Scared me until I looked at the list. I see about 7 I would like them to keep. I will comeback and name them later.

 

[Direwolf63]

Lets play out the season first, then we can figure it out. OK?

 

[darthseinfeld]

The UDFA's I believe will be RFA's. Irving, and Collins will carry max tenders.

I think we let Lawrence walk. Hopefully he has a good year and can net a 3rd round comp.

 

[okstateCowboy]

Gotta let the season play out first. But there's only about 2-3 on that list I would really want back

 

[JoeKing]

Can we play a freaking season before we concern ourselves with that BS. Some folks can never have enough fires burning around the Cowboys.

You are correct about Irving.

As for Lawrence, unless he goes crazy this year, bye.

There really is not anyone on these lists to be concerned about.

 

[Dwight]

Lawerence can go.

The only two that the organization must keep are Collins & Irving.

An organization has to think beyond.

In all honesty, we don't seem to be caught with our pants down.

Isnt Collins an RFA as well?

Id only keep Lawrence if he blows up and our other DE's underperform. He has been too unreliable

Collins was undrafted. So I'm not sure if the rules are the same for him as drafted players.

The FO, sure... get a handle on it but why do we as fans give a damn at this point? You wanna be Cowboys mico-managers drive me nuts.

I believe UDFA's become RFA's after 3 years.

Just looked it up, Sportstrac has him as a RFA

 

[Howboutdemcowboys31]

La'el and Irving are the only two as of today I would sweat losing. Season can change things

RFA

 

[Cowboys_22]

Being a contract year, these 20 will give it their all for another contract.

Go Cowboys!

Watch Lawrence have a 10 sack season, then what?

Franchise tag.

It's not completely impossible...he did have 8 sacks sandwiched between two forgettable seasons.

 

[The Natural]

Lawrence can go
