With all due respect to some great posters here, if you think the Cowboys are "saving money" just for the sake of saving money then you are absolutely off base.
Do I think salary cap is a factor in decisions being made? Yes. It should be. But ability also factors into the situation.
Do I think teams are waiting until week two to bring in veterans? Yes, to some degree. If they aren't sure about a player being an upgrade that will cost them cap they are not going to lock themselves into a contract that they can't get out of if the player can't play.
This way if we bring in a player and he doesn't work out we can move on and keep churning looking for a guy who can fill the role we need him to fill. It's good business.
If you guys think they cut Bailey just to save money, then you are delusional. They cut Bailley for the same reason they cut Dez. They weren't convinced he could still perform at a high level so they moved on.
If Dez or Bailey are going to get deals this year it is most likely to happen this week, if they are viewed as probably being able to play. The risk is now a lot less for the acquiring team.
