​

IRVING, Texas -- Dallas Cowboys linebacker Justin Durant underwent season-ending surgery Thursday to repair a significant tear in his right biceps. Durant, the Cowboys' leading tackler, thought about avoiding surgery with the goal of returning in December, but the team's medical staff said it wouldn't heal in enough time. "I wasn’t going to be effective," Durant said. "And the way that I play, it was going to be impossible for me to play with the type of tear that I have.

Yes. I would like to see him resigned too

I trust signing him to a contract more than Ro.

 

[JoeKing]

I believe we'll see him again in training camp.

He'll be back.

True. But Ro has more upside and much younger too.

I cant see us not resigning him unless someone takes a big gamble and signs him for a decent sized contract

Durants future with the Cowboys is really simple - his $$$$$ demands. If he prices himself out of what we can sign him for he is gone. I hope he returns. But I always look at players like him with the draft in mind. Signing Durant saves a draft pick needed to replace him.

I might disagree there. I think it saves you from maybe a 1st or 2nd round pick. But I think this team would still draft a linebacker and I think they should. You can never have enough and it seems like the only ones who can stay healthy are Wilber and Hitchens.

But I do agree about the money part. He's a nice cheap band aid to a wound that someday will need to be repaired. But as of right now i'm convinced he can give us 1 or 2 more solid years.

I hope Durant says in his best Arnold voice "I'll be back"

Sign him up, don't have faith in Ro.
