Twitter: Free Retiring***Merged***

[TRUTH87]

Yep.. He's good but he's a liability for health.

Its really an issue with him. Oline tend to stay pretty healthy. They arent jumping around or running too much. They usually get rolled up from behind and get their ankles/knee tweaked.

Trade Romo for Jeremy Parnell.
Someone had to say it.

X is that you?

[CashMan]

He's a guard.

He was drafted as a RT.

 

[CashMan]

How so? He was in 1 game, and has been on like 4 teams.

 

[JBell]

Cooper's a guard. Dumb tweet.

 

[JBell]

He was drafted as a RT.

And after getting exposed in pass protection, he's shown he belongs at guard. Got moved to guard last season.

 

[erod]

Those counting on Cooper. Why? Three teams in a short career.

Agreed.

It's like Brandon Marshall. The guy has never played in a playoff game. Ever. That's not totally by accident. Five different teams.

Other team's trash is rarely treasure.

This. But with Free and Leary gone, the price to re-sign Cooper will go up. I hope not by much though.

 

[BAT]

Re-sign Jon Cooper.
Basically make him compete at LG vs Chaz Green at RT with Collins moving if Cooper is the better option.

Guard/Tackle now a consideration at 28.

I'd kick tires on Fluker, but short-term and no bidding war.

Would do both. Re-sign Cooper and sign Fluker. Cheap prove it deals. See if either Collins or Martin can play RT. Draft Aviante Collins in 6th.

Place Chaz Green in cryogenic chamber after every practice. But if Cowboys want to actually improve OL from last season, then trade 2018 2nd to Browns for Joe Thomas.

Cooper isn't likely to get anything better than what Warmack got.

yep, probably worse.

I like your last idea there. Maybe we could make it 2018 1st rd pick and get them to throw in Joe Haden.

Don't know who that is.

Props. I LOL'd.

 

[big dog cowboy]

 

[pancakeman]

Doubt we'd be in on any big ticket RTs but woulda been nice to know last week

Just 'cause *we* didn't know doesn't mean the team didn't.

 

[darthseinfeld]

Chazz Green probably goes the season as our second best OT if Free DOESNT retire

Problem is yoy cant count on him to stay healthy

 

[CT Dal Fan]

There's good news here. The Cowboys gain $5 million of cap room with Free off the books. That's $10 million of upcoming room once the Romo move, whatever it will be, is made.

I'll just cross my fingers Green or Cleary can hold fort at right tackle while this newfound salary cap space gets used to lock up Zack Martin long term.

 

[Deep_Freeze]

Stupid.

Right after free agency starts, and now it is drying up, Free wants to retire.

I hate stupidity, and we are just stupid.
