Signed by Cowboys Cowboys signing Saints first-rounder DE Payton Turner

[CCBoy]

Another waste of money.

So this claims non-defense discretionary spending?

 

[BoyzBlaster]

Or defecating

That would definitely be taking it up a notch I like it.

Cannon fodder

Dumpster diving again

 

[John813]

Lol. Same ole routine. Same ole results in January

 

[eromeopolk]

Same bottom feeding FA signings that Jerry Dumbo GM Jones would sign late. He picked up the trash early but it still stinks.

Keep drinking the Jonesboys kool aid.

Cannon fodder

What color bags? Ever pulled a lanyard?

Things began coming together for him in 2024, when he was available for a career-high 16 games and, as a rotational player, delivered two sacks and three quarterback hits along with 21 combined tackles, a career-best in that category as well.

He joins a defensive line headlined by Micah Parsons and Osa Odighizuwa, as Mazi Smith looks to take another step forward as well, and with Solomon Thomas waiting to meet him as well when OTAs get underway.

Looking at the in-house options, one option is Caelen Carson. Although Carson has more comfort as a press man corner, he does have good quickness and the potential to grow into the role in the slot. Assuming Bland and Diggs return healthy, you could pencil Carson in and learn while on the job. Or the other option is for the Cowboys add a boundary cornerback in free agency like Jonathan Jones, or a reunion with Stephon Gilmore, and move Bland back in the slot. Bland thrived in that role as a rookie in 2022 and had five interceptions playing the position.

Another option is for Dallas to get a veteran in free agency to occupy that role and outright replace Lewis externally. A popular name to watch is Mike Hilton, who spent the last four seasons with the Cincinnati Bengals. Hilton is a durable player who has played 64 out of 68 possible regular-season games for the Bengals.

This has been repeated many times, the FO is completely incompetent.

 

[morasp]

Classic example of why you don't draft a potential guy in the first round.

 

[Blast From The Past]

So not sure what he has done. Was drafted 28th in 2021 and has been on IR at least two different years. I can't remember him even being a first round pick, the name is slightly familiar.

He was the Saints shiny new toy not long ago all sparkly and looking good. Now he is ours. Secret sauce for the Jones boys is fa signing former 1st rounders for peanuts and expecting to get even on the returns and more. Does the wallet good though I'll tell ya.

 

[big dog cowboy]

Yes he would, that shows you how bad this signing is

Oh my goodness. Not only no, but hell no.

 

[Denim Chicken]

4 years in the league, 5 more career sacks than me.

Meh, I won't know how to feel until someone posts th advanced stats

 

[Redline360]

Actually never heard of him.

Just from the brief search it's not great. Have a feeling when I dive deeper into his stats it's not going to get better knowing Jerry lol

 

[ElGatoGrande]

Jerry luvs himself a bargain, more than anything else in the world I think. Hopefully one of these lotto tickets will at least return enough to buy another lotto ticket.

 

[Davidlee1973]

6’6 270 defensive end. Means Tank goes bye bye and Turner is cheap

Yeah and he play like it too.

 

[Mr Cowboy]

Was Taco not available?

 

[StarBoyz83]

Dlaws replacement

 

[RonWashington]

Him and Thomas dont really change anything imo. At best Turner is a 4th DE and Thomas is a poor mans Golston

Maybe Thomas former DL coach with the Jets now in Dallas talked him up to his new bosses .

I can already hear rock for brains Jerry saying “We feel like signing a guy like Turner is like gettin an extra 1st rounder this year…”

Would love to see just one single solitary legit free agent signing sometime this decade.

Keep hoping.......
