we'll we aren't the only ones. See http://www.bloggingtheboys.com/ for article (a little down the page) titled Cowboys Gamble With Future. Interesting comments on events at VR. Mentions Cowboys were competitive team in 05 & assumption was that addition of RT, FS, K & LB would do it. Well, doesn't look like Jones & Parcells are following the plan. First clue, almost not a clue, was releasing Glover (which was expected). Had Cowboys stopped there, the plan was on track. However, it was following by not resigning Campbel & now cutting Keyshaw, a Parcells man all the way. Some moves were smart, some calculated risks but signing of TO is real risk cause we would be putting everything in one basket.
Most of us understand necessity of cutting Glover & not resigning Campbell & even cutting Keyshawn but in Key's case only if we have a WR to replace him. Doesn't look like any deal with TO is any where near done and might not even be in the works. Which leaves us to wonder what is going on? If no TO, will we resign Key and/or add at least 1 more WR. In that case why did we wait until best of so-so class has been picked over. But same holds true also for slow pace of our FA signings. I know it only 5th day of FA, but while we've added versatile OL player in Kosier & Ayodale will be our ILB replacing Dat we've yet to directly address RT, FS, K, OLB & now WR, etc. Since FB Sowell (Jets) coming in Friday, he'd be upgrade at FB replacing Polite & signing McGinest for reasonable price would be big upgrade while giving time for whoever we draft at OLB to develop. But questions at other needs positions still remain.
Finally will LA get cut? With Glover, Dat & Keyshawn's departures, we've gotten younger & certainly LA wondering if he will be around after 1 April. Cowboys may be moving at snail's pace in FA but they still manage to make waves. As for possibly bringing Molds on once he released, don't see what he brings that Keyshawn didn't.
