Quite uninspiring

I agree, but almost all of them have something to prove and I expect this FA class will be the completes opposite of what we saw last year.
At the very least there will be competition.

The article is wrong about Basham. If they cut him the dead money is $3.75 million because his 2021 salary of $1.25 million is guaranteed and they gave him a $2.5 million bonus. If they cut him after June 1, the salary and 1st year pro-rated bonus would hit their CAP. That's a total of $2.5 million. Over-the-Cap has it right. But I agree, his CAP impact is the same if they cut him or keep him so why not keep him.

I'd say Kazee is basically a lock if healthy. He's the only true FS on this roster. I bet they certainly don't want to have to run Kearse out there at FS, for example. I also suspect Neal is a lock too.

So what would be an inspiring list, that could fit within the cap space?

Ladouceur played in 253 games, two shy of the franchise record set by Witty. That's going to be tough to follow.

I don't see how Jake McQuaide can even approach it that way.

The Cowboys currently sit with 9M in cap space, pair that with some creativity and I think this list could have been more inspiring.

Need to identify if any are progress stoppers in camp. Don’t want to cut a draft pick or UFA with potential for a player who will be here one-year.
Say it comes down to Kazee, Mukuamu, and Coyle for one spot. Maybe Mukuamu and Coyle need 1/2 year to be ready for action but you can’t stash those two on PS.
There are going to be some tough calls to make in camp this year. Progress stoppers, injuries, potential, growth rate guessing.

Clowney signed in Cleveland for 8m, that would have been a huge get for you guys

They still have to sign Parsons, Joseph, and the 3 3rd rounders I think. That will gobble up a lot of that 9M.

Clowney is not as good as Lawrence or Gregory. So, where and when would he play?

Why do you think he’s not as good as Those two?

No way I want Clowney here. Over rated and injury prone. But hey to some he is still a big name, so that is what they want. Never mind if he is a good fit or not.

Make the case that he would be an upgrade on either.

Other than the long snapper I'd not be surprised if only one of them make it, they're all basically JAGs....
