Cowboys add nearly 11 million of cap space on Friday

Is that the guy who flamed out with Tampa?

Not sure. The one I was looking at with Tampa was Jose Borregales.

Aguilar is getting some love right now because he went 8 for 8 in a USFL game, including a 55-yard game-winner. Frankly, I'd be OK with cutting Vizcaino and bringing in both Aguilar and Coglin, but I think Coglin may be the more accurate kicker.

 

[gimmesix]

He hit 8 in one game not long ago.

He did, but he's still at 85 percent for the season and has missed an extra point. Far from perfect, but at this point, we're probably not going to find any 90-something percent kickers (although ours last year made 90 percent of his FGs).

The franchise tag amount for RBs will also drop a bit once Zeke’s old salary is no longer counting against the top 5 salaries at the position.

 

[vlad]

I can only imagine the talent shopping spree on the horizon.

That seems like some softening em up money, you know for when the line doesn’t block like it does for some other RB.

 

[jazzcat22]

Use part of it to bring back Zeke. Once they see how poor the RB group is, they will need to.

 

[Havic]

RB2 please. I don’t trust what’s on the roster. But just say no to Zeke.

I think Ronald jones is a serviceable 2 tbh

 

[Kwyn]

I can only imagine the talent shopping spree on the horizon.

Hasn’t the plan, since Zeke was cut, to use that money as part of extensions on CeeDee and Diggs?

Edit: just saw the additional tweet explaining this as well as injury settlements and practice squad elevations.

With so much talent they should win something in....say.....three decades.

Let’s wait until 3 decades are complete before we write this franchise off!

 

[Silverstar]

I wouldn't mind bringing in Marlon Mack on a 1 yr deal. He's a good RB (4.4 career avg) and younger than Zeke at 27.

 

[Xavier187]

Honestly you can make more cap space with cuts or trades of J. Lewis, N. Gallimore and a few others.

And next year you could technically move away from Gallup.

So there's always a way on more money freed up. Honestly they could just wait snd see who gets cut loose. And go from there.

If the Cowboys where interested in Hopkins He would already be here. He would need to be here asap to work with Dak.

 

[QuincyCarterEra]

How I would prioritize the money:

1. Extend Lamb
2. Extend Diggs
3. Extend Hooker
4. Clowney or Ngakoue
5. Dalton Risner
6. Hopkins

According to Over the Cap, the NFL's salary cap will rise from 224.8M this year to 256M in 2024.

Extra 30M of cap space next year for every team....boom!

 

[DuncanIso]

Zeke…1yr 10 million.

8)

 

[pacy]

Friday? I thought the 1st was tomorrow.

 

[Xavier187]

How about
Clark DE, Golladay WR and Evans LB
Resign Lamb and Diggs. And wait till next year for Dak.
Move Gallimore, Lewis and a few others for picks.
And wait and see on a OG.

Maybe trade for Teven Jenkins and make him full time OG?

[KingintheNorth]

Stephen will hem and haw about that cap room being reserved for Diggs and Lamb, only to talk about how greedy they are when they won't sign for a discount.

I've seen this movie before.

 

[OmerV]

Is there anyone available that would qualify as a splash?

DeAndre Hopkins or Leonard Fournette. I'm not arguing for (or against) either, just saying they would make a splash

 

[12+88=7]

Just cross your fingers for Dalvin Cook to be released after June 1st.

That's the player that would complete the offense.

So they still have two more seasons? Ha. In your face haters.
