Twitter: Cowboys Signing Aldon Smith to 1-yr/$4M Deal (must be reinstated first)

[Typhus]

hmmm atleast we are kicking tires. I would get ride of crawford now...Use the money saved by booting crawford on his deal. But man he didn't play in what 4 years. BTW speaking of someone not playing in 2 years is Randy Gregory still a cowboy lol

Why does everyone want to get rid of Crawford,, Crawford is like the first bank of the Dallas Cowboys... restructure waiting to happen, and retain.

I say load up on DE (pass rushers)

If Gregory and Smith are reinstated, I don’t see us going DL early at all. Unless a blue chip guy like Kinlaw falls to us, DE and DT are likely going to be set already.

 

[Rayman70]

So with him and Gregory we still need a de. Lol

we have crawford

 

[Kaiser]

Randy Gregory, Aldon Smith, David Irving (maybe)...who knows how many others?

“You’re gonna need a bigger bong.”

Nahh, we are on NBA rules now. Irving could be a team captain now.

Tyrone Crawford 9 mil
Aldon Smith. 4 mill

13 mil total.

Clowney wants 16
Griffin prolly would take 8-12

 

[StarBoyz83]

we have crawford

So with those 3 we still need a de

This is true Quincy. To be fair though it sounds like the salary isn’t guaranteed. They can cut him if he isn’t looking good in camp.

Who told us that? Have we heard his potential CAP hit, yet?
I'm praying it's closer to $2 than it is $4

 

[Landryhat73]

This is a great signing if he is sober. Supposedly he has turned his life around according to Jay Glazer.

 

[ShortRound]

“Clean and Sober”

lol nice!

Cant wait for the Aldon Smith and Gregory locker mate buddy posts to start.

Like … why does it always smell like old bong water when I walk past you two lockers,, and your always giggling like 12 yrs old girls, and I have to constantly pick up twinky wrappers.... says the locker room janitor.
Dang... I just quoted myself,, my bad... maybe I ate an edible by accident.

2 mil base salary. And 2 mil in incentives.

Wow. Was not expecting this.

Love that he's back with Tomsula and the signing
Why the **** did we have to pony up $4M though?

1 or 2 mil guaranteed? If we don't like him, cut him. That was the cost of our lottery ticket.
If we do like him, 4 mil is not much for a rotational DE.

 

[kumizi]

Aldon and Gregory can be accountability buddies.

Gregory and Smith don't stop us from drafting anyone.

Not a single one of our free agent signings have done that at any position, outside of possibly 3T with Hill being the top pick last year.

 

[Kaiser]

Non guaranteed 2 million base salary and 2 million in incentives?

There is nothing to lose with this move

Literally nothing if the contract isn't guaranteed.

People forget that Quinn was considered somewhat of a gamble last year and we were on the hook for real money in that case. That move turned out great, I'll wait and see what happens here.

 

[LifetimeBoysFan]

Well this one just came out of left field. Rest of the NFL focused on Clowney and we get this for 4M including incentives. They never cease to amaze at the bargains they sign in free agency. Hopefully he is a Quinn 2.0 or better.

 

[Kaiser]

I love The Cure, but Robert Smith needs to let that look go. It didn't age well.

Then definitely don't google what he looks like now. I'm begging you, don't do it.

 

[buybuydandavis]

2 mil base salary. And 2 mil in incentives.

Gets better every second.

Word on guaranteed money?
