Free Agency Rumors Thread

this is happening folks

 

[TheFinisher]

YES

 

[DFWJC]

You had 2-3 decent players with salary cap savings from Ware, depending on how you structure the deals.

 

[Common Sense]

I figured as much when Fisher started saying Ware would only be cut the minute they had their new "$7.4 million player" locked down, then went on to share Henry Melton's Twitter handle a couple of tweets later.

 

[Risen Star]

Blaine Gabbert traded to San Francisco for a 6th round pick.

 

[TheCount]

His knee doesn't worry anyone? I'm worried we sign him and then think the DL is addressed.

 

[Pessimist_cowboy]

He is average stay away from him coming off a torn acl . Rather have hatcher or spencer back .

 

[cowboyschmps3]

Like NOW!!!!

 

[Zimmy Lives]

Sheesh! Ware's body isn't even cold yet and they are already courting Melton.

 

[Risen Star]

I would hope not but I couldn't rule that out.

Yes. The knee has to worry you.

 

[KingintheNorth]

Wanted him to sign here, good player. He's going to have a lot of the same problems Ware had. Teams can double team and gameplan you because you don't have talented players next to you.

 

[theebs]

awesome.

Fits this coaches time here to a T.

Injured and a risk off the field. Seemingly looking for a payday.

But he knows the great and powerful marinelli.

ugghh. this year is going to be as bad as the quincy years.

Say hello to Timmy Jernigan.

 

[Pessimist_cowboy]

We are downgrading . Hatcher is two times the player . This move would show where we are heading .

 

[mldardy]

Spencer coming off of injury too and Hatcher will be 32 next year. Melton is 27 and just as good as Hatcher at that position. I'll take my chances with Melton.

 

[Pabst]

Agreed, knee is definitely a concern. I'm guessing this means Hatcher is gone. I'm generally okay with that. I view players who only perform in contract years rather unfavorably.

 

[dbonham]

Wonder if that knocks Aaron Donald off the board. If this happens you gotta think they go with Ealy or Barr even if they like Donald more.

 

[TheRomoSexual]

Yes yes yes! He is a true franchise 3-tech.

 

[montgod]

Well he would fit into this mold hopefully after his knee injury:
"Cowboys believe they can sign 3 low-salaried defensive linemen as role players and replace DeMarcus Ware productivity"

Getting Melton would be CLUTCH right now. Perfect fit.
