Signed by Cowboys Cowboys sign DE Dante Fowler

Shocked he didn’t get more with how the league values sacks.
I think the analytics community is bringing down the sack values. If the pressure rates aren't there to support the odds of them duplicating the sack totals the big pay day wont be as much. A few years ago Fowler probably gets a 3 year deal after a 10+ sack season. Now the guys like OSA can get paid without the sack totals while Fowler has to settle for a lower tier deal. Sacks are just viewed as too volatile and random to pay guys on
 
And because I'm known as a beacon of positivity, after perusing the Commanders forum, I'm reading a consensus of fans their that are truly sad to see him go.

I can't remember the last time we've gotten a FA that was actually missed by his former teams fans

That's some positivity for yo ashes
The last time was when they signed Jack Sanborn 2 days ago.
 
He's not resigned yet and helped last season. Lawson would still be good depth at the line of scrimmage.
 
Competition is a good thing.
Yeah but signing Lawson isn’t really competition though. He had a pretty good yeah and likely commands guaranteed money on the open market. Those guys are typically penciled onto the final 53 going into camp.
 
Congrats to Jerry & Stephen for finally parting with some of that do-re-mi that you guys have!

Is this the long-awaited birth of the newfound Big Spenders From Big D? Well, it's about time!
