Lions defender with $67 million in bank projected to be Cowboys target​

The Cowboys continue to look at the markets to find help, and they might be able to snare help in the defensive middle if they're patient.​

Sign me up, but might be a bit expensive for them

They have 3 NTs.

They have four DTs. That three of them can play NT isn't relevant IMO because they are going to keep four DTs at least. I think McNeill also is seen as more than an NT. He has 11.5 sacks in four years, just two fewer than our 3-tech.

That’s all you need to know. Worth every million and the trade cost. Also, if they do this it means they think they are very competitive for a conference title

This. The Jones Jokers want to be taken seriously? Do this and we will have a path to the playoffs.

Not rumours at all this is just one reporters opinion that they should target him. SMH false title giving me fake hope.

That is the latest craze. Fisher is the king of it.

I doubt this happens but if it does......

After paying Osa they are done at DT.

I'm not saying I expect them to sign him, but one doesn't really have too much to do with the other. It's not even the same position. Reader would basically be on a one year deal of about a $7Mish with bonuses and the such. About the same as Murray costs us at LBer. One and done contracts don't hurt your cap health unless exorbitant. As far as need for the player goes, we all know how disappointing Mazi has been and 7th round draft picks don't often play much of a role year 1 as much as fans want to assume they will even though year after year it doesn't happen too often. This team needs to improve it's run defense if it wants to win the games that matter most against the top teams and other than the "hope and a prayer" approach, hasn't done much yet too do so.

It would be a nice consolation prize for passing on Grant

McClay should definitely wear the “L” for advocating for Mazi.

Dude has nearly zero production at Michigan and clearly they didn’t do enough investigating about his football character and passion for the game.

I haven’t given up on him but this is his 3rd year and proverbial “make it or break it” season as far as I’m concerned.

He's been doing what he's asked to do. Just doesn't show up in the stat column.
