No big loss if he goes. He is not a shut down corner and his production will be easily replaceable. IMO there is only a few players on this team I would like to keep. Dak, Coop and a couple of OL.

Good post! I don't think he's worth a huge contract and Zeke will only earn his money if we hire Urban Meyer.
I think Zeke could be worth his contract, but only w/ a very tough hard-nosed HC. He won't live up to his potential under this soft regime.

Agreed, but probably seeking top 5 money 14+ million a year. We have the money to offer that, but will have a lot of big money deals for players paid in the top 5 that actually aren't top 5 players. That's pretty scary.
Yeah, but can pay him, but at what cost? Our CB's won't matter as long as we keep running out JAG's at DT.

No he won't live up too it with the stupid decision like Thursday's decision to let the QB throw 50 times.

Guys has been a lockdown corner for us. Maybe just maybe we want more ballhawk type players. We have the pass rush.

mid we’re not gonna pay Jones I would love to see us go that route. Maybe be more of a zone team that can pressure the opposing win with 4-5 and get turnovers.

we have a pretty decent front 7.

Before this year, I agreed.

After this year, let him walk. He’s too inconsistent, doesn’t make plays on the ball in the air and is getting beat by lesser players. I would love to retain him, but I’m not paying top dollar for him.

He just looks better because Awuzie is ****
Exactly, what has he done that would indicate he deserves to be paid like a top 10 corner. Any contract demands he makes that the team can't afford will be way overpaying an over rated talent!

DAL needs to rebuild the DL and secondary, but won't sign their best CB. Brace yourselves Cowboys could suck if they don't work some magic next off-season.

Signing your best CB to a huge deal keeps you from building the DL and secondary!!!!

No, we don't. Our DT's suck badly.

Byron Jones has 2 interceptions in 5 years as a Cowboy. I would not pay him a huge contract either. But someone will overpay him and I am glad its not the Cowboys. Will they miss him? Maybe. Honestly, Awuzie is playing better the past two games and Lewis just needs more playing time. This team needs an impact DT or safety more than Jones.
