Really?
So we have to clear more cap room just to draft people?

On what happens if the Cowboys can’t get a deal done with Tony Romo before the draft:
Gosselin: “You can’t draft them. There are money slots for all the rounds and all the picks. If you don’t have the money for your first round pick, you can’t make it. You can’t draft. They have to clear the money up before they go on the clock or they can’t make draft picks, and the problem gets worse

This is BS

Gosselin: “You can’t draft them. There are money slots for all the rounds and all the picks. If you don’t have the money for your first round pick, you can’t make it. You can’t draft. They have to clear the money up before they go on the clock or they can’t make draft picks, and the problem gets worse. If they restructure Romo, they can probably get $3 million (under the cap), which would allow you to draft but again, they’re right at that ceiling. You can’t do anything. My guess is they’ll cut Doug Free come June 1. They can’t even cut the guy now because they can’t take the cap hit, same with Marcus Spears. This team is pressed against the cap like no other team.”


Is this guy on drugs???

FALSE.

We can absolutely draft them. We could make 10 first round picks and it would not affect the cap until they are SIGNED (which has traditionally occurred in late July/August).

The only draft-related cap issue is signing the UDFAs, which still should not be a huge issue because only the top 51 salaries affect the cap.

obviously romo and spencer are going to be restructured, vickers may still be cut, free will probably be cut in june.

This guy is embarrassing at times.

This is the same guy that I had an email exchange discussing the 4-3 and he said Bruce Carter could not play the WIL and Spencer could not play DE.

What's going on this offseason? Is there a competition among those who cover the Cowboys or something?

Just really embarrassing lack of knowledge.

I'd love to see his "Oops, nevermind" moment on this one. Except that he'll never acknowledge the mistake and his colleagues sure won't call him on it. They hold the team accountable, but not themselves.

Read the comments... most of them actually believe him.

that is why it is ridiculous for an organization to allow these things to be posted like they are facts. People who don't know better believe what some "expert" analyst has to say.

Maybe in Madden, not in real life.

lol, not even in madden. You can draft whoever you want, no matter your cap situation. The cap only matters when signing them.
