Tango McCauley 5-yr contract?

[noletime1995]

I just read in Archer's article we signed this guy to a 5-year deal?

Anyone know the terms. This is from left field, I don't remember seeing anything about this. How many OL can we keep on the roster and how much a signing bonus did we give this guy to tie him up for 5 years?

The team has also signed CFL refugee Tango McCauley to a five-year contract in hopes he can become a contributing player.

It was in the "Time for Allen to Get Tough" thread

Hmmm, that's what u just said, huh?

Stoopid, Lord.

I reported the details on Jan. 8 at the old site --

Tango McCauley, the guard from the CFL, signed a five-year deal with a $100,000 signing bonus and minimum salaries. The last two years of the contract are voidable.

Offensive Guard/Tackle

6:03.3-304

Former defensive lineman who was a two-year starter at Texas A&M before transferring to Alabama State for his senior year… Uses his great upper body strength to dominate as a pass protector…Collegiate tackle whose trap blocking ability could see him shift to guard at the pro level…Shows very quick movement skills…Hits aggressively on contact, staying low in his stance with a quick arm rise to rock the defenders back…Does a fine job of getting position on the defender, using his hands effectively to turn and wall off…Simply mauls people with his straight-ahead blast in run blocking…Fluid in his retreat and kick-step, reaching and extending his arms properly to sustain and finish his blocks.

Troubled past: The Cowboys took a character risk in signing Tango McCauley, a Canadian League guard. Former Texas A&M coach R.C. Slocum dismissed McCauley from the team before the 2001 season because of a violation of team rules. In 2000, McCauley served a two-game suspension after being arrested for public intoxication while celebrating his 21st birthday.
