Twitter: Cowboys and T. Basham

[JoeKing]

Right. When do we get to see the results of their plan? Presumably, your plan is to eventually win, correct?

Jerry spoke of "the plan" during the Dak Prescott press conference. He is clearly intent on winning Super Bowls, this is the goal. So the plan is obviously to turn things around and win.

Many fans here were screaming from the mountain tops for Poe and Griffin last year. I have seen many players that were over paid this year, either banking on past exploits or hoping on them hitting the sweet spot of the development curve. Also most of the FA signings are getting a notch below perennial pro bowl level. The deals that hurt are the trades, at least two trades I would have gladly of done brockers and brown.

Basham at $3-5m is a way better signing than Hendrickson at triple that.

This plan has been in place for a few years now. So when does the turn around start?

Basham would be a good signing if we get him.

I agree he has some power and moves on the edge.

Can't say I know much about him, but if the Jets, who have cap room to burn, don't want him....that can't be a good sign.

He must want more than they think he is worth and I dont see how thats a match for Dallas.

This is why we needed to see more of Anae, but we were chasing that Super Bowl until the end last year.

Use the draft only to improve then don't play the mid round guys.

Solid strategy.

It will never be soon enough for those as impatient as yourself.

Very strange wording from Mike here..not sure exactly how to title this post..but it sounds like something could be brewing here..not trying to mislead anyone w a false title..but that's the best I could come up with

Thoughts on this guy?

It means the Cowboys are interested and have a price in mind but they are waiting to see if anyone else offers Basham more. If he gets a better offer, Dallas will move on down the list to the next K-Mart special. Even if they sign him he is an upgrade over Armstrong, but not much more.

I guess I expect more than zero championship games in 25 years. Shame on me.

we the fans been punked for 25 years running.

I think he means no one is throwing money at basham so he'll wait cause he has to untill he's cheap enough for teams like the cowboys to offer minimum 1 year deals.

Needs to do away with the Pee Wee Herman sack dance, though.

25 years ? You must be one patient person.

I would imagine this is to replace Aldon. While not a stat sheet stuffer,

If they sign him I would expect they’d be moving on from Aldon and not Armstrong

Ya, the players agent is his source to get his name going on twitter with teams like the Cowboys.

Finally, we agree on something.

His name is Basham.

Meets Jeds criteria.

I've witnessed the Cowboys win 5 Super Bowls. You're damn right I'm patient for the 6th.

Why are we fussing "at edge" with Gregory and Lawrence on board?
I don't see us signing a "defensive starter" at DE unless it's to *extend* Gregory.

Because both Lawrence and Gregory have histories of missing games and you only have Armstrong and Anae behind them.
