I would love it if Golden Tate became a Cowboy. Aside from him being a very good player, and having a dawg attitude that this team needs, it would be worth it to see all the crying by people over a hit years ago that the same people would have applauded had he been wearing a Cowboy uniform.

Whatever Tate's cost is would end up being $5 million less after accounting for the corresponding cut and roster replacement of Allen Hurns.

Cowboys are interested in everybody if they are willing to take the vet minimum

I think the report was they’re looking into his health and everyone concluded it meant we were liking to sign him.

As far as Tate, I think he would be a good addition, but I bet the interest is probably along the lines of “if you decrease your contract demands by 50% then we’ll talk”.

Until I read it from someone else, I'll chalk it up to more spitballing from Fisher in a cry for attention.

We are eating up 6.25MM in cap space for Hurns. Cutting him saves $5MM against the cap, so you might need to scrounge up another 3-4MM in cap space to sign him?

Hell yeah. It should be a no brainer. He's significantly better than Hurns and healthier. Putting him on the field with Cooper and Gallup outside creates some real headaches for teams.

He nailed him. I hated to see it, but loved the play even at the time.

Tate walks the walk. That’s all that matters. He’s a football playing dude

I think he would be a good fit for this offense. He strength is in the slot and that is where our biggest need is. Gallup and Cooper have the outside covered. Him being in the middle would really open it up for the whole offense. He didn't really fit in @ Philly but to me he is a great 2nd tier signing.

Plus you can move him outside and put Cooper in the slot if you want to. Something we weren’t doing with Beasley on the roster.
