No you can't. You don't get key contributors, whatever that means, for $7m, and paying $7m to depth/role players is what gets teams into cap trouble.I like Clowney a LOT, but at this point we can get three key contributors for the kind of money he wants....and the second Clowney gets hobbled a bit, or cant play at all due to whatever, that 3 vs 1 is really gonna sting.
Said it earlier....Clowney is for a team that isnt paying Lawrence already.

People don’t understand how terrible Quinn is vs. the run and screens & don’t understand this guy single handily devastated this defense bUt hE hAd 11 sAcKs.This
LOL at "Quinns better because he had a few more sacks against some back-up LT's".
Clowney is 5x better against the run and unlike Quinn he actually knows what a screen pass is.........
1)Lawrence, plus the often injured, overpriced Clowney, along with JAGS@ DT, or...
2)Lawrence, Gregory and a couple of stud DTs.
I’ll take option #2.
It’s super rare that a team would trade a player that they just tagged unless they just don’t feel like they can get a deal done and I wouldn’t be interested in giving up a kings ransome for those guys when there’s a ton of DT talent freely availableI know, you can trade for them.
I would to. But a guy like Clowney means you don't have to have the elite DT
Yeah that makes sense.
But we know we arent signing anybody lol
Yup.... Cowboys = clicksHe just said it would be a good fit. Thats all. Don't hold your breath.
No it's not, it literally just happened with Clowney, and I think Dee Ford. Slap the tag, trade the rights.It’s super rare that a team would trade a player that they just tagged unless they just don’t feel like they can get a deal done and I wouldn’t be interested in giving up a kings ransome for those guys when there’s a ton of DT talent freely available
Jones isn’t going anywhere without a mega-contract and multiple 1st round picks - I’m good on that.No it's not, it literally just happened with Clowney, and I think Dee Ford. Slap the tag, trade the rights.
The DT talent available isn't anywhere in the same class as Jones. He's a game changer. The FAs are just 1-tech plugs.
I mean, he's the best defensive player in football. $23m and two firsts is kind of a no brainer if you're not a rebuilder.Jones isn’t going anywhere without a mega-contract and multiple 1st round picks - I’m good on that.
