lol...
Were you able to catch any of the Dallas Cowboy football games over the last few years? We use to have some guys named James and Brookings that were far worse than Sims. You act like he weighs 180lbs or something. Im not going to complain about the occational over pursuing when Im use to seeing guys never get there.
It was a very good find.

Personally, I'd say the Cowboys personnel department found a gem and a guy that will be a fantastic swing-linebacker in 2013, if they can keep him.

Need to sign Ernie to a long term contract

Definition of RESIGN

transitive verb
1
: relegate, consign; especially : to give (oneself) over without resistance <resigned herself to her fate>

2
: to give up deliberately; especially : to renounce (as a right or position) by a formal act

intransitive verb
1
[View Full Quote] : to give up one's office or position : quit

2
: to accept something as inevitable : submit

This seems a little excessive.

Negged for spelling Brooking wrong.

More relevant question than extending him: should he start over Connor when he returns?

We have a very small sample size of what Sims can offer versus Connor, but right now I'm leaning towards Connor being released in favor of Sims.
