On the Byron Jones quandary, I wouldn’t be so quick to dismiss him.

I think we’d all agree that he is at least a very good corner who just doesn’t make many plays, right? Okay, well the Cowboys defense has called man coverage about 25% of the time, give or take. Who knows how the guy would be in a heavy man coverage role? I don’t think he’d set the world on fire with 7-10 Ints or anything, but with his coverage ability, he could definitely be in position for many more passes defensed, etc and maybe a few Ints a year. Would he actually catch them? Who knows?!?

I believe we’re in the unfortunate position of the coaching change coming in his contract year. I’d love to have one season to see how he performs in a more aggressive defense. Just playing devils advocate here.

Good post. On A&E with me, Peter Graves.

I don't see both getting done...but if they do, you tag Byron, right?


I think they will do both deals.

Then Jerry Jones will tell his Love Field credit card story again to try to make people feel sorry for how much cash this is costing him.

Now Jones will be a little different.

In related news the Cowboys have announced they’ve resigned Jason Witten to a 3-year contract, completely guaranteed contract.

His hand...
Has never cramped.

And he has written a check to a Garrett every week continuously for all, but 2 out of 30 years.

I'm not touching you...

Stephen does have diarrhea of the mouth when it comes to discussing contracts to the media.

I wonder how long the eventual “Dak Prescott agrees to terms” thread is going to be.

60 pages? 70? 80?
Great question. I imagine the traffic in here will be comparable to when the Cowboys are on the clock with their 1st round pick.

Just imagine how many thread merges there will be.

I wish Stephen would announce the sale of the Dallas Cowboys to a family that knows nepotism doesn’t work.

In an alternate universe Tom Brady is coming Dallas
That would be a disaster for us. Brady’s a 43 year old has been. Probably the best ever. But he reminds me at this point of Muhammad Ali at 40. The greatest boxer ever, past his prime and unwilling or unable to see it. Brady at 43 is not very good.

@PAPPYDOG I hope you're getting your luggage ready. You said about a year ago that if the Cowboys ever gave Dak a big, longterm contract, you would disappear from this website for a whole year.

Well, I hope you are a man of your word.

Going to miss you...(sniff...sniff) /sarc :laugh:

Never said that so stop lying!
I know my existence here dampers the Dak PR efforts but I'm not the only one doubting this imposter of QB abilities here.
GL man and hope the pay-check you receive is worth
the selling out the Star!
