Dallas D-line: deep & dangerous

From Draftsharks newsletter:

A long-time NFC personnel guy just told us he thinks the Dallas Cowboys have the deepest and most dangerous group of defensive linemen in football. “Marcus Spears, Chris Canty, and Greg Ellis are a lethal trio of ends,” he said. “Then they put DeMarcus Ware at end in the nickel, and boy, look out. Another end, Jay Ratliff out of Auburn (7th round ’05), could be a beast. And Jason Ferguson is a bull at nose tackle.” We just noticed the Cowboys have three brittle QBs leading off their schedule: Byron Leftwich, Mark Brunell, and Billy Volek. Those guys might need kevlar-fiber jerseys against Dallas.
