Does Monday's news temper your enthusiasm for today?

[Joe Realist]

Some people view the first day of free agency like Christmas. I kind of feel a little wind out of the sails. Maybe that will change come 4pm.

 

[Hostile]

Yes it does a little.

 

[TellerMorrow34]

It absolutely ruined any anticipation I had for today. I'm really not expecting anything today for the Cowboys now, to be totally honest.

 

[noletime95]

Yes it does.

 

[Pabst]

It mostly tempers my enthusiasm for the NFL. It's difficult to take anything the league does seriously anymore. What they're doing is simply wrong, and they've lost credibility in my eyes.

 

[CIWhitefish]

Yes for sure. I was excited at what we might do. Now I'm just worried and hopeful we can still do some positive things.

 

[Doomsday101]

a bit but I still think the Cowboys will still be active in the FA market.

 

[DEZBRYANT x88x]

.....yup

 

[DBOY3141]

Wasn't expecting much to begin with. I've lost all faith in JJ. Can't wait for the day he is gone. He has destroyed the Cowboys that I have loved for over 35 years.

 

[realtick]

Not really.

From all the reports, the Cowboys can still make moves.

 

[CoCo]

I like the "what if" element whenever its in play.

But I'm a cautious free agency shopper when it comes to the big money deals because they are such a two-edged sword.

There are some on this site however who have champagne on ice & a supply of razor blades right next to it.

Its nowhere near that meaningful in reality.

 

[CaptainMorgan]

.....yup

Of course....

Its changed my way of thinking though. Id rescind the franchise offer to Spencer and take my chances with someone a lot cheaper at this point.

 

[Mrdude108]

Yes but still hopeful...definitely disappointing though.

I think you'll see us resign Robinson and Fiametta. I've also heard we're gonna try and grab Chris Myers pretty quickly.

Nothing earth-shattering but still something hopefully.

 

[hornitosmonster]

Some, but it means it will force a Newman cut which is great news

 

[Go Big D!]

I feel the same way as many others in this post. While I know that we can realistically go after the guy/s we want if we restructure existing contracts, I just feel that we may have lost an aggressive edge.

 

[Nation]

There was nobody I was truly in love with this free agency that Monday's news impacts. I don't think Mario Williams is the best pass rusher in football and I don't want us paying him as such. Brandon Carr and Cortland Finnegan are both above-average starting cornerbacks and if we can't pay them like All-Pro's I can live with that. Nicks is a premium player at a non-premium position and I think we're better off with 3 "B to C+" guys there as opposed to an A and two D's (or last years 3 D's). Peyton and VJax are not needed, and everyone else we can still afford.

 

[DFWJC]

Somewhat, yes.

 

[Mash]

I was excited....the but the crap the NFL threw at us has put a damper on this FA period

Its even put a damper on what I think about the NFL in general.

IMHO The league has become a joke..... Its not the same as it was......were a glorified CFL now

We have seen teams cheat....we have seen teams put bounties on players...etc....swept under the rug.....and now we have teams who followed the rules and still get punished...

A NFC East owner pushing to punish two other NFC East owners....go figure...

 

[PullMyFinger]

Curved it.......straight down.
