Thats awesome!! 2 mill per sack..... what a friggin racket...

For what it’s worth.


When Mack was traded and signed his new deal he had 40.5 career sacks. 87 guaranteed. 2.17 mil per sack.

I swear some people make Tank out to be a bottom feeder DE.

@JoeKing looks like he will get it done next week. I don’t know enough about the recovery to even talk on it. Hopefully he will be ready by camp.

Thanks for the heads up. Recovery is said to be 3 to 4 months so he should be ready to go by the time games matter.

He’s been arguably the best end in football the past two years. Not saying he’s the best defender in the league, but he would’ve been the top free agent if we didn’t tag him for a reason.

 

[85Cowboy85]

More than a lot of people would have wanted to pay but it would have been very difficult to replace him. Pass rushers are hard to find and without a pass rush there's a limit to how good the defense is going to be.

I just hope his body holds up long enough that we don't end up eating most of that contact.

For the few fans here saying Lawrence is a mediocre DE, why did every single media outlet list Tank as the #1 free agent available this entire offseason?

It's one thing to think Cowboy fans overrate a player, but why would every football talking head claim he's the top possible free agent if he was "mediocre"?

Personally, I'm glad that he is 1)no longer playing under the tag and 2) playing this year at a smaller cap number. With Quinn, when is the last time we had two bookend DE's this good?

 

[SoupcanSam]

Amateurs: I signed him for waaay less on Madden lol.

Yeah stick with madden

 

[aria]

NO ONE thought that..it was the agent. That said, I said earlier today they need to sign this weekend and get the surgery next week. That's great....GLAD it got done NOW its on him to be a beast and a leader. Has to earn it.

That’s ridiculous, that’s like blaming JG and ignoring who’s really paying him to be there. The agent is the broker but he’s not holding out without Tanks approval. Tank could have easily said “I’ll settle for 20 per year” but he didn’t.

And yes, you know as well as I do several people said something to that effect about Tank AND his agent.

“No one said that”....Bwahahaha

 

[birdwells1]

Who ever said 140 mil? Most people were complaining about him wanting more than 20 and how he wasn’t worth it. Also bashed his character for not being a team player (like any of them really are).

Hell, the team ain't a team player.

 

[charron]

I guess we will find out if he was worth it or if we wasted 65+ million. More worried about him being healthy a full season not just playing through injuries but actually being healthy and productive 16+ games into the playoffs.

 

[KingintheNorth]

For a medicore LDE who is injured 60% of the time ?

in 5 years, he has played 69 out of a possible 85 games, aka 81% of the games. Where are you getting 60% of the time?

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

Okay we have bookends with rotation. Without having to steal practice squad players LOL add a good solid defensive tackle I'm happy

I really hope we can get a solid 1 tech or 3T in FA, and the latter in the draft. Along with a safety of course. That would finish the offseason Nicely.

Chris that dude sounds like a big whiner....

 

[dallasdave]

Good, excited to see him and Quinn

Sure hope He and Quinn will make Dallas WIN

 

[Verdict]

Yeah I want his torn labia 100%

Well played.

Imagine if we somehow pick up Gerald McCoy via a trade or if Tampa Bay cuts him?

The draft would be pure gravy. I'd imagine we'd be a very fashionable Super Bowl pick at that point.

 

[Nightman]

So that would be freed up about $9.4M in immediate cap room.

($20,571,600-$11,100,000)

Thanks for the update.... have to change a few numbers from earlier but the song remains the same

 

[dallasdave]

And this surprises you?
No... it doesn't.

Nothing surprises Corso Corso is always ready and well informed.

He’s not mediocre, they didn’t like the pick, they don’t like him personally, or his attitude, so nothing will ever change their minds. I mean they’d give him up for a 5th round pick if they could, and hope that he’d be a big failure to whatever team he was trade to just so they can say I knew it!

Oh, that would make this the best Cowboys off-season I've ever seen. I'd be super stoked for the season. We could be Super Bowl favourites. Garrett would have a Super Bowl roster. The FO has done their job. Now, do your job, Jason Garrett.
