I am all for cutting Free but who will be the backup RT? are we going to use up our limited draft choices to pick another OT?

Use our draft picks to upgrade one of the weakest positions on the team? Sounds good to me.

Man you guys are so negative about Free! He was actually pretty good at the end of the season when he had a fire lit under him. I am all for him and Parnell competing. I won't be pissed

It always surprises me that the media guys that work for the Cowboys can't present clear and accurate numbers when it comes to the salary cap.

I think I've made the point before that screaming about how we have no cap space is a really easy story to tell. Judging from most people on this board, they don't need to work any harder b/c even when things are explained in detail, folks don't understand the cap

It's been so long since we've seen consistently good line play that people's standards have really lowered.

Its stupid to cut free or Ratliff.

unless we have proven replacements.

Right now we do not. Free could bounce back and have a great year and since the team will be paying him a lot anyway, or at least in cap numbers...

I would rather he have a great bounce back year here instead of KC where who knows I bet andy reid would have interest.

same goes with Ratliff, the last thing we need is him cut and ending up in ny or philly and he has a bounce back year.

Easy decision for me. Cut Free and never look back.

Word is Jamarcus Russell is attempting a comeback. Bring him in to play RT. At 6'5" 308 lbs and solid athleticism he'd be a perfect fit

I agree on Free -- except that he knows that no one is going to pay him 7 or 8 mill or whatever it is next year. If cut, he'd not earn anywhere near that. I'd like him at a reduced salary.

Ratliff... that decision cannot be made based on need. Given everything that has happened over the past few weeks, Ratliff needs to be cut. It just has to be that way

Completely agree. Free is a pretty good tackle as long as he doesn't have to play a full game. Him switching off with Parnell might just work.

Was a bad attempt at a joke. I was just commenting on your writing style. It's more in short lines going down than it is sentences going across horizontally.
