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

[slick325]

It should not effect anything

It shouldn't at all. But the Cowboys M.O. is not to double down on positions that are already highly paid or already have a high draft pick.

I hope they take a DT early. But, I fear they won't.

We need fat oak trees across the dline. That's how you bully teams in Jan. It won't do a darn thing for us in the post season if we draft a skill position guy at 12. Just won't. Unless it's a RB . Which I can't see.

Tet McMillan

 

[rambo2]

I don't care if it were 23 rupees, it's too much for a player like him i'm sorry! We're paying the top tier free agent price, he needs to test the market maybe he gets more

No, it isn't. Osa is a good player and he fills a huge need. They will be signing other players and will draft another dtackle.

 

[rambo2]

Terrible, Terrible signing. What a waste. Zero run defense and disappears way too much. Horrible signing, huge waste of $.

Lol

 

[rambo2]

Enjoy it. Because this is the only action in free agency you’re gonna get.


An overpay to a Cowboys “home grown player”.

That’s the FO special.

This isn't an overpay.

 

[rambo2]

I can't believe you don't see this. If Jerry pays Osa, then he can draft him some CBs and WRs and TEs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They can draft and sign whatever they want.

Tet McMillan

What good is a wr this high if we ignore the dline? How's this help us protect Dak? Don't get me wrong, I like McMillan alot. But I'm so tired of watching us get pushed up and down the field routinely. In Dec and Jan, ie cold weather meaningful games, a wr matters little.

What does he do well?

According to Pro Football Focus, Odighizuwa had 60 quarterback pressures last season, which tied for fifth among NFL defensive tackles

Maybe the DC sees something in him many of us do not. with that said I still have DT at the top of the needs list for the draft.

Eberflus' version of the 4-3 is big on quickness and not as much on size. Odighizuwa fits the mold. The problem is that despite having quickness, he's a good not great pass rusher, on top of being a good not great run stuffer. And I like him as a player and know this is the going rate, but if we sign him and the only other thing we do at DT is draft late-round picks, it's a fail.

3-tech is the engine that drives this version of the 4-3, and Odig is not the engine, he's a rail car. Sign him, but go into the draft with the goal of finding the engine.

It gives us an outstanding one two punch for several years. The dtackle class is deep. They still would be in position to get a good one. McMillan is a perfect fit for Dallas. He would make all of the receivers better.

Bring back Tank, Osa, Lawson.

Sign Poona Ford.

Starters : Tank - Osa - Ford - Parsons

Depth : Kneeland - Mazi - Lawson / Williams

You wonder what these people do when the game is on?

 

[Cowboyny]

This isn't an overpay.

No it is not, that is his market and others will get more.

 

[Cowfan75Lives]

21 million just because he's one of our own. I don't even blink at this embarrassment of a franchise anymore. Lock up all the players that can't get it done as a team and bring in nobody. Recipe for success.

 

[GMO415]

So no Micah, I guess he's being traded on draft day?

 

[plymkr]

Above 21 million!?! IDK about this one. If this is our big Free Agent signing then we’re screwed.

 

[Valkyr]

I just can't believe Jerry has ever pronounced his name properly.

What is wrong with you people? This is a good signing. He is one of the top free agents.

0 Chance Micah is traded lol

 

[FaSho]

I like Osa, and 21 doesn't seem so bad with the big increase in the cap...
