Recommended Jason Witten is returning to the Cowboys **merged**

[QUOTE="glimmerman, post: 9064813, member: 39143"]Weren’t some talking about a old TE coming here but got hurt a lot.

Now we have one that never gets hurt and knows the scheme. He gets open. And we have Moore to use him. Very familiar surroundings for all. This may work on a limited basis. He cannot be a 3 down player anymore. Neither can Sean Lee. Use them both in a coaching capacity also.[/QUOTE]

Eifert isn't nearing 40. But yes, he is pretty worthless when it comes to availability.

The Dak Knight and Super Man unite....again.

'MERICA'S TEAM

We did. Last year Schultz.

I know, I want them to draft another one.

 

[Sydla]

So we won’t spend like 2MM on a player that can still play like a Tre Boston.

But spend 5MM on a guy who is at the end of his career.

 

[aikemirv]

$5M.

Well.

That seals it. This organization is beyond capable, rational thought.

I like Witten and have no problem with him coming back but 5 million is way too much for sure.

What?.......Why?.......

 

[mattjames2010]

Being a fan of this team has its ups and downs, and some of the FO decisions are outright terrible, but this tops a lot of them.

This is the most embarrassed I've been to be a fan of this team in many years.

It's not THAT bad LOL

 

[remdak]

Heck, might as well go for Romo, Dez, and Demarco as well

 

[Parcells4Life]

Can they not teach Schultz to block?

 

[pacy]

I know a lot of people don’t like it. And I get it.


But

ESPN alert just crossed my phone.

My hot take: It's the same reason they want to bring Sean Lee back. He'll be more of a coach on the field. I don't think this stops the team from signing a TE in free agency (I certainly hope that it doesn't).

And let's all be honest. Old man Witten is STILL better than any TE that is currently on this roster.

 

[Cowboys_22]

He should have to give back his gift at his retirement press conference.

 

[Risen Star]

God #$-_, why did I have to start that aggressive offseason thread? This is not what I meant.

 

[Sydla]

It is pathetic.

Jerry and Stephen simply can’t quit certain players and coaches. It’s a fatal flaw they both have.

 

[Dale]

Yeah really weird.

I guess this means we don't need a TE anymore. God's back.

It feels good having the position solidified for the next decade again.

 

[Hawkeye0202]

Old news ........no knock against OP. Just the Zone get news so damn fast, 5 min after announcement, it's old......lol

 

[Rayman70]

In their minds they no longer have a need at TE and that's what is wrong with this.

agree.I just said that to my brother. In their minds now they don't have a need at TE. Its been a bad issue for Dallas for years, poor planning. Going back to the well again with Witten is dangerous, because NOW are they putting all their eggs in the Witten basket? Lets hope not.

$5 million. Can't believe I had an argument the other day over whether Stephen and Jerry know how to negotiate. What a clown show.
