we might have yet another
That move actually makes a lot more sense.

Nobodys saying full time. That was never inplied.Good luck with that. Their pass rush wasn't good before, try going with a 3DT scheme and it will only be worse.
Still on the roster, still being paid big bucks. If he's not playing and "injured" that makes things worse, not better.
Sure, and not get sacks or pressure there, again, not a good plan. He's a great defensive tackle, not an end.
Not like thats where most of his snaps would be. Malik can even bump to end. 1 T 3 T 5T . SIMPLE.I’m sorry but that’s moronic. Like Stash said.....that’s like the Cowboys paying big money for a left tackle. It makes no sense. I can guaranteee they will rarely if ever see the field at the same time. Why would you put Cox on the edge when he’s dominant inside taking two blockers?
FWIW, Jackson is only a $4.4MM cap hit for them this year before it goes to $13MM next year. Next year appears to be the doozy when you look at it............. Jackson will be a $13MM, Cox's cap hit will be $22MM next year and Hargrave will be $16MM.
And based on spotrac there isn't alot of relief in terms of cutting or trading any of those guys.
Where does Barnett fit in this or have they just wrote him off as a bust? What Bennett do they have at DE?That DL would be freaking disgusting. Ngakoue, Graham and Bennett at DE and Jackson, Cox and Hargrave at DT?
Yeah, I'd be jealous.

Agree to disagreeThen it's a waste of resources, exactly as I said.
Yeah I use to wonder how they are paying for these guys but it becomes evident when you see how many bad contracts they have for guys. Feels like the Cowboys use to do this at one point. I’m not a fan of that at all.Exactly my point!
Howie is 'making magic' right now, because he's spending recklessly and pushing it off until 'next year' repeatedly. But when you look at their current roster, dead money, and resources, the big picture becomes more clear.
He's mortgaging the future for the present, borrowing from Peter to pay Paul.
Take a look at their one specific cancer - Alshon Jeffrey. Everybody knows he hates it there and his teammates hate him. He's the guy throwing his QB under the bus and undermining him to the media. And they're totally stuck with him and his contract. Forced to look elsewhere to try to bail them out of it. That's precisely why they were trying to get in on Hopkins. Stuck with Jackson as well and hoping he somehow stays healthy this year. Good luck with that too! But they can't cut or trade either guy because of past sins and the structures of the deals.
I would be shocked if they didn't jump in front.Wouldn’t surprise me if they jump us and draft CJ Henderson as well.
Agree to disagree
It’s not simple. If you want a edge then go get one. It’s whatever. As a Cowboy fan I can take pleasure on them screwing up.Not like thats where most of his snaps would be. Malik can even bump to end. 1 T 3 T 5T . SIMPLE.
Let em. He’s not the only prospect out there.Wouldn’t surprise me if they jump us and draft CJ Henderson as well.

I have to say though I know the defense underperformed but I’m really shocked they aren’t trying to give Wentz some better receivers.

My computer autocorrected to Bennett for some reason.
Barnett, you are right. And from what I have read they still like Bennett but they have no problems carpet bombing DL. It's a position they spend highly on. I wish we had more urgency and fervor to build a strong DL like they do.
You seem to say this every year and for the last 3 years, they have done better than we have. I mean they were ravaged by injuries last year and still won the division. So at some point, it seems funny that we, of all teams, would be laughing at what they are doing.
I don’t want a GM who does what the fans want. That’s moronic. If I wanted that I’d ask them to hire a fan. These moves are moronic and if those fans truly enjoy them it’s fitting because they are morons. He’s living off of 2017 and hasn’t done anything worth a damn since. I just want Jerry to make smart moves. I don’t need splash moves just smart moves.
Garrett's gone. And his hack coaches with him. That has been and will make all the difference.
We think.
But it still doesn't change the fact that Cowboys fans laughing at what they are doing look weird. For all the screw ups they apparently make, they've been the better franchise.
