Cowboys source, Cowboys close to deal with Osa $21 Million a year

[TwentyOne]

The narrative from our FO is that we dont want our own players to hit FA so we dont get into a bidding war.

So we offer them exaggerated contracts which they wouldnt even get on the free market.

Good job SJ! Always nice to make business with you.

So between Osa and Spotrac's estimate of Parsons deal Dallas could be looking at over 60 million a year for these two

Let's see:

Dak 60
Lamb 34
Diggs 21
Osa 21
Parsons 35(esti, prolly low)

That's 171 mil. Salary cap will be around 275 mil for 25.

Soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, that leaves 100 mil for the next 17 starters. That's 5.8 mil per player. Nope. Just, nope. That means you'll have JAGs(or worse) at at least 5-6 positions.

Won't work, has never worked, will never work.

I believe PFF had him projected to get $25M/year so this isn't a bad signing

 

[Blast From The Past]

I will be so pissed off when this happens.

Talk about paying mediocrity.

It's dumb. It's asinine. It lacks any hint of intelligence. So it will happen.

Osa is a rotational piece at best but disappears for far to much for my likings even in that role. Paying him to stay must entail a sure fire plan for him one would think.

And a bottom 5 run stopper amongst UTs.

Agree 100%.......below average. I am fine with Osa as long as he's paired with a top tech 1/NT and NOT Mazi.

Out of 219 DL:
Sacks: 12th
Hurries: 5th
Pressures: 3rd

We don't owe Micah a damn thing. He hasn't done anything meaningful that tells me he's worthy of the big bag. If he feels slighted if we sign OSA, tough crap. He's not TJ Watt...not even close. That guy has earned respect. Not Micah.

[Rayman70]

Micah plays just like a linebacker that thinks he's an all world edge rusher/end. Chew on that.

 

[Loso86]

Before yall have a heart attack, his cap the first 3 years won't be near 21mil

 

[CATCH17]

The reality is.. Most NFL DTs suck.

He’s better than average by a little so he will get paid.

 

[CATCH17]

OSA is a slightly better than a jag. Odd signing

It’s because the majority of NFL DTs suck.

 

[morasp]

Hopefully they won't neglect DT early on with such a strong draft class this year. Last year was especially good for WRs and we missed out.

 

[Gameover]

LET'S GET THIS BOWL

ALL IN

WE GOT WORK TO DO

Anybody associated with the Cowboys who gets asked about the SB, their reply should be: WE GOT WORK TO DO

NO SELF PITY HERE

BOOKEEND 30 + 30

Watered down league I suppose

 

[Gameover]

wow, surprised they are paying up

Their best defensive line pick the past 10 years?

 

[DCBoysfan]

Watered down league I suppose

Well everyone can't be Russell Maryland.

 

[youngjerryjones]

I'm sure Fish was like the 11th person to post this and Coogs was just too lazy to go looking for the first one to break the news, lol. I keed, I keed!

Coog needs to start re-posting my stuff instead of washed up Mike Fisher

 

[rambo2]

Out of 219 DL:
Sacks: 12th
Hurries: 5th
Pressures: 3rd

And the people in here complain.

21m is pretty steep
