Cowboys showing interest in CB Chris Harris; signs with Chargers

[Risen Star]

This is the first that any of you have heard about this.

 

[JohnsKey19]

To quote another esteeemed Cowboyszone poster, "we had interest".

 

[jazzcat22]

Cowboys will be linked to just about every high profile FA available.

 

[Carson]

Stephen : "Hey Chris, how would you like to be a Dallas Cowboy!"

Harris : "Would love to!"

Stephen : "How about a three year, 10 million dollar deal do!"

We'll make a fair offer.

 

[Carson]

Why even bother with a soon to be 31 year old corner if you're not interested in winning now?

 

[Sydla]

I think he'd be a decent signing at the right price but my gut tells me this is just window dressing BS like previous years where we were linked to some big names for PR purposes only.

Stop gap player?
So they do not have to spend a top pick on a CB. Draft one later and develop?

They feel they have Awuzie and Lewis, and if they resign Brown, for say a 2 year deal.

Not he same caliber but this is Earl Thomas all over again.

Does anyone think this has legs? We all know MM spent a ton resources on DB position during his Packer tenure. Harris could be a good replacement for BJ at the right price.

Report: Cowboys already shopping for Byron Jones replacement

Todd Brock

The noon bells chimed at the league’s New York offices on Monday, signalling the official end of many players’ contracts. With a single clock tick, any and all interested teams were instantly within their rights to reach out to free agents from other organizations to begin wooing them to new cities.

 

[Carson]

I don't think we're legit contenders for his services.

Bradberry will likely go to the Skins. Jones to the Jets or Raiders. Bills have a solid defense and Harris would be great across from White.

I think it's just smoke.

"Honest" offer...S Jones!

 

[KingintheNorth]

Cowboys probably offered league minimum with under the table agreement for Harris to pay Stephen back $25 a game.

And parking

Stephen: "Read your contract Chris. Parking was never part of it."

 

[darthseinfeld]

I could see Harris being the type of guy they look at to replace Jones. Older, short term money. However right now, Harris is a definite downgrade

He turned down a three year, 36 million dollar deal with Denver. So hes looking for about 13 per year sadly

If there guarentees are small, I could see Dallas looking at him. I dont think the AAV is a concern as much as the guarenteed money

no it's definitely not the first ... but it's hard to take serious with the way Stephen likes to front and low ball the dollars sometimes in vet Free Agency.

Only the Sammy Watkins deal was the last time I can remember the Cowboys really selling out to get a very high priced vet FA.
FA bust DT Cedric Thorton was only a minor pursuit.

 

[Mr_437]

I like Chris Harris, but paying him around 13 per when DEN won't would be questionable.
