico wouldn't be a cancer just a serious Flu.As long as Phillips and Romo are there,the Cowpokes aren't going anywhere except home for the playoffs.
Revan:
Home for the playoffs. Just to clarify, you mean home as in sitting on the couch watching the playoffs like the rest of us? Just making sure.
