That is a very minimal type deal that I am surprised the Patriots apparently did not want to match.
Speaks volumes.
Terrible signing.

Solid pickup. Wish it would have been a two year deal though.
Yeah, if the Cowboys where the high bidder he must not be in that much demand.Odd that there wasn't more of a market for Fleming. The rest of the league must think he sucks.

Good signing. Sorry Jerry! I take it all back.......for about 10 minutes! Now signed Bowman and Suh!!!
It is 1.5M more Byron Bell's one year deal last year, so it is conceivably in the ball park of a swing tackle. A rich one, but still not outlandish.He's still the starter barring a significant draft pick.
So far only says that LaAdrian Waddle got a 1 year deal. I suspect it's in the $2 million area, but just an educated guess.I'm curious what Waddle got. I just checked and haven't been able to find the numbers.
It's possible that teams just aren't sure what to make of either guy. Are they starters or just solid backups?
Maybe, he just wanted to play for the Cowboys.Yeah, if the Cowboys where the high bidder he must not be in that much demand.
Upper end swing tackle type money.
Just a shade above what Andre Smith got from the Bengals last year.
wish we could afford SuhGood signing. Sorry Jerry! I take it all back.......for about 10 minutes! Now signed Bowman and Suh!!!
Outsmarted by the Cowboys once again they were.Odd that there wasn't more of a market for Fleming. The rest of the league must think he sucks.
The Cowboys were in the market for a true free safety, but the asking price for Pro Bowler Earl Thomas of a first- and third-round pick by the Seattle Seahawks was simply too high, according to sources.
The Cowboys didn't deem any of the other safeties on the market, including Kenny Vaccaro, Eric Reid and Tyrann Mathieu (who signed with the Houston Texans) proper fits because their specialties are playing in the box, closer to the line of scrimmage.

Why two years for Looney?
Looney understands he's a backup. Fleming is likely hoping to start and play well enough to earn a big-time long-term deal.
