It’s like getting socks or underwear for Christmas

It’s like getting old pairs rewrapped

Ridiculously overpaid at $6.5M per year. They are panicking..The signed Basham for 2 years $6.5M. So your telling me a back up DE salary went up 100%? Jerry Dumbo GM Jones does it again.

Ok so randy had what 5-6 sacks and got 5 years at 70 million and we get Armstrong who had 5 sacks part time at 2 years 13 million. Randy is better at pressuring but this could end up being the better deal. Armstrong also blocked a punt or 2, too lazy to go look. We better draft a kid too.

 

[CowboyoWales]

if indeed they are sold on the player, more than 2 years is what I would expect

He's a back-up at an elite position of need. The improvement last year (under Quinn) gives hope.....he's 24 and they probably want to see whether that improvement was an outlier season or the basis of improvement. May have been overpaid by paid a couple of $, but it's no big issue.

Risen about to change his Zone avatar after all these years…

 

[Verdict]

I am not “excited” about this signing, but I don’t think he’s that much less of a player than Gregory. That’s not saying that Armstrong is all that and a bag of chips. I just don’t think that Gregory is that much better.

This contract will probably have less “rueage” on down the road than if we had signed Gregory. On the other hand the most distressing part of this signing (depending on structure) is that we overpaid a guy who has so far been a marginal player.

You pay guys like this minimum salaries, or something very close to that. Not 6 or 7 times the minimum.

6.5 million per for slop.

Untapped…potential

Now I'm waiting for the 5 year 8mil per deal for LVE to call this off-season a success

 

[TNCowboy]

Unbelievable. He's complete trash.

 

[dwreck27]

I’m not as mad because I was pretty confident that we were going to just simply give Gregory’s contract to Armstrong

 

[Gaede]

Best offseason ever

By that, I mean 2023. When we've got a top ten draft pick and Sean Payton's in charge.

 

[Gaede]

I'm honestly amazed that we would close with Armstrong before even getting close to Kearse. One was a back up role player, the other was the best safety we've had in years

 

[cowboyblue22]

now you understand why the cowboys will never win a championship lol

 

[Cowpolk]

Superbowl here we come

It’s like getting socks or underwear for Christmas

I recall a holiday or two like that...had to give the appearance of gratefulness for those gifts.
But something was better than nothing when times were hard - and they did come in use.

[Captain-Crash]

if they are some way we can get Jacklyn smith back we would be a lock for a division wild card.

 

[Nexx]
