Would anyone oppose calling Miami about a trade for Xavien Howard and what would you give up.

He'd probably hold out here, too, until Jerry gives him the bank vault.

We like our guys.

The team does, but many on here don't like them. :muttley:

If Stephen wants to improve the team he should look in the mirror and fire who he sees

We really going to start AB or Joseph, vs the wrs we face this season?

Maybe. Maybe Wright. Maybe Mukuamu. Maybe Lewis. Maybe Coyle. Stay tuned. Fun times.

Take a look at next year’s cap for this team. They can’t afford to keep what they have, much less to trade valuable assets for someone else’s huge contract.

I don't know, they'll be able t work some contracts, some will come off the books, and the tv money is right around the corner, expecting the cap to rise a lot

I’ve never heard a team say we are trying to get worse lol
Though the actions of a few sometimes say that when they dump salaries

well this is a opportunity to really upgrade and get better, it's kinda been a lot of lip service. we know SJ is tight.

You can take a look at the Cowboys 2022 cap situation at spotrac. Here it is.

https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/dallas-cowboys/cap/2022/

They’re set to be $20 million over the projected $208 million cap increase.

You're right, but they don't aggressively try and get better either. that's my point. Stephen is too frugal

that's before cuts and restructures right?

While true, free agent signings are becoming more and more regrettable for teams these days. They rarely work out like planned, and those contracts end up being a burden.

I want them to be more aggressive, too, but I understand the reluctance.

Yes.

They’ll have to cut at least two big contracts just to get under the cap. They can’t afford to be adding any big contracts.

Congratulations. you’re right up there with @Dak_Attack_09 for crazy thread ideas

That's a pretty high bar. Are you sure?

I get that too, but when guys like this(productive) are possible trade bait, they usually work(Amari)

if you truly believe that, the cap is manipulated on the regular. teams like KC keep adding and they're supposedly capped strapped

I believe in math, yes.

people who are ignorant enough to want this team to trade premium picks for CB or SS are right up there

I think they think they make good decisions
Obviously they have been wrong more than right, especially in FA

IMO, Corner is not a big need for this team right now. Safety and interior DL are much bigger needs.

Bob, you might want to go in to some sort of witness protection program right now.

He's "frugal" because the Cowboys have too much cap space tied up in a handful of good players, that they are paying like great ones.
