Austin and Spencer among top 10 available FA

[SDCowboy]

Miles will absolutely be on a 53 man roster next year, and it could be ours for the vet min

Please no. We've moved on. Lets keep it that way.

 

[Tabascocat]

One of them comes back......my money is on Miles. Don't want him but I think his career in Dallas isn't done

 

[JoeyBoy718]

Rather cut ties with all the "old core" players within the next 2 years. Don't bring back Spencer or Austin. Next up on the chop block: Free, Witten and . . . Romo.

 

[BAZ]

Freeman lower than Spencer? Ouch.

 

[Redball Express]

Is there a health/attitude problem with Davin Joseph? Depending on his money demands he would be worth a look IMHO.

I have heard nothing.

Maybe someone can add something.

 

[WoodysGirl]

According to NFL Network, these are the best players not yet signed as of now:
1 RB Chris Johnson
2 TE Jermichael Finley
3 G Davin Joseph
4 G Travelle Wharton
5 WR Sidney Rice
6 WR Santonio Holmes
7 WR Miles Austin
8 DT Kevin Williams
9 DE Anthony Spencer
10 QB Josh Freeman
I wonder how many of these will be signed before the draft.

That's a whose who list of injuries and likely under performance..
1. underperformance
2. Spine/Neck injury - not cleared to play
3. Injury/underperformance
4. Considering retirement
5. Injury issues
6. Underperformance
7. Injury issues/Underperformance
8. Age
9. Not cleared to play
10. Underperformance

Of that list, the only healthy candidate worth considering is Josh Freeman

Travelle Wharton seems to be coming off a good year. Wonder if Dallas will look at him if they don't add a guard in the draft.

He is supposedly leaning towards retirement.

 

[lostar2009]

I hope not. His success dictates how high our comp pick for him will be next year.

I doubt anything at all. I think he recieved a minimal from the Giants but thats all.

 

[AbeBeta]

they cut him, they don't get a comp pick for him...

1000th explanation of this!

most of these either have injury concerns or character concerns....not sure about Davin Joseph.

The fact that neither has been signed tells you all you need to know. They're done.

Nobody is going to sign Spencer until his injury has been rehabbed. Pat Angerer is another guy in that situation.

 

[Primetime42]

I've read that Austin is a hot commodity and his choices are reportedly down to Shop Rite and Whole Foods. They're probably outbidding each other right now.

Stay classy.

 

[TheSport78]

Stay classy.

I will, San Diego.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Stay classy.

There's no such thing on Cowboys Zone lol.

 

[Future]

Austin is in good company (Sidney Rice and Santonio Holmes) of once promising WRs.

He's probably the last of the three I would want, from just a football standpoint.

 

[Risen Star]

Spencer should sign with Dallas for the vet minimum. He made his 'bonus' the last two years.

I think that's how it's going to turn out.

Hey, as long as the guy doesn't stop the progress of George Selvie and Jeremy Mincey I'm fine with it.

 

[COWBOYSNUM1]

One of them comes back......my money is on Miles. Don't want him but I think his career in Dallas isn't done

I would like to have Miles back if he were to sign for the minimum. But if I had to put money on it, my money would be on Spencer being the one coming back @ the minimum or very close to it.

 

[ufcrules1]

That is a list of has-beens for the most part.

 

[ufcrules1]

I would take Spencer back for the minimum only but heck, he may not even be ready to play at the start of the season.
