Talkin cowboys 1/16

Demarcus is not a 3 down player anymore. You could sign 2 or 3 good players in free agency that will give you the same if not better production than what Ware can give you at this point in his career.

I'm not understanding the logic at Valley Ranch. Jerry needs to cut Ware and some others and use that money on younger/solid/cheaper dlinemen.

Yeah, two or three free agents are better than Demarcus Ware.

Damn, one bad year and youre done. Hes not even that old, jesus.
 
New England did the same thing with Richard Seymor, but they were able to trade him for premium draft picks. You can't hold on to these big name players that's holding on to what they did in the past it's time to move on.

They had Vince Wilfork on the roster.

What have we won with Demarcus Ware? I'm ready to get rid of all of these high priced Veterans that had their opportunity for at least seven years now. Its time to get younger and start looking towards the future. Demarcus Ware is not leading this team to a SuperBowl at this point in his career and at the price he's due to make for the next three years.

Crawford at 1 tech? He dropped his weight to 284 so he could play DE before he got hurt in camp. I don't get their reasoning unless something has changed since. He can play DT in nickel though. But he's not the size you want at 1 tech as a starter.

I agree with this, seems more like a SDE. Or, a 3tech - not a 1 tech. Unless he has already been told to beef up again.

Who cares what youre ready for? Thankfully, Ware will be here next year. The chances of winning a superbowl damn sure dont improve by cutting a player like Demarcus Ware.

So it was Marinelli's fault that Spencer hurt his knee and couldn't play this year?

Even if he didn't hurt his knee, the cost to franchise him was equal to arguably the two best 4-3 DEs on the market combined. The knee situation makes it even worse.

Well thats why Dallas drafted him. Because tha was his M.O at Boise. Very good against the run. Filling space on the strong side. Thats SDE in a 3-4 is a perect switch to a 4-3 1tech. What dont people understand about the way marinelli likes his DTs?

I think Ware can still be a good player. But his salary is far above the level of play.
When your as cap strapped as the Cowboys are, this matters. Paying anybody $12M for production worth perhaps half that is a drain on the entire team.
Ware needs to take a cut in pay or be released, for the betterment of the team. i liken a move like this to when the Patriots moven Richard Seymour to Oakland for a 1st round pick, rather than pay him.
I'd trade Ware for a 1st round pick in a heartbeat. But Al Davis is dead and nobody is dumb enough to pick up that contract.

On what planet is Richard Seymour comparable to Demarcus Ware? I agree, his salary is far too high but if he doesnt take a cut Dallas will just have to eat it. Ware will have a better year next year and we need his production because there are no better options.

Sure, but at 284 lbs ??? How could he hold up as a 1 tech - he would get run over all day, no matter how quick he would be...

It's been two seasons back to back where you can clearly see that Ware has not be the best player on Defense.
George Selvie had more sacks than Ware for crying out loud. I see you're one of those fans that's living off the past. Like Charles Barkley always says "FatherTime Bro" .

11.5 sacks and 5 forced fumbles? That season?
He was dinked up this year. That happens in football... I see youre one of those fans that doesnt understand that these things happen.
Take a look at Mathis, Philiips.... Their age, their stats.... The years they were injured. Ware is superior to them in every way, he will be fine.
