Jerry Jones and Stephen Jones have done their jobs

[Rockport]

Exactly. Now, I'd like for us to extend Cooper. I've seen some wanting Suh. I don't like him and hope there are better options. But, I wouldn't mind a 1 year deal for him with incentives. That's a way to take more pressure off of our defence. Still, excellent off-season this year, and the draft should be fun.

I think they are going to get a DT at #58. Deep draft for that position this year and much cheaper. Even at #90.

 

[CapnB]

And I think Cobb will turn out to be another brilliant move. We shouldn't need to pay through the ear for FA to be successful. I like what we've done. I think it'll work out well for us.

yeah Cobbs money was the Bease cash. except i think he was making 6 mil a year... i think

So, we're not at the draft yet, and let's have a look at what we've gotten done this off-season.

• Needed a FA Safety? Got George Iioka
• Needed a DT? Got Hyder
• Lost a slot receiver in Beasley? Got Cobb who can also be used on the outside
• Need a TE? Persuade Witten to return
• Need Lee to take a paycut? Done!
• Need a DE to help with losing Gregory to suspension? Done! Get Quinn!
• Trouble with DLaw's contract? Not to worry! Problem solved today!

And, again, this is all without the draft. This is what I've been asking for from the FO! This is more like it! Still would like a 1T DT and a full on safety in the draft. However, as far as I'm concerned, Jerry Jones and Stephen Jones have done their job. I think we're right now on the fringe on a Super Bowl contender roster. Now it's time for Jason Garrett to do his job. Coach them up, and let's get this assembled team to the Super Bowl. I've never seen us in the NFCC, but I think the time has now come for us to get number 6! For how this off-season has gone and how I think this season will go, as TO said, get your popcorn ready! Do your job, Garrett! Bring one back to Dallas!

Other than not signing ET, I think the FO has actually done a good job this offseason. ET would have made it perfect.

Like you said, the pressure is now on Garrett...........time to step up and win something besides a Wildcard game. No excuses!!!

Win a Divisional round game or clean out your office, this is your "contract year". Players have to preform in their contract years to get an extension and it should be no different than coaches. You want an extension Garrett, then win a dam Divisional round game.

 

[Toruk_Makto]

Typical Cowboys offseason including all the whaling and gnashing of teeth from the zone.

 

[Manwiththeplan]

Hyder is a DE
Covington is a 1Tech

All in all— some solid work was done. Quinn trade is an A+. Cobb is a savvy signing— B+. Covington and Hyder are nice depth B-.

Iloka is an average S... C-.

Witten and Lee moves are good for leadership and veteran depth.

Resigning Law is an A+.

Yea, I’m not even sure how much if any Hyder and Iloka will contribute. We’re pretty stacked at DE now with Lawrence, Quinn, Crawford, Charlton and Armstrong. Maybe he is the backup 3T, but I’d rather draft someone in rd 2/3/4 to fill that void.

Iloka looks like a Kris Richards box safety, but I would also rather draft someone

[Sarge]

Yup! This roster is just about set.

Belicek would win 2 Super Bowls in one year with this roster.

 

[Gaede]

They have made some aggressive moves.

I have to g-g-g-g-g-give them some credit.

Getting Cobb, Quinn, and the DL depth looks pretty dang good.

Even adding Witten isn't the worst thing

I'm proud of the FO for the work they've done, this was a pretty good FA period, the draft will put us over the top..
SB here we come!

 

[Montanalo]

Admittedly, the pre-draft signings have not only filled a number of holes, it has also set up the draft nicely to select the BPA. That said, I would not be surprised if the FO took a flyer on first round talent that dropped to the second round due to injury or character issues... Come on down, Jeffrey Simmons!

 

[SoupcanSam]

Indeed it is. Jason Garrett HAS to be out of excuses now. This is EXACTLY the team we need now if we can add a safety and a 1T in the draft.

Garrett and Dak are out of excuses now. Seriously if they dont win a SB or get within one game of it than both should be fired.

Imo we should be talented enough to not only make the playoffs, but get past any round in the playoffs.

This the most complete I have seen this team in eons.

 

[big dog cowboy]

Now it's time for Jason Garrett to do his job.

We're many years past time for that to happen.

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

We're many years past time for that to happen.

Agreed there, and this has to be do or die for Garrett here.

 

[Pants]

the moves, IMO, were done to get them over the top - will it? I certainly hope so....but, having the youngest roster (at least one of the 3 youngest) making the playoffs and getting to round 2, and now add in the DLine additions, a safety, and most important, a healthy Beard to anchor the offense once again, along with a full off season and camp with Cooper....(I am hyperventilating)....

health and is our 30-year old OC any good will determine how far this team can go - they can win despite Garrett

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

You forgot about Christian Covington, the 1TDT they signed away from Houston.

I did forget that. Another excellent signing.

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

I think they are going to get a DT at #58. Deep draft for that position this year and much cheaper. Even at #90.

That's what I'm hoping for. Still, if Suh is there after the draft and during OTAs, I'd think we would have to at least consider him if we haven't already.

With this roster? I say get us to the Super Bowl or clean out your office.

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

SB here we come!

Agreed, assuming that Garrett will finally do his job. If not, w e must have a new coach next year with the roster the FO has assembled. I can't wait to see what we do in the draft.

I too think that this is a Super Bowl roster.

 

[unionjack8]

A B+ offseason so far. Iloka Imo was an unnecessary sign f. He doesn't add anything f to this team. In fact I think he gets cut in training camp final cuts.
