would love to sign Nicks, but I don't know if Jerry is going to be willing to throw a ton of money at him. Same thing with Calais Campbell who I really liked coming out of " tha U. "
I have a less expensive list of players that I would like to see signed. I don't know how realistic it is since I haven't heard much news regarding these guys and their current teams when it comes to negotiations, but here it goes anyways. No particular order:
DE, Kendall Langford. 6'6, 300 lbs, 25 years old.
As of right now, I'm not sure he'll hit the FA market, but the team supposedly opened extencion talks with him in August and it's now January and nothing has changed. He wouldn't command top dollars, nor would I'd give them to him, but IF he's willing to take a contract similar to what Doug Free got this past summer, I'd sign him.
DE, Phillip Merling, 6'5, 300 lbs, 26 years old.
He'll be a significantly cheaper signing than Langford because he hasn't proven much yet. I think he's one of these players who would be looking for a place where he can start and might be willing to sign a 1 or 2 year deal on the low just to show what he has. He's a guy I'd be very interested in, even if he just ends up being a depth player for an initial low contract.
DE, Adam Carriker, 6'6, 315 lbs, 27 years old
This is another one of " I don't know " how interested the Deadskins are in bringing him back. If he hits the market, I'd be all over him for the right price.
* If the Cowboys don't go after Campbell, 2 out of the trio above would be a good haul.
G Deuce Lutui, 6'4, 340 lbs, 28 years old
Lutui is a very intriguing player for the right price if he becomes available. He's battled some weight issues in the past, but he's a very solid player just starting the prime of his career.
G/T Vernon Carey, 6'5, 340 lbs, 30 years old
Here's a reasonable target who the Cowboys, I think, will absolutely be interested in. Carey can play 4 out of the 5 positions on the line, which is something the Cowboys love. He's coming off some injuries, which means he won't cost a ton of money to sign, and he's not returning to the Dullphins ( alot of bad blood with Jeff Ireland ). If he checks out physically, he'd be an instant starter and better player than Kosier. Keep this name in mind because I think he's a legit target for Dallas.
G Jeremy Zuttah, 6'5, 310 lbs, 25 years old
Here's another intriguing prospect. He's coming off a knee injury, but it wasn't catastrophic. He's only 25 years old, so he falls into the " young and cheap " category. He's the type of player the Cowboys should to go after even if it's just for depth purposes.
Will post the DBs/LBs later.
