Default Cowboys could restructure Brandon Carr contract.

The Dallas Cowboys will restructure the contract of CB Brandon Carr, who is set to count $16.3 million against the salary cap in 2013, to save them roughly $10.5 million in space.

I agree. It's clearly time to looking toward the future. Despite the fact that we're still technically in the playoff hunt. Too many key injuries to expect any type of real push/run. Not to mention the other factors.

This is a hypothetical.

It's taken from archers salary cap article posted a few hours ago. Archer never said they were or are doing this, he said they could.

Maybe they can restructure his ability to cover mediocre receivers while they're at it.
victory is ours

those stats mean absolutely nothing in regards to his play. I am not commenting on his play good or bad, just saying those stats dont tell you anything.

What does this mean? He guards "mediocre receivers" fine.

I think we may end up with around $35 million in cap room and that is counting the $5 million joke of a penalty.

I have no issue with Carr.. I think he does a tremendous job out there. The safeties are a whole different story though.

It sure is and Archer is assuming that the Cowboys will convert all of Carr's salary into a bonus which is a plausible idea, but VR can restructure whatever amount they need to get where they want to be.

Also Archer is wrong about being $20M over, it's more like around $13M.

The Cowboys can restructure Carr, extend Romo, and cut Free and they will be under $20M pretty quickly.
"It's little bit like the description of pornography from years back. It's hard to define it. But you know what it is at the end of it. It's hard to define it. I think you know who is more physical. Often times you see that in the fourth quarter. A lot of time the team on the other side feels it. We pride ourselves on being a physical football team. It's important to us. It's an important time of the year to lay that foundation." - Coach Garrett

Wow really ? That's great news. We can have a good chunk of room to make some significant moves. What big name free agents will be available this coming off season ?
