Agreed. Very poorly managed the last few years of Garrett. I remember 2 years ago it was the most stacked d-line free agency class (you could of literally gotten Danny Shelton and Johnathan Hankins for the combined price of cutting Crawford) which would of also freed up the 2nd round pick for Juan thornhill (so basically immediately improve 3 defensive positions in one swoop) but of course we got the BS of "uhhh we like the guys we have".Damn. 3/4 of the DL replaced in one offseason. What an indictment on the former regime’s tired philosophy lol...
Cannot wait to see the growth/maturity in this defense! We have quietly added some serious pro bowl caliber talent to the unit, and upgraded the coaching staff.
We are young and raw (but talented) in the secondary, but man oh man, we have a stout front 7.
It's good that new management is basically like "I don't care who started last year where looking for improvements now"
Good point. It will all work out though because until the Cowboys get a young cheap talent at that spot there will always be someone out there for affordable price that will be better. 2 years though would give them more time like you saidI love this signing but I wonder what it would have cost them to sign him to a 2 year deal. I feel like it would have been more effective to get his replacement next offseason but not be forced into it. Would he have signed for $18m over 2 years? I mean the money is there with a crawford cut. 1 year deals are nice but we don't even have his replacement on the roster.
