News: DC: Cowboys Agree To Terms With Pro Bowl DE Greg Hardy

[Alexander]

Sounds very much like we're renting him for a year.

I guess that means we are doing what we want in free agency.

 

[reddyuta]

oh well,hopefully he will give us a chance to offer him a big deal first.

 

[noletime95]

so this is a one year rental

The no tag part sucks.

 

[maxdallasfan]

This tells me its all in for this season. AP is next.

The dust will settle after next season as the team finds a new franchise QB.

 

[mugsybows]

if he shows signs of tearing it up during the season we have to extend him.

 

[Kaiser]

I am fine with the one year deal. They can franchise him next year if need be and let's be frank, a 5 year $35+m guaranteed deal that it would take to guarantee his presence could just as easily blow up in our face.

Hardy took a one year deal because he didn't want the Cowboys Kracken the salary cap.

OK, I'll stop.

 

[Christiann]

Completely okay with the one year deal. If Jerry/Stephen want Kraken to be around after this year, it'll happen.

 

[CATCH17]

I already miss having Greg Hardy on the team.

just keeps getting worse and worse. 2 thumbs down for the cowboys staff. what a bunch of idiots. Jerry would have had him locked up. I cant even be happy because the guy is a renter and will probably miss the first 4 or 6 games.

Great job letting him use the Cowboys to get a big contract next year from another team. So stupid!

 

[THEHEREAFTER]

Wait... people are still upset? Smh...

 

[Alexander]

I'm just happy with what we got. One year is better than nothing.

Sad to feel that way, but it is true. I would like to get all angry but there is little choice when the team does nothing in the first wave of free agency.

 

[canters]

Wow, if he has a good to great year in Dallas, can we afford him in '16? Will he want Suh $?


Anyways, I am enjoying the moment. Worry about next year in March of 2016.

 

[kTXe]

That is in trouble for currently the biggest issue in the NFL with having domestic violence claims against him.

Which is exactly why we were able to sign him to this kind of deal that protects the team 100%, while minimizing the money we would have to pay him during any suspension.

 

[NEODOG]

Damn glad to have him

Pretty pissed it's not for 2-3yrs

 

[Rogerthat12]

Kraken Time:

 

[Zimmy Lives]

Completely okay with the one year deal. If Jerry/Stephen want Kraken to be around after this year, it'll happen.

That was funny! I'm Kraken up over here!

 

[DFWJC]

I'm just happy with what we got. One year is better than nothing.

Thank you.

I can't believe all the whining.

We have a great pass-rusher this year at the least.
WAY better than the alternative

LOL. Geezus people.

So you preferred the other option? That Hardy doesn't play for us this year?

 

[iceberg]

So if both Hardy and Dez go off and have a stellar year with everything else they've accomplished we get to lose one of them ala DeMarco Murray next year because Bryant was Tagged this year and next year they both get paid. I'm not saying a one year deal was bad but I definitely don't see it as good,especially if he kills this year and we can't pay him next year.

Ill go ahead n wait before panicing.

 

[USMarineVet]

I would have liked this to be longer term as well.. DE is still a must in the draft.
