Signed by Cowboys Cowboys are re-signing DT Carlos Watkins

[Carson]

They’re running it back. All they needed was for the rest of the NFC to get worse. Boom. Done.

They have It's our chance to make a run!

 

[MonsterD]

THEY DID IT THOSE MANIACS REALLY DID IT!!!!

 

[JohnnyHopkins]

Probably for the best. Dallas will never draft a top tier DT (or Safety), so they are at least adding in some passable players.

WE. NEED. OL

WE. NEED. OL

See you next month, Dallas!

IMO, they have 0 intention of kicking Parsons to edge full time.

Fowler, Armstrong, Golston, Tank and Basham are all under contract.



This is my issue as well. We have about 15 free agents this offseason. Next year, will be more of the 15-20 free agents.

Maybe. Hope you're wrong. He needs to play where he makes the biggest difference. He's a really good linebacker and could very one of the best in time. Judging by last season he's also the most talented pass rusher to come around this generation so.....what gives?

 

[Cowboyny]

Stephen is determined to put together the exact team from last season........

Clearly the plan was to bring back the defense personnel and fix the offense via the draft. If we resigned Gregory, don't think many would be complaining, but heard many prior that they didn't want to resign him.

really ,exact no Gregory, Amari, zurlien, cwill, collins, wilson, and others will all be replaced and th draft is coming...thats not exact please bone up on your definitions.. they are churning the roster but we aren't in rebuild mode and why would we be,.

why not be similar? we were 12-5 destroyed the division you act like we were 4-13 or something.

Oh he will move around for sure. I just meant he’s not going to go full time like others have suggested

 

[charron]

A decent stop gap player to add depth with the other stop gap players. Eventually we will hit on a DT that can be dominant....I hope.

 

[Cowboyny]

Think he is the last defensive fa they will sign prior to the draft, they should focus on the OL now. I wouldn't rule out more signings after june 1st when Collins money gets freed up.

 

[KJJ]

The Cowboys were the last team to sign an outside free agent. We really do like our guys.

 

[jazzcat22]

I like this, now bring back Urban as well.
I love the meltdowns posts.

 

[Doomsday101]

As long as it was done at a decent rate, no issue with it. Watkins played well in rotation and like it or not you need guys like him to be part of the overall rotation on defense. My understanding it was a 1 year deal

 

[Cowboysheelsreds053]

Yes good rotation guy but you need a solid dog starter and if you are going to rely on guys constantly going in and out good luck with that.

 

[Ranching]

Good solid player! I like it.

 

[quickccc]

I mean outside of Gregory, Neal and Kazee it's the same guys. Neal and Kazee are easily replaced with higher upside guys (Jabril and Malik)

Hey, ... don't forget Cool Hand Luke Gifford ! .............

Is Brent Urban Legend next ... ??

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

Folks will pan it but Watkins was actually a solid player for us.

 

[Majic]

All these guys on one year contracts...

 

[Pokes12]

Championship!!!!
