Now that the official free agency period has started and the Cowboys have allowed WR Amari Cooper, CB Byron Jones, Slot WR Randall Cobb, DT Maliek Collins and Slot CB Anthony Brown to hit free agency, which do you see leaving or coming back? How does this change the Cowboys draft priorities?

What say you?

I see Brown and Collins possibly returning for 1-2 year deals depending on what offers they get from other teams. Doubt the F.O. would like to go into next year with just Lewis and Awuzie as returning vets at the cornerback spot, especially since both will be UFAs the following year.

I think the cowboys are just seeing what the market will be for several of these players before just throwing money out there.

Back. Cooper, Cobb, Brown ( cheap insurance)

Cooper/Cobb proven commodities versus gamble on transfer of college skills to Pro game

Wideout is one area where depth in the draft is deep and someone like a Gallup could be had for cheap.

not freaking out until all of those folks officially sign with someone else. We can match anything those guys get offered if we choose to.

Same as before.

These positions needed to be addressed in FA and the draft. The only difference is the FA we get will be new to the team.

I would let those guys go. We can get two quality receivers in this draft. We can let Amari go bring in two defensive tackles, sign Chris Harris, Randall, etc improve the secondary and we will be fine. We will be fine either way.
