If DAL is gonna make a FA move at either S or NT, it probably won’t come until after May 12. That’s the day FAs no-longer impact the Comp pick formula

Terrell McClain isn't long for the Commanders.Spagnola's column on DC.com seemed to imply that Dallas knows there will be salary cap cuts later on that will make new players available. A ST and 1T would be nice, Dallas has tons of cap room available for guys like that.

It used to be June 1st but they moved it up to May 12th a couple years ago to help these vets get jobs and into OTAs with their new teamsI've never heard this mentioned. That makes sense.
He was cut so he could be signed now and wouldn't count in the compensatory math.Terrell McClain isn't long for the Commanders.
There's a good chance all 3 make it.....but Bene might be the casualty.It used to be June 1st but they moved it up to May 12th a couple years ago to help these vets get jobs and into OTAs with their new teams
DAL is sitting on a 4th round Comp Pick for Hitchens right now but any new qualifying FA would erase that no matter what the salary amount .....we would have signed 5 and lost 5
We may not get it anyways......guys like Bene, Butler and Wilber need to stay employed all year but they also could cut Ealy or MMartin to balance it out
If the above guys are all that's out there? I could understand them staying with what they have honestly. Now Earl Thomas is a different story.With Tre Boston, Eric Reid, and Kenny Vaccaro still out there, I have no issue waiting til May 12th.
My issue would be if this front office arrogantly and foolishly roles with the "we like what we have at safety" mantra again.
I believe that this rule doesn't apply to him because he was cutI wouldn't be surprised if Dez doesn't get signed until after the 12th because of that as well.
Jonathan Hankins on a 1 year deal on May 13th would be a great signing for us. He'd also probably net us a 4th or 5th round compo pick at the end of the year.
