You said go get a starting caliber safety, so the logical inference is you don't believe the Cowboys have one. :rolleyes:

Have fun sweating over the 4th WR, Rowdy.

The 3rd safety plays as often as the 3rd LB in today's NFL. You know what.... you wouldn't understand.

Yeah the Cowboys have the best roster ever constructed, and don't need to improve a thing.

Ditto here.
i too wanted Griffen over Clowney. ...i just cannot sit well with a 3 sack DE in Clowney.

i wonder what the terms and years are for. I didn't think he'd sign with us seeking that last lucrative big contract.


I'm higher on Clowney than most. I would have preferred him bc he's younger and he is good, but as long as we limit Griffens snaps we'll be golden.

Wow, completely shocked! He was the pass rusher I wanted the team to target as soon as he became a fa. With a lot of rumors going around about his off the field behavior, I didn't see this signing coming. This just tells us, that wasn't the issue, it was all about his price. He probably lowered his demands and chose Dallas due to his former DC on our staff.

He is a balanced DE, very good run defender and a quality pass rusher. We even saw him have success playing inside against the Saints in the postseason. I believe our biggest priority need has been filled. Our DL is more of a strength now, loaded with depth and veteran leadership. Outstanding signing!! I just read for just 6 million, even better!!
