Gifford's got a decent shot at hitting at least the practice squad. Good athlete, good size and specs for his position in the NFL and at least polished enough to get by on the field and definitely a good enough athlete to contribute on special teams

Luke Gifford is a Cowboy.

I'm glad I could contribute.
Maybe he can get traded to a real team at some point, not that I care about the NFL.
Wait, you mean to tell me that the Cowboys are still a thing? Whod'a thunk.
Nah, he's right where he needs to be.
The Cowboys LBing corp is one of the deeper groups in the NFL.
They play a 4-3 which means they might keep between 5 and 7 players. Lee, Smith, Thomas and Vander Esch are locks.
Interesting to me that there are 4 rookies - 3 of them from the B1G.
| Andrew Dowell | 45 | LB | 6-0 | 225 | 22 | R | Michigan State |
| Luke Gifford | 57 | LB | 6-3 | 243 | 23 | R | Nebraska |
| Nate Hall | 43 | LB | 6-2 | 224 | 23 | R | Northwestern |
| Sean Lee | 50 | LB | 6-2 | 245 | 33 | 10 | Penn State |
| Justin March-Lillard | 53 | LB | 6-0 | 222 | 26 | 5 | Akron |
| Justin Phillips | 44 | LB | 6-0 | 224 | 23 | R | Oklahoma State |
| Kyle Queiro | 41 | LB | 6-2 | 230 | 24 | 1 | Northwestern |
| Jaylon Smith | 54 | LB | 6-2 | 245 | 24 | 3 | Notre Dame |
| Joe Thomas | 48 | LB | 6-1 | 232 | 28 | 5 | South Carolina State |
| Leighton Vander Esch | 55 | LB | 6-4 | 256 | 22 | 2 | Boise State |
PS we hate the Cowboys except for Malik Colling, Randy Gregory, Brett Maher and Gifford. Damn its getting hard to hate the Cowboys!
I like his chances.
My bet is the practice squad until Sean Lee has his typical mid-year season ending injury!
That's always possible with Lee.
I was with you until the last sentence, the only thing easy to love about the cowboys are:
Gifford just had an interception with a 13 yard return against the 49ers. He also has 1 solo tackle.
Of course, the nimrod announcers called him Luke Griffin, the undrafted LB out of Nebraska.
Maher is 2 of 2 on FGs with a long of 40, so far.
