Despite the talented roster, the team still has around $24 million in cap space, according to spotrac.com. This currently ranks as the third most in the NFL, behind only the Chicago Bears ($32M) and the Carolina Panthers ($28M).
9NEWS’ Mike Klis said on June 7 that there are “seven teams that have serious interest” in Risner’s services. Spotrac.com currently has Risner’s market value at $9.2 million per season.
While $9.2 million certainly isn’t cheap, the Cowboys only have one legitimate question mark heading into the upcoming season (besides kicker). The team still does not have a clear answer on who will play their left guard position. With all-time great OL Tyron Smith returning on a re-worked deal, and OL Terence Steele working his way back from his torn ACL and MCL suffered last season, there are many question marks regarding what the official five up front is going to look like for Week 1. LT Tyler Smith played so great for the Cowboys in his rookie year with the team, however, he may be forced to move into the left guard spot because the team has a hole there.
Signing Risner to a contract would give the Cowboys a lot more protection and stability at their left guard spot. Risner still has plenty of football left to be played in his career, so he can not only fill the hole for the Cowboys immediately, but he could give the team a consistent left guard for a few more seasons. With the Cowboys looking to win this year, the team should seriously look into Risner, and attempt to bring him to Dallas, adding to an already exciting roster.
