RELEASED Cowboys Release DE Benson Mayowa

[Hawkeye0202]

you think its Mcclays fault? he is not the one who is looking at JAGs all the time,its his boss Stephen Jones who has made it a priority not to sign big names AT ALL.

beat me to it.....how we know he didn't recommend a lot the same quality FAs that other teams signed, only to his boss tell him we couldn't afford them. This is all Stephen Jones and cheap azz. It's finally starting to catch up with him.

Who is our starting rde?

T.Crawford

 

[RS12]

And you thought we werent going to do anything this off season.

 

[Blackthorn]

The Cowboys are freeing up cap space and this move will give Taco more playing time. This is a wise business decision.

Going younger, look for Dallas to add another D-lineman in the draft

 

[CowboyChris]

And you thought we werent going to do anything this off season.

you are a couple of hours late

 

[TwentyOne]

Big move coming. We are bringing in that guy from that mcdonalds around the corner from the star. He will solve all of our problems.

 

[plymkr]

Creates roughly $2.75M in cap room.

Good move to cut him now, bad move to overpay for him 2 years ago.

This Front Office has completely whiffed in free agency the past few off-seasons yet McClay gets an extension?

Why exactly?

Jerry is comfortable with him.

 

[Sydla]

Exactly, why follow if you’re unhappy. That’s insanity...lol

Unhappy or just stating reality?

He was another failed dumpster dive FA.

 

[cheyennes]

obvio

 

[darthseinfeld]

IMO should have traded him before cuts last year. Coming off a 6 sack season he could have gotten us a late round pick

 

[Sydla]

We gave him $8.25M, $3.3M guaranteed, for a guy with 23 career tackles and 2 sacks. It was not a good signing. It reeks of the failed recent trend to be clever instead of signing talented football players who make us better.

It was a complete and utter shot in the dark signing because they had little cash to sign a real DE. So they wasted money on a guy who had no production but dazzled with athleticism.

I doubt it. We tend to overvalue guys. He was, is, and will be a JAG. The rest of the league knows this.

 

[Silver N Blue]

Whoo hoooo out of salary cap hel....p

 

[fansince80_dc]

Good move, just wish it gave us a little more money. Lets see what happens next here...

 

[rkell87]

And now we can afford to start paying Randy again.

 

[Rayman70]

Not trying to be Johnny Downer...but when looking at what the Iggles are doing as opposed to US so far, we ought to be very worried for say,THE NEXT 5-7 YEARS. We had better have one HELLUVA plan draftwise and in Free agency or this year will be even more unbearable than the last. The Iggles are setting themselves up to dominate for many years to come because they have a good plan in place,and we DO NOT IT SEEMS. I'm concerned guys.

 

[3rd_n_inches]

Good he’ll pay for David Irving’s tender.

It went to Gregory’s rehab bill

 

[buybuydandavis]

He was a good signing for the last 2 years....... time to move on

People shouldn't be calling that a bad signing.

Mayowa led the team in sacks in 2016. We've drafted and developed since then. We have other alternatives now, so we can dump him. Exactly what a bridge player is supposed to be.

 

[OnceMighty]

Sooo glad he’s gone. Should have been cut on spot during Green Bay playoff game.
He’s the dope that sissy-jogged off field allowing Rodgers to quick snap for 12 man penalty.
Next play long touchdown pass.
Parcels right once again; dumb people do dumb things.

 

[GenoT]

Average player, brought in for rotational depth, served his purpose, now he’s gone.

SOP in the NFL...
