it's this simple all the news media all the forms and the fan base overreact they think every single player who's attached to the Cowboys could have been had and yet they blamed Jerry Jones for not getting them but the fact is most of these players already had their teams in mind goes all the way back to the trade deadline last year with Darius Leonard he was going to the Eagles even though it was close he had his mind made-up this is just how it goes Bobby Wagner was never coming to the Cowboys last year he wanted to go back to Seattle however the year before we possibly could have had him but this happens there's hundreds of scenarios everybody's linked to the Cowboys Jerry's blame for not signing them and literally there really wasn't any chance for them to be a cowboy in the 1st place it's all generated by clickbait nonsense fandom and social media...

He was never coming here. I stopped caring about this.

If the Titans re-upped with more $$$$ they would have been his first choice.......it's always about the money and don't believe anything else but

Rightfully so, a much more physical team.

Baltimore Ravens Fans be like:

Now we have clarity. He and his agent were never coming to Dallas and they were hoping Dallas would raise his market value thus engaging in a bidding war with the Ravens, knowing full well he would take the Ravens offer. Many content creators and fans were punked yet again. This is the usual operendi. It all makes sense now, at least with Henry.

Not sure why you drew this conclusion. Dallas never reached out, so, of course, Baltimore was his No. 1 option. We have no idea what would have happened if Dallas had reached out.

"His first choice was the Ravens." His words. Had we called, was he even serious about coming here or would have it been to just drive up his price to the Ravens? On 1 hand, its weird that we never called, but on the other, how many times have we seen players claim they wanted to be a Cowboy, only to go the highest bidder? I am a skeptic. In the end, he made the right call because that team is ready to win a sb now. We aren't.

Don't know what he would have done if we called. The fact that we didn't makes it easy for him to say that his first choice was the Ravens.

It's like saying my first choice was to eat a hamburger when no one offered me a steak. (OK, in this case, he got offered the steak instead of the hamburger, but since the hamburger would have been delivered to his house, maybe he would have felt that was worth it)

He was never coming here.

Never. I don't get those who thought he was or there was a high chance he was.

 

[Typhus]

He was never coming here. I stopped caring about this.

Same as Bobby Wagner.

 

[Captain-Crash]

you only come to Dallas at the end of your career for one last pay day. You don't even have to play hard. shrugs

SJ:How does being the stating of the running back for the Dallas cowboys sound?
DH: Great. Excited for the opportunity.
SJ: We are prepared to off you a $1m base with incentives up to 1.5. How does that sound? .........Hello.....Hello Derrick. You there?
