Some FAs Dan Quinn may be interested in bringing to Dallas

[Bobhaze]

Im going to say its highly unlikely we sign any of these players

Yeah, me too. If it’s not a “blue light special” or discount priced player, we're not interested.

SHERMAN always gets a bad wrap for being selfish but he is very smart and heady. He will be like a coach on the field. EVEN if only available for half the games, he's worth a 1 year deal. The youngsters would be well served. Sign him and Kazee. WANT neal but he's gonna be pricey. Sherman and Kazee is a good mix. Think about something, if we only are able to sign Sherman, would he be willing to extend his career like Charles Woodson did and play safety? WHY NOT? Sherman next to Wilson would be awesome. He wouldnt have to be a shut down cb anymore..he could just roam the back end of the D.Get guys lined up right.

 

[Loso86]

Don’t mention any of these guys. A majority of people have declared they all suck and don’t need to be signed

Yup apparently they all suck and we dont hVe money to pay. Were doomed fornthe next 30 years and they will. Complain until then lmao

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

you rather re-sign a career underachiever that's been just average serviceable player over a guy that's already a pro bowl caliber ?
just for the sake of being the cheaper dollar and less talented ? How much sense does that make ?

Its not a either or....I re-sign Chido and then draft Horn, Surtain or Farley. Then I use those savings on defensive line or safety. Sorry if that doesn't make sense.....

New Cowboys defensive coordinator Dan Quinn has a reputation as a guy players like playing for. He’s energetic and approachable and based on some recent history, enjoys a level of loyalty from former players.

Question: Will Dan Quinn be interested in recruiting some defensive free agents to Dallas that are both impactful and at a price Stephen Jones won’t balk at? Here are some possibilities based on Quinn’s time both in Atlanta and Seattle:

• Safety Damontae Kazee- 27 year old S who had 8 Int’s in 2018 for Atlanta. He was a 5th round pick in 2017 and started most of his time in Atl. Unfortunately, he had an Achilles injury that ended his season in Oct of last year. If healthy, Kazee is an upgrade for sure from Xavier Woods.

• CB Richard Sherman- 33 year old former All Pro who starred for Quinn in the “Legion of Boom” days in Sea. I’m not normally a big fan of signing FAs who are on the tail end of their careers, but Sherman is a guy who can be a locker room leader and have a positive impact on the culture. He’s not as good as he once was but he’s still better than most of what we have. He’s probably a future HOFer. If his price is right, I would be interested.
  
  
• Safety Keanu Neal- 25 year old former 1st round pick in Atl. The Falcons exercised their 5th year option on him last year. He is an outstanding tackler but not as much of a ball hawk. Avg speed but hits like a freight train. Had a torn ACL in 2019 but did return in 2020. Probably a more refined Donovan Lewis type, so we may not be interested for that reason.
  
  
• DE Charles Harris- 26 year old former 1st round pick of the dolphins, Harris was traded to the Falcons in 2020 as an edge rusher. Had 3 sacks last year in 13 games, but has certainly underachieved for a 1st rounder. He does have talent though. Not that intriguing to me though.
  
  
• CB Shaquill Griffin- 25, has played hist first 4 yrs in Sea. Never played for Quinn in Sea but comes from a familiar system. Griffin was a 3rd round pick in 2017. He made the ProBowl in 2019 and has 6 INTs in 4 years. I would be very interested in this guy in free agency.

Who knows if any of these guys will end up here but it is certainly a possibility the way free agency usually goes. Many FAs like to play for coaches they know and in systems they have had success with. We might see a couple of them land here.

please excuse me while I throw up

Chido is really not a good fit for the Quinn defense. He's the antithesis of a cb with length, 30 5/8". Pete Carroll insisted on over 32"

Regarding Kazee:

Regarding Kazee:

Zeke should do that to any Honey Badger sized safety.

 

[panchucko]

I won't say they suck but I will say that I'd prefer our DC start off fresh with new players. I never been a fan of the ol' bring in players the coordinator previously had...especially when he got fired from that spot.

That’s the issue with recycled coaches they like to bring in familiars Not always a bad thing but I hated being the Dallas Giants when Tuna took over

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

Sign me up for Sherman and Kazee. The latter might not be healthy, but worth a shot

Yush, I'd like those two!

Among Sherman, I read Quinn's interested in the following FA's as well being he's also tied to each one of them. I wouldn't be surprised Quinn signs one of these guys. They'll be reasonably inexpensive being they've been out of work.
Darqueze Dennard
Keanu Neal
Damontae Kazee
Earl Thomas

Kazee would be ok if he wasnt coming off an injury.


Griffin=awuzie so dont know why they wouldnt just resign him.

Harris sucks

Neal is injury prone and isnt better than donovan wilson AND cant play single high

Sherman called out Jerry 3 months ago, he isnt coming here but also he's falling off. Seens this would he another rob jerry for a last payday situation. I respect his career though.

Because Quinn wants CBs with length.

If it’s not someone who they want specifically then whoever we sign sucks instead lol

I hated it too. Only guys I liked were Campbell, Richie and Glenn. Rest of them were worth a damn.

 

[Carson]

Regarding Kazee:

Im ok with that as long as he’s getting picks

 

[IceStar-D7]

I'll pass.....

 

[cowboyec]

s keanu neal
db damonte kazee...i liked him at san diego st
de charles harris...i thought he might be our pick going into the draft...i thought taco would go before him.
it was reversed...i also thought tj watt would go before both of'm.

This height thing is funny. Theyre the same player regardless of length
