This Thomas talk was, is, and will always be nonsensical.
Think about it: Dallas will have at least two that will command $20 mil/season after next year (Martin, Lawrence) -- essentially 1/3 to 1/4 of the cap. Thomas is 29. Even if the trade looks good on paper, good for 2018, how are we going to afford him in '19 and beyond?? We are NOT 1 S away from a championship in 2018. Gotta have more foresight for 2019 and beyond. I mean, I hate to put the 2018 season down before we even get there, but at this point, this team is more about rebuilding than being like the Saints or Rams (who are going all-in for 2018).

Dallas wanted him and will give him a deal if they can get him.
Offer them next years 3
I could see them trying to trade a fourth tomorrow for him.
Byron Jones?Let's hope it's a cap friendly deal for 2019 and beyond for what will be a 30+ year old safety (albeit a good one). Again, a lot of our own guys we'd want to keep.
And I guess I'm just someone who's not used to spending a mint for a S. Then again, Dallas hasn't made it a priority since Roy (S) Williams, so there's that.
I would have a guy like fisher around to do that if I was Jerry. Make him right on occasion with some splash but smoke screen more so. The media is influenced by money and who has the most controls the biggest influence.I think the Cowboys use Fisher to confuse everyone. Like I've said a dozen times, for a supposed "insider", he knows nothing. Of course he always has an excuse being wrong. Anyone remember the last time he was right about ANYTHING football related?
On to his next assignment via email.Fisher, where are you?
