a little of the pessimist side of me, along with the optimism.

first i thing parcells will see his final days in dallas unless they get to the big game.

i can see a few candidates for HC

Cam Cameron OC chagers
Ken Wisenhunt OC Steelers
Bob Stoops HC Oklahoma
Jim Johnson DC Eagles
Bob Bratkoski OC Bengals

now for DC i can say 1 name that is just what this defense needs

Mike Singletary

next would be releases and free agents

i can see these players released

Terrell Owens, i can also see him back to. Dallas just wont find a viable replacement for him unless they're willing to draft up for Calvin Johnson which they wont.

Flozell Adams, i can see him released or traded if he doesnt restructure. he's not worth the 9mil+ that he's going to make next yr. his last yr of his contract.

Marco Rivera is gone

Anthony Henry, could be out the door.

Crayton might be gone to somebody offering him more money. dallas wont offer him a 1st rd tender. and i think a team would give dallas a 3rd or 4th in return for a guy with great hands.

keith Davis is gone

Drew Bledsoe see ya

Julius could be traded, remember they did try before the draft

Chris Canty might be out if dallas switches defenses. he's probably the only player that isnt a fit for the 4-3, if they make a switch

Resigning

Andre Gurode i dont think u can cut a guy who is a starter and can play all 3 middle posistions. draft aguy like kyle young to play center, and u have gurode playing right guard.

Jaques Reeves
Jay Ratliff
Sam Hurd
Martin GRamatica

Free Agency

i really think dallas should get its OL in order this yr thru freeagency. while the draft is good, there really isnt a player better then what dallas has except for maybe kyle young over gurode at center.

Eric SteinbachRFA
Mike GandyUFA
Sean LocklearRFA

out of them i think mike gandy would be the smaartest pick if they let adams walk. because he wouldnt be expensive and he could start, even if they draft a rookie. even if they keep adams. this team needs depth.

WR
Dallas is old at WR, everybody knows that. and they're slow other then glenn. but glenn's legs are running out as has been the case this yr, with his injuries. they say it takes longer to heal the older u get.

Patrick Crayton RFA
Kevin Curtis UFA
DJ Hackett UFA
Scotty Vines UFA
Ernest Wilford UFA
Michael Robinson FA

Not a very enticing group of WR's, but there is a name tht will be available via trade. Randy Moss, who knows. Do u release a troublesome WR for a lazy one? Also possibly being released are guys like Eric Moulds, Joey Porter, Marty Booker, Keyshawn Johnson, Amani Toomer, Mike Williams, Cory Bradford, Joe Horn

Still not a very good crop, so maybe dallas has no choice but to keep Owens

DE

While Ellis is one of my favorite players, he's not young and that injury wasnt small. this is actually a good yr to go shopping for somebody established.

TOP PRIZE
Dwight Freeney, Probably wont sign with indy, lack of commitment on defense, and Peyton taking so much of the Cap. nd they're need to buld a defense probably means he's gone.

Jared AllenRFA
Simeon Rice RELEASE
Bryan ThomasUFA
Michael Strahan probable release

DT
if dallas switches to a 4-3 then of course they'd need a Dt maybe 2 depending on what they woud do with spears, even if they dont, they need some depth for NT in a 3-4

Terdell SandsUFA
Hollis ThomasUFA
Robair SmithUFA

not really a great crop

LB

i really dont see the need to add another rookie LB, but i dont see the need to add another guy to start either but some cheap depth wouldnt hurt

Randal Godfrey, would love to have him come back home.
Rob MorrisUFA
Donnie Edwards RELEASE

CB

this is the posistion i think dallas needs bad next yr. with glenn probably signing someplace else to start, because he could start for most nfl teams. and henry playing like henry. he looks like his body is just breaking down.

Nate ClementsUFA bills would be stupid to let him go

Asante SamuelUFA, pts dont pay anymore he's gone
Randall GayUFA
one of the Bears CB's anyone of them will do.

FS

dallas doesnt need another rookie, they need a vet, capable vet

Ken HamlinUFA mark it down hes in dallas
Gabril wilsonUFA

Then comes the draft

i think dallas needs alot, most importantly OL,CB,WR

Disagree about the Hotel- I see us restructuring. He has gotten a lot better during the season. Henry was well- untill his knee started acting up he was doing good last half of the season. Now if the knee looks like a chronic thing then yes he is gone. And has been pointed out MANY TIMES the offer came in for JJ- we did not solicit. I think there will be no changes at either RB or WR. We will not switch Ds- Spears is more likely to be gone then Canty.
Gurode will stay at center. WOULD LOVE TO GET STEINBACH.
Glenn is signed through next year.

i can see a restructure too. but u have to think dallas probably will lose him after next yr. somebody is going to pay him something dallas wont. something to think about. didnt glenn only sign a 2 yr deal? last yr and this yr.

Interesting stuff.

Seriously doubt on Moss, his rep seems worse than Owens. Might as well have Antonio Bryant LOL (not that it's an option).

Otherwise I can see a sizeable part of that happening.

If Parcells is gone, I think JJ needs to shut his trap about what defense the Boys run, and concentrate on getting a staff in place that can make use of the useable talent on the squad, and address what's leaking.

Either that, or name himself HC, so the Al Davis circle will complete itself.

Just kidding on that last part...

I think when this offseason is over you are going to think we got a bargain with Flozell with his contract at its current level. There will be a rediculous amount of money thrown around with the number of teams that are well below the cap.

I agree focus less on if the coach runs a 3-4 or a 4-3 and more if they are a good candidate or not. If Parcells leaves I want Jeff Tedford, Rex or Rob Ryan.

yeah i dont see that moss thing happening either. word around here in the bay area is the raiders are going to trade randy back to the vikings for only a 3rd. thats crazy. but thats the word out here

i really dont think dallas has a choice to not keep owens. atleast for another yr.

I don't think Crayton is going anywhere, at least I hope not, especially if TO is out the door.

We should start a thread to see if everyone thinks TO should stay or go.

:D

do u think dallas would give him a 1st rd tender offer? probably not. so until he's signed, u never know. teams like atlanta raiders, NEW ENGLAND, miami will all be looking for a wr with hands.

WE (emphasis added) need a "wr with hands." In fact, WR is an area of need for this team.

I'm a big fan of Crayton and not a big fan of 'our' ability in the drafting department.

We know what we have (for the most part, in Crayton), and I would like to keep him.

No, Crayton would not generate a 1st round tender...IMO/FWIW.

a first rd tender for crayton would be worth how much? since he way a 7th rd pick. doesnt it go by where he was drafted?

With the emergence of Romo I think he will return. Hopefully something will be done either way so we don't go for weeks and weeks of speculation like last year.

Oh God . . . . that would suck. Having to sit around until BP made up his mind.

But I do think that if we have a bit of success in the playoffs, he will probably be back.

That said, PLEASE ugrade the coaching staff (that means you, Zimmer), Bill!

My gawd, this is a dumb thread. Just get rid of everybody while you're at it. We'll start over and then, by Golly, do it right this time! We'll draft all the right people, make all the best trades! It'll be the best show ever, Gang!!
