I’m sure Ronald Jones is on speed dial, or first RB who agrees to our cheeseburger and fries signing bonus

I’m glad to read that.

Very few of the more successful teams are paying big money for a running back. San Francisco is the notable exception. And they can do it because they have a quarterback on a Mr Irrelevant rookie contract.

But take a look at how the other teams who paid big for running backs did collectively.

It wasn’t good.

And that’s why there are so many now available.
There's also a difference between CMC and most guys. He's not just a regular good rb, he's special.

Eagles are reportedly interested in Saquan at 12m+ per on a multi year. Jacob’s will likely be close to that.

The big increase in the cap has given some players options that didn’t exist a year ago, cowboy fans need to realize that we can’t just expect players to come here for less than market and, obviously, fans are usually out of touch with what the market actually is.

Not just the RB market. They won't be at the top of any position market.

The CAP is real. The impact of the CAP is real. We are seeing it now, and we will see if for the rest of the free agency period. 9-8 in 2024 or bust!

Fans will hate it but the Cowboys are drafting a LT, running back. and center with the first 3 picks. They will dumpster dive the defense.

She may be right .......but this reporter is known for fabricating stories to get clicks.

Do the Cowboys think they can win a Super Bowl by giving 3 players bags and penny pinch the rest?

Can't wait until they come out and tell us the draft is where we will really fill our holes.

Wash. Rinse. Repeat.
