Barr, clowny, tretter. Then while in TC probably look at 1 or 2 of these DT's and maybe an OT.

I would sign Wagner....oh. wait, ok, no I would sign Miller..ahh, wait no, can't.




the only one I would consider is Tretter....bring him. if he is better than Biadasz, then bye by biadasz.

I’m still concerned at swing tackle
Just don’t think putting a guy in at LT who never took an NFL snap is wise
I think LB depth should be addressed

I would sign no one to a long term deal. Make sure to have plenty of cap dollars for next offseason when the real rebuilding begins, when we dump some more salaries and more of the youngsters develop. This team is an extremely exciting up and comer.

I agree, would feel better with a veteran swing. Think they envision Steele filling that role again and just replacing him at Right Tackle if Tyron went down.

There aren't many big contracts left after Zeke's deal, outside of Martin and Dak.

- Lets be realistic about the remaining offseason, as we’re not gonna chase high heralded FA names such as Bulaga, Jason Paul, etc.
and we know they definitely will not come cheap the closer it gets to camp.

- And I doubt we have near as many noted vet FAs as per 2020. (Griffin, Aldon, McCoy, Worley, etc)

- We still really need a formidable punt returner – are we gonna still keep using (over-using) our feature lead WR as the primary punt returner ?
Who are the other options as PR ?.. Diggs ? …Lewis ?
Don't be surprised if WR/PR Jamison Crowder or Emanuel Sanders could be cheap vet i year rentals to be slot/PR
and forget it Beasley returning - (too much in house issues)

- Cowboys seem very content with starter Tyler Biasdaz – and they like Farniok as a utility backup at C/OG guy.

- Plan seems clearly for Cox, Gifford to represent LB depth.- Club hopes no-name rookie LBs to surprisingly stick (Harper, Hansford, Jackson, etc)

- the FG situation is either gonna be settled at the end preseason ..or Cowboys (and bad Bones Fassel) will be right out on the streets looking
for vet kickers - before or during the season.

- Still don’t like, not settled with the backup QB situation. Even very average Cooper Rush needs serious competition - with only Wil Grier.

- Besides PR, I would’ve liked to add more jet-speed at WR, move over the top threat.

- We’ll add a 4th TE by reg season.

- 6 sacks surrendered and we just invested a 1st rd pick in an OG, why would we'd want Erik Flowers ?
- Hitchens is toast. Average LB with lesser and lesser range. Cut the bias ties with the past.

- I wouldn’t mind having Kwon Alexander, Anthony Barr or KJ Wright instead of LVE,
- and I wouldn’t mind having the most reliable of the big boyz 1 techs – ala Suh or Williams (Hicks hurt often)

Its not like they are loading up for a superbowl run. I would maybe add a LB.

Diggs, CeeDee, Shultz and Steele will be looking for extensions. Stephen said himself we got to get these contracts completed earlier. He seems to regret what went down with Dak.

I would keep my eye on Fuller at wideout. We could use his speed but he is always hurt.

Would like to see a few more vet player LB's and C and OG also.

But nothing will happen until after OTA's, maybe even a few weeks into TC.

At this point, I’m waiting to see the rounds of roster cuts during preseason. That’s the best time to pick up an experienced veteran on a one year deal for reasonable money. You’ll also know more about your tackle and WR positions, etc.

Those are all nice players, but our front office has not shown much interest that we know of.
This is disappointing because Stephen said they would be players in free agency after the draft.
To be fair, their has not been much free agency movement league wide since the draft.
Hopefully we start securing some free agents soon.

Think the there is a date when you can sign players without losing your earned comp picks, also post june 1st releases give teams more funds.

You bring in Flowers, who has been a much better Guard for competition. We know McGovern isn't starting here again.
