He's 31, available, will most likely sign for league minimum. we have an injury prone RB1 and a rookie RB2. Why not take a look at him?

by the way, i have NOTHING against Demarco. he's one of my favorite cowboys, and i'm cool w/ the OK state kid, but why not add some depth to the backfield with someone who has experience, and might have a little something left?

Charles Woodson or Brandon Moore would actually help this team in a big way, Michael Turner not so much. Turner isn't getting anywhere behind this o-line with his skillset..

He was nothing special last season. I'd rather have an undrafted young guy with fresh legs.

Fly Brandon Moore all the way to the bank to sign his Veteran Tender.....it is sad that our RBs no matter who they are will not have the best options running inside without viable Guards.

The 3rd guy, I'd rather see what Dunbar, Tanner or Lawrence have. Not like the 3rd guy is gonna see the field unless of injury. Might as well have a developmental guy.

Turner is shot - there is nothing left there.

As third rb, may be the funniest thing in cowboy history to see him covering kickoffs and punts. Tempted by the comedic value but no thanks.

Just dont see it happening, much cheaper younger drafting RBs, and thats why guys like Turner and Ahmad Bradshaw are still available FAs.

Barring injury, we are set at RB.

There will be no veteran signings.

I rather not sign Moore or turner. I rather use what we have. Woodson I've loved since his Michigan days so I'd be happy just to see him in a cowboys jersey.

barring injury i don't think we will sign any vets. we need to save the money we have for lee,dez and carter. you don't sign a 30 year old vet to be the 3rd rb but i don't expect moore or any other mentioned either. we don't have the money to keep signing these guys. we are already over the cap next year so we need to carry forward as much as possible or use this extra money to sign lee now

Turner is spent. There's no tread life left on the tires and the engine is shot.

I wouldn't be shocked to see him retire.
