There is no way that Leary stays next season. He wants to get paid and he will by somebody. Have to seriously consider using the franchise tag if you want to keep him next year. How much would that cost?

If somebody gives Leary 9mil a year next year....so be it

But I just don't see that happening

The best move the Cowboys could make now is to extend Leary and let Collins have a try at RT
next season. They have to figure out a way to keep these OL studs on the team. Free's time
in Dallas is likely over after this year and they will probably let him walk. Leary is right now
better than Collins at LG and I think Collins has the feet to play RT. Make it happen, Jerry.
What about Green? He has looked capable of being a Tackle in this league.

What makes you think Collins is a better RT than Green.....especially since his time at RT is very limited even in OTA & practice


I don't.

As bad of timing as this statement is I trust Collins to stay healthy and I don't trust Green.

I like Green though.

I don't see how they can pay Leary and Martin. Leary will be $5 million per year, and Martin will be around $10 million.

But I'd love to see it because Leary is just better than Collins in every way.


It's nothing against Collins cause he is a heck of a player too but Leary is a gosh dang tank. He is the best run blocker on the team by a long shot.



To me.. Collins just looks like a OT.

I would extend Leary which should come at a discount because of the degenerative knee condition. I would tell Leary that we are going to give Collins a chance to play RT next year and keep Green as the swing tackle.

Then I would give that a chance to happen, and if it doesn't you still have the best line in football. Collins or Green saves money over Free at right tackle.

Gotta have that swing tackle to can play the left side. I'm not at all confident that Collins can play LT.
Keep Green where he is and groom Collins to RT then sign Leary. All world dominant next year, boys.
