Keeping track of all the moves and rumors involving the Cowboys in free agency.
The Dallas Cowboys free agency rumors have already begun. Starting at 12 PM today, the Cowboys can negotiate deals with the agents for players scheduled to become free agents from other teams. They could already sign their own free agents but at this point have not made any moves in that direction besides keeping ERFA David Irving. They cannot, however, execute contracts they negotiate in the tampering period before Thursday at 4 PM, which is the official start of free agency.
Some basic Cowboys free agent info:
Cap Space: $3.2 million (per Over The Cap)
Unrestricted Free Agents: QB Kellen Moore, QB Mark Sanchez, RB Lance Dunbar, RB Darren McFadden, WR Brice Butler, WR Terrance Williams, TE Gavin Escobar, G Jonathan Cooper, G Ronald Leary, DT Richard Ash, DT Jack Crawford, DE Ryan Davis, DT Terrell McClain, LB Andrew Gachkar, LB Justin Durant, LB Rolando McClain, CB Brandon Carr, S Barry Church, CB Morris Claiborne, S J.J. Wilcox
Team Needs: DE, CB, WR, TE
New, rumors, signing:
— Cowboys interest in Kenny Britt?
Per a source with knowledge of the situation, the Cowboys have expressed interest in Britt.
—- If DeMarcus Ware is coming back to Dallas, his back looks to be in good shape.
As Cowboys weigh a DeMarcus Ware return, I'm told an MRI last week looked good following season ending surgery on bulging disc in back.

—- The Cowboys tendered an offer to ERFA David Irving for $615,000 retaining his services for 2017.
—- Will the Cowboys be able to keep Jack Crawford?
#Cowboys DE Jack Crawford has interest from roughly 5 teams as of now. Chance he could return to Dallas. #Colts, #Bills & #Jaguars in play

—- Dallas has to decide what’s going to happen with Tony Romo. If they move him to another team, they get $5.1 million of cap room. If they release him, they can either eat all of his dead money in one year, or spread it out over two. For details on that, go here.

—- Terrell McClain playing for Washington?
Surprising team in DL Terrell McClain mix: #Commanders. Prepared to lose Chris Baker, want inside penetrator. #Falcons, #Seahawks also on him.

—- Barry Church is a wanted man.
According to sources, the Panthers are expected to make a run at Barry Church, who will become a free agent when the new league year opens Thursday afternoon.
Church, who’s spent the first seven years of his career in Dallas, is one of nine Cowboys’ defenders set to hit the open market. He’s not much of a ballhawk – totaling just five career interceptions – but if the Panthers land Church, he could take over at strong safety, which would allow Kurt Coleman to move back to free safety.
There are reportedly other teams that are interested.
— Would the Cowboys consider making a run at Sheldon Richardson, a player the Jets want to move?
