Franchise Tag Day

I wonder what the Cowboys would have done last year with Peppers ? Would he have been our Haley to put the Cowboys back to a Super Bowl victory?

He wouldn't have forced a certain fumble, that's for sure...

 

[Doomsday101]

Yeah, that worked out pretty well.

And the Packers were happy with that Reggie White thing too, and likely Peppers last year too.

Yes and Peppers cost is an avg of 8.6 mill which is fine

 

[Stash]

Dallas has gotten more than they paid for with guys they have brought in without paying the over pricing we see with top FA.

If your bar is set at 6 sacks....

A bargain in retrospect. Too bad we weren't in on that last year, who knows where we might have gotten to?

Yeah Murray would have got a touchdown, and Peppers would have forced a Greenbay fumble.

With Peppers we might have been singing "We are the Champions of the World".

Could be...

My bar is to improve the defense not some number. Ware gave us double digit sacks and yet the defense still sucked.

And Haley did the same and we won multiple championships, what was your point?

Point is to improve the team not to lead the league in sacks at a cost that would be stupid. Hell if Dallas has to pay a player like a Hardy they should be able to trust that the moron can stay out of trouble if you can't trust then do not get him. As for a guy like Suh who is looking at much larger money his production will never match the price you pay. Dallas has been doing things the right way and it is paying off but now we have fans who want to do it their way? lol whatever

Nobody other than you said anything about 'lead the league in sacks'.

If he was a choir boy, he wouldn't be available. Be smart and put clauses in the contract to protect yourself. Nobody is more aware of his situation than he is.

As for a guy like Suh who is looking at much larger money his production will never match the price you pay.

Irrelevant to me as I have no interest in signing him.

And other fans who simply and unquestionably lap up whatever the team does as if it's a requirement of their fandom. If they did sign Hardy, you'd be the first guy changing his tune and tearing your hands up applauding the move "lol".

Wonder if Eagles make a run at McCourty, now that they have cleared up quite a bit more cap room with McCoy trade.

Word is NE franchised their kicker because they knew McCourty wants to stay and would resign with them.

With it being this close go FA, I don't see why he wouldn't at least test the market and I think its a strong possibility someone overpays for him. His position is probably the weakest in the NFL right now.
