I’m serious. I could understand if the plan is to save enough money to sign any of your own free agents that you want to keep. The Cowboys didn’t want Cooper and Gregory? They don’t want Kearse?They have more talented players on the roster than those three? What’s the point if you’re not going to use all the “saved” money to overpay your own free agents so you don’t lose them?

Over pay for home grown talent and quantity over quality in FA market.

Oh they spend...

Just look at the contracts they gave to Dak, Zeke, Blake Jarwin, Cooper, D-Law, Anthony Brown, etc.

They were going to give Randy Gregory a $70 million contract...

Franchise Tagged Schultz...

They seem to always think that they are good enough to compete with the rest of the league when it's clear that they are still lacking in key areas.

Simple. He’s told you before. They want to do it “their way”. He could go 0-49 and win the 50th and he’s tell you it was worth it because they did it “their way”

They think they are smarter than anybody else. They use free agency to fill out the depth chart before the draft so they don't have a position of "need".

What they fail to recognize is they are missing golden opportunities to add talent AHEAD of the draft. Adding jags in free agency is a waste of cap room and most will be gone next year anyway.
