Free Agency Rumors Thread

Before this year, there wasnt a soul on the planet that thought Hatcher was better than Melton. Most people had Melton as a top 2 DT with Atkins.

People who want hatcher back are the same ones who wanted ware back. Both over 30 and will make too much money. Get younger IMMEDIATELY

 

[Zordon]

this will not end well.

Earl mitchell to the dolphins, 4 yrs, $16m, $9m guaranteed

I am a fan of Melton, however, it's a bit of a downer to consider he'll actually be a downgrade from Hatcher's play last season.

On a short "prove it" contract I have no problem with this. Take a note from what Seattle did last season with Bennett.

 

[Pessimist_cowboy]

Come on, dude. You at least need to get your facts straight if you're going to take an extremely hyperbolic position on the matter.

Hatcher had 11 not 12 besides that everything I stated is true . We've officially hit rock bottom when we lose our two best lineman and are celebrating signing a guy who has 15 sacks in 5 seasons .

I agree

IF we do get Melton, its a piece to the puzzle. It does open the first round a bit more. DT 3 or 1, DE, Lber could all happen. Jerigan is an option. Would still take Donald if he still on the table. Hagerman as well.

 

[perrykemp]

Melton just as good as hatcher ? LOL c'mon dude that's ridiculous . Hatcher is a top 3 DT in the game . Wife beater drunk coming off torn acl no thanks .(but I guess he'd get along with Brent if he comes back ) what a joke of a franchise .

Melton has 15 sacks in 5 years wooooo Super Bowl . Hatcher had 12 last year alone .

Rarely do you and I agree. I agree with you on this. yes Melton is younger than Hatcher but Melton isnt nearly as good as Hatcher was last season.

@Edwerderespn: Louis knows a lot, especially about Eagles..RT..@LRiddickESPN: I would bet Philly is working hard to get Demarcus Ware. Very hard.”

Hatcher won't be as good as hatcher was last season.

Henry Melton has 15.5 sacks in 3.5 seasons and is considered one of the best at his position. Are you trolling?

 

[erod]

How about Melton AND Hatcher, and Donald in the draft?

 

[Bullflop]

@NFL_Access: Cowboys are interested in DT Henry Melton.


Cowboys are targeting Henry Melton. Like now. Lot of mutual interest. Could happen quickly.

Didn't see who posted last one on twitter

Yessir, I don't doubt one bit that we're interested. So will a lot of other teams with far more cap space than we have. We being said to be going after the players with modest contract probabilities. Once other teams make their bids, I'm anticipating we'll be quickly dispatched from being in the running for his services.

 

[Mrdude108]

Joseph to the Vikings means the Giants have a DT need, another team in front of Dallas that needs DL help.

 

[theebs]

Ware as an eagle.

Just horrendous.

Might as well cut witten and let him go play for the giants.

I can't wait until next year when he's suddenly the bum who never won anything and was part of the problem, too.

 

[Little Jr]

I'm on the fence with but I will say do people think hatch will have a year like last year? I'm a little skeptical about that too.

 

[Pessimist_cowboy]

That's not true at all . Atkins , McCoy , suh , hatcher , Jurrell , dareus , are on another level . Whoever thinks that or said that needs their eyes checked .

 

[theebs]

I am starting to wonder why we don't cut romo and witten right now?

They make a lot of money and are over 30.

I would love to see Garrett try and coach a rookie or a middle of the road vet in this organization at qb.

Then the debates about garrett would be over in about five minutes.

I bet if Garrett coached defense ware would still be here.
