Expiring Contracts

[Kwmike22]

Josh Ellis just stated that 20 players contracts are up at the end of the season. Does anyone know who they are?

 

[JustDezIt]

some off the top of my head are Sensy, Kitna, Elam, Spencer, Coleman?, Brooking

Maybe James, Robinson, Dockery, Holland, Fiametta, Kowalski, Loper, Walker .......

You are prob spot on with those

 

[AbeBeta]

Maybe James, Robinson, Dockery, Holland, Fiametta, Kowalski, Loper, Walker .......

if you count guys like Kowalski then you have pretty much all the UDFA players. Guys up from the PS. Those guys can't go anywhere nor can they negotiate better deals. So their expiring contracts don't matter

I think we picked up Fiammetta's contract which is good through 2012.

Alan Ball CB UFA Dallas TBD --
Martellus Bennett TE UFA Dallas TBD --
Keith Brooking LB UFA Dallas TBD --
Derrick Dockery G UFA Dallas TBD --
Abram Elam S UFA Dallas TBD --
Clifton Geathers DE RFA Dallas TBD --
Montrae Holland G UFA Dallas TBD --
Jesse Holley WR RFA Dallas TBD --
Bradie James LB UFA Dallas TBD --
Mat McBriar P UFA Dallas TBD --
Lonyae Miller RB RFA Dallas TBD --
Kevin Ogletree WR RFA Dallas TBD --
Gerald Sensabaugh S UFA Dallas TBD --
Anthony Spencer

 

[SC Cowboyfan]

James, McBriar, Spencer, Brooking, Hollard, Sensabaugh, Elam, Ball, Ogletree, Miller, Holley, Dockery.

As long as the Docs sign off on McBriar not having a chronic problem, we should pay whatever is needed to keep him. Everyone else make sure we do not over pay. Spencer would be nice; but dont spend too much. Sense and Elam the same. Keep Holland. After that-meh.

Yeah, but then we cut him and brought him back a week or two later. He probably came back on a 1 year minimum deal.

 

[jazzcat22]

I think Coleman signed a 2 year deal, but not 100% sure.

 

[Cowboys22]

I remember being worries baout this during FA last year until I saw the list. Basically, McBriar, Spencer, Bennett, and the 2 safeties are the only notables. Now we have added Robinson and Fiammetta during the season and surely would like them back.

Miller isn't on this team. How is he an expiring contract?

It'll be obvious pretty soon whether McBriar has a chronic problem or not. We'll know well before his contract is up whether he is recovering or requires surgery to attempt to alleviate the problem.

It was a copy and paste job. I edited some, but I missed that one.

I think we should bring back Sensy and Elam off that list for reasonable starter salaries. Both are close to 30 and are never going to be stars so hopefully their price tags aren't too high.

If Spencer is offered more than $6M/yr we should probably let him walk and build through the draft and/or bring in a pass rush specialist.

Depending on the price I'd bring back Holland and Bennett for depth but I could go forward without them.

McBriar depends on health whether he is brought back.

James, Dockery and Brooking should retire.

Ball should be given a vet min contract and a chance to fight for a job.

Holley, Otree, Miller and Geathers are ours if we want them. Otree's situation may depend on what happens with Robinson. I had high hopes for the kid so I hope he can put it all together but it looks like it will not happen here and I don't expect him to be back. Geathers and Holley will be brought back. Miller is done IMO - serves no purpose here anymore. He is just too stiff to play RB.

I would keep Elam, McBriar and Sensy for sure.

Maybe keep Spencer and Holley and possibly Holland.

The others, eh, whatever.

I think it's after next year.

There are 4 rookie pass rushers (OLB types) who have more sacks than Spencer as of week 12 this season.

Von Miller 10.5
Aldon Smith 7.5
Ryan Kerrigan 6.0
Robert Quinn 5.0

The 2011 draft was a better draft for pass rushers than the 2012 draft will be IMO.

we had a shot at a couple of these guys; but that is the way it goes. I would still choose Smith with our first rd pick though.
