I think that's the point every year we are told he is a big part of the team, never gets over 30 carries in a season

Maybe they don't plan on giving Murray a billion touches in 2015.

Hell, maybe Murray won't be back at all.

Either way, looks like Dunbar will actually be a bigger part of the offense.

The Cowboys may be betting that another team signs him, which gives Dallas something in return.

The few opportunities Dunbar got, he looked good, he did have a few big plays. He just wasn't used as often as people wanted. Maybe this year he does.
But I was sure Dunbar would been the odd man out at RB this year. And with Murray returning is not known, they are probably covering to have back up RB's in place that know the offense.

Once Murray is signed, it could change, and he gets replaced in TC.
As where Moore, he can be signed back as a FA for if / when needed.
Jones is decent, he's not great but not horrible. I can see him returning.

Keep in mind these aren't guaranteed deals. Often you do this to keep a guy then make him take a cut later to stay on the team.

Looks like CB is a top 3 round target and/or we like the kid who had the pick 6

He didn't get the opportunities.

His entrance into the game was way too transparent considering he couldn't pass block or run up the middle (though those opps weren't really given to him, rather Randle). There are just way too many scat backs that can pass block as well (Jacquezz Rodgers/Helu who would sign for not much more than vet min. if not just that) and the plethora of UDFAs that come up with similar measurables and the same knocks (PB and lacking on STs) who would be much cheaper options. Same relates to Harris; his packages are a give away to trick plays/creative ways to get him the ball/ or run heavy commitment being the lone WR, etc.(no real pass threat on these plays).

I just read AbeBeta's post above and didn't realize he isn't guaranteed the contract and would just have another opp. to compete in TC. In that case, it makes total sense to tender him unless we were up against the cap by the film of our teeth, etc. and see how much he has worked on his game.
