Im not going as in depth as i did 1st time but heres another go at it

In house decisions
Brandon Carr-june 1st cut.No1 can say he doesznt deserve it.Has arguably been our weakest link on defence yest is the highest paid.
Henry Melton-Option declined.Thankyou but no thankyou.not at that price anyway.Unless he wants to come back for the price we paid this year then he walks.The eagles game changed my mind about him.
Doug Free-Decline the option.But i think he will be back
Dekoda Watson-Who?1.5mill cap hit,no thankyou.
Brandon Weedon-Should of stayed in baseball

With out working out a new deal with free then we just freed up 28mill n cap space (according to over the cap)
Expect to see that reduced by 4-5mill with free brought back.
Tony Romo-The last time romo ever gets restructured
Tyron Smith-Its there if we need it and could save upto 10mill here

With Romo and Smith restructured we are just shy of 50mill in cap space.Altho the saving from carr wont come of until june but will be used for the draft class so lets call it an even 40mill available.

Resign

Rolando Mclain-Theres a reason he is top of this list.I think he has made that muc of a difference to our defence.Him with Sean Lee gives us 2 off the better line backers in the league.
Dez Bryant-I hope they can get a deal worked out with him.I really do.If they cant then id still expect to see a tag and trade scenario but fingers crossed we can work out a reasonable deal for him.
Cole Beasley-I love little goldie locks.He wont cost much to brng back and worst case scenario put a 2nd or 3rd round tender on him
Lance Dunbar-So far i dont think we have seen all that dunabr has to offer.Are they holding him back for the playoffs?
Justin Durant-The injury is a blessing in disguise.Its enabled us to see exactly what we do have in hitchens and what we dont have in carter.Injury means he should be a cheap resigning.
Sterling Moore-Any reason he shouldnt be brought back?He will only be 10-11mill cheaper than brandon carr.
Ron Leary-Starting left guard brought back for under 600k?Yes please
Nick Hayden-He gets a rough deal from the fans,but the coaches ike him and he is cheap.Could be just a camp body depending on the draft.

Lets say that equates to 22mill of our money
leaves us 18mill for free agency (we still have carrs money in june for draft class)

Free agency

Greg Hardy-Its easy to judge what kind of man he is going of news reports.But none us no what really happened and what led upto it.Im more interested n the what kind of man he wants to be and what kind of player he is!And we can preach rkg all we want,but how rkg is dez?brent?At the end of the day if we can get 1 of the best defensive ends in the league for cheap then take him and do everything we can to keep his nose clean.

Byron Maxwell-Big strong corner.They said they wanted our defence to play like the seahawks well heres a seahawks cb to help with that.

Pernell Mcphee-Our 2nd real quality dline acquisition.We now have 2 ends who will hold the edge or get pressure on the qb.Add to that mincey who is playing well and anything the demarcus lawrence brings to the table in his 2nd season and we should have 4 reall good ends with high motors and plenty of disruption.

Denarius Moore-Added depth for our receiving corps.

The Draft

1st-Malcom Brown-dt-So i hear we are all set at dt?Id agree with that at the 3 tech osition where crawford has proven he is going to rule that position and with coleman and whalley behind him im comfortable.But 1 tech?we cant improve on a Brent as starter?then mclain and hayden behind him?
Step forward a wrecking ball of a dt.Grat at the point of attack,quick feat,good hands and an endless motor.Brent is now your back up and hayden or mclain (maybe both if bishop steps up) are off the roster.

2-Kevin Johnson-cb-The more i watch im the more im impressed.He can come in and play corner day1 for us.

3-Spencer Drango-ot-The oline rebuilding is complete.We bought him a season to transition as doug frees deputy

4-Mike Reilly-de-i did a post with some tape on him earlier in the week.Aguy im really high on

You have a lot of good ideas. The one I like the least is restructuring Romo . The one I like the most is Denarius Moore though he does get nicked up a lot. BTW I have seen first round grades on your top three picks.

Good post. I like your free agent moves.

Hardy is by far the best DE available.

I think Pernell McPhee is an underrated player. He's not a starter in the Ravens' 3-4, but he plays a lot of snaps. He plays both as a 3-4 DE, 3-4 OLB and as a DE when they use a 4 man line.

There are several options at CB. Maxwell would be a good option depending on the price.

I would just let Hayden move on in free agency. Josh Brent should be the starting 1-tech and they have options at backup DT with T. McClain, Okoye, Coleman and Bishop. I would expect them to draft a DT.

They need to restructured Romo, but then the get the money back more or less after Carr is a June 1st cut. They can carry over the 8M from Carr's cut into the following year and off-set the money pushed forward from restructuring Romo.

Unless Marinelli leaves we wont be drafting a DT in the first. Crawford will stay at 3 Tech and be our 2015 starter and Marinelli wont draft a 1 Tech in the first

I think Brown can collapse pockets, doenst matter where he plays. Pockets collapsed up the middle, trumps pockets collapsed on the outside IMO, and there is always room for that type player.

Thats what he said about passing on Floyd the year. Said something to the effect of he would be a monster 1 Tech, but you dont draft 1 Techs in the first.

I dont agree with it. Then best DL he ever coached had a top 15 pick at 1 Tech, but thats what he said

Im noy saying we shouldn't. In fact Id love to add Brown. If I can convince myself Marinelli was blowing smoke and may actually target him, he would be one of my pet cats.

Just dont think he will

Good post and agree with most your players moved except for Hardy. Only way I'm ok with hardy is if he is cheap. No way I give money to him. No way to tell how he comes back.

I hate your draft. No way should we draft a DT in the 1st. Dallas has said for years that 1st rounders have to start and I don't see a rookie starting over crawford. Also they have said you don't draft 1 techs in the 1st round.

Kevin johnson is way to hands on. He can be flagged every snap. Way to touchy for today's nfl.

Drango is the only one I like but I think he goes way before 3.

isnt Maxwell the penalty machine in seattle?

7 flags (tied for 19th in NFL) in 591 snaps.

The Seahawks Tharold Simon has 8 flags (tied 14th) in just 296 snaps.

Simon's penalty rating (-2.7) is the third worst among CBs, Maxwell's (-0.1) is tied for 35th worst.

For comparison, Orlando Scandrick is tied for 33rd with 6 flags and his penalty rating (-1.3) is tied for the 8th worst.

A mock is suppose to be mocking what dallas would do not what you would do. Dallas isn't drafting a 1 tech in the 1st. Not going to happen.

who said it was a mock?

Then what is it. Please stop wasting people time with post about what your madden game does of your GM. That doesn't matter.

But if you want to say what you think dallas will do based off history and players you think they will like, then post away.

It's useless to say what you want since we'll you have no power

It's not an opinion if it's right. That's called a fact. So go ahead and play your madden game adding players you want that Dallas would never do and have no interest in.
