IRVING - Cowboys sources tell us they are prioritizing pass-rushers in free-agency shopping and an NFL source tells us to put just-cut Eagles standout Trent Cole on the Dallas 'wish list.' Brian Orakpo's place on that wish list? Much lower ...


And while a visit to Valley Ranch is not yet planned, NFL sources tell **click-bait**.com that Cole is on the team's "wish list'' -- and that pass-rushers are being prioritized by the Dallas Cowboys as free agency approaches.

On a level down from there: Texas native Brian Orakpo, the oft-injured Commanders pass-rusher who, Cowboys sources tell us, Dallas has "minor interest'' in.

I just posted this too. I'm not surprised were in on so many pass rushers names. We need an upgrade immediately. Obviously we've been linked to hardy Cole and orakpo already

No he's washed up. 32 years old no thanks . If he was still good the Eagles would've kept him .

I would love Trent Cole on a reasonable deal. 3 years $5M per with no guaranteed $ past the 2nd year and I'd sign him 1st thing Tuesday. He'd be perfect as a SDE who can still get 6-8 sacks.

Probably more than that.

Washed up? He was still one of the Eagles best pass rushers. It ain't like he's signing a 5 year deal. He'd be a helluva stop-gap DE.

Neither one of them were good when it mattered. Ware did what he's been doing the last few seasons. Starting off great and then wearing down in the 2nd half of the season. He was invisible the last 8-9 games. Manning got worse as the weather got worse.

Yeah. Leading your team to the SB isn't good

I guess Suh isn't a good player either

This idea that FAs aren't good bc their teams wouldn't let them go is ridiculous...

Oh you dont know by now? People have these fantasy contracts in mind..where the player gets absolutely shafted but agrees to it just because

Brian Orakpo will finish the season on IR as he has 3 other years. His bicep tear will never heal because there is no real treatment.
