hey they need depth added with Gallimore and hill and theres players left out there plus the draft. Calm down lets wait until game 1 and see the starting 22 before we get all up in arms and grab the pitch forks and torches

And you can't even try to tell us you will fix it in the draft as this isn't really a strong draft for DTs. There isn't even one worthy of the 10th pick and only a small handful that are worthy of our 2nd pick.

Their lack of any desire to fix the DT position after it burns them year after year is easily the most frustrating part of this entire thing.

We drafted Gallimore last year.

Body...dude has like a 45 PFF score, probably will get cut. If he doesn't..LOL

 

[Typhus]

Can I just get a fat guy, please?

Just a trash can full of dirt.

Dude was a pretty good DT at Clemson and won a national championship over Alabama. 4th round pick.

I'm gonna hold off for now, I just dropped $15k on autographed Ty Nsekhe memorabilia

nice job...lol

 

[Uncle_Hank]

Your funny. Hill isn't going anywhere. You don't invest a late 2nd round pick on a guy only to watch him take big steps forward and then cut him.

If you can't play, you can't play.

We could play Watkins some outside at left end in the role Red Bryant played for Seattle.

This was the first thing that I thought of when I saw this signing. He’d be very good in that role I think.

 

[Beaker42]

We gave up an item of value (6th round pick) for some magic beanstalk beans that didn’t even sprout. So now we want to discount the value of the pick given up?

6th rd picks are always more miss than hit. We all know it. I don’t want to hear about a certain lucky ******* from the University of Michigan either.

Might not make the team

Yeah you are right..everybody is stupid..Cowboys win so many championships..what are these idiot fans thinking?

 

[calicowboy54]

I mean is he a 1? Or a 3? We have two 3 techs already. He played the 5 in the 3-4 in Houston

i said when Quinn signed. he’s going to get a bigger body to man the LE due to in his scheme you need a bigger guy to play 2 gap on that side. i think you see the two guys signed today manning that side. with dlaw manning the leo or 9 tech outside rush. and you have gregory rotating with him.

The money:

The money:

So he's not guaranteed a roster spot.

Don't really understand why everybody is complaining here. We just signed the most expensive, short term contract in the history of the sport with Dak. I mean, what was everybody expecting, after having made that move? This is what everybody wanted so can't cry now about the team not making big moves in FA, outside of that signing. If at some point, the team decides to make a big sign, I'd guess that it would be after the Draft. Makes little sense to spend the bulk of your remaining FA money on a position that you might be drafting this year.

That should really be the Cowboys primary strategy this year. The Cowboys may be able to get a desperate player cheap on a 2 year deal after what little FA money is out there dries up.

If I were the Cowboys I would be waiting until after the draft and pick up unexpected cuts on the cheap.

I honestly doubt it Verdict. I mean, players are not going to sign long term deals this season because they know the TV money is coming. They might settle for a one year deal, but I'd be very surprised if any decent players considered anything longer then that. Makes no sense if you are a player. You can always play out the year, then look for a bigger deal next year. If nothing comes, then just extend or resign again with another team for more money.
