Dallas Cowboy Marco Rivera On Espn Radio

Commenting On T.o. Right Now Live

EDIT: Recap by trickblue

Rivera:
1) All I know about the TO deal is what I read in the paper.
2) I know TO, I stayed with him in the Probowl. He is definitely a competitive player.
3) I would love to have him on this team. His problem was with his contract. He performed when he played.
4) If a team gives him a contract he likes, he will be a great asset. Wherever he plays, the team will win.
5) All I want to do is win games. If he helps us win games, that's all I care about as long as he doesn't cause problems here.
6) We have a young locker room, just a few veterans. If I have to be the guy to step up and take charge of problems in the locker room, I will do that.
7) Wherever he goes, he will get a contract he wants and he will not be a problem.
8) Most of the young guys here haven't been in football long enough to know what it takes to win a championship. A player like TO will be a good example of what it takes to go to the next level.
9) This team is gearing up and we will make a serious push this year. We were all put together last year, we will gel and are finally healthy.
10) Official workouts start Monday and we have 35 guys that are already in here working out. We will outwork every team in the NFL this year.
11) I really believe we are one impact player away from being able to win a championship this year. T.O. or Jevon Walker are two guys that have that impact.
12) I haven't spoken to Jevon recently, but with medical technology today, you can bounce back quick. His knee will not be that devastating to his career. He is a great talent and a great locker room guy.
13) If the coaches come to me, I will tell them what I am telling you. I know more about Jevon and either would be a good player.
(They read the Key quote today about Key never having a great QB) I think Drew is a pretty good QB. He can get the ball to everyone.
