The longer Hardy is out there, the more likely it is, IMO.

I think he and Spiller are real possibilities and not just fan hopes. Well, fan hope for Hardy and @Alexander hope for Spiller.

I would be very surprised if one of those two isn't in town tonight or tomorrow and gets a deal. I think Morgan is most likely though.

Hardy is clearly the prize, as far as the Cowboys are concerned, among this class of free agents. I'd like to see the team get him signed. If it's at a discount because the rest of the league is busy moralizing about events that may or may not have transpired, so much the better. But discount or no discount, get him inked.

This!

Absolutely this!

I don't even care about a possible 2-game suspension, I'll gladly take him for the other 14, plus the rest on whatever deal we sign.

The possible suspension allows you to negotiate a more affordable deal. Move in before someone else does and you're left with nothing to improve the pass rush. Give him the money you had ticketed for Murray.

With Murray gone, the ball is now in the court for the defensive side of the ball.

Why do you think Hardy is coming here? What makes you think that? He isn't and when he goes somewhere else, please don't say he sucks.

If you want a response from me, answer my previous question.

What's your plan to fix this?

Is it to overpay for every guy who left here? Because you complained about that!

Is it to sign free agents? Because according to you, nobody is coming here.

What exactly would you do differently, because up to now, all you do is complain.

And the constant whining with no alternatives is beyond old.

My plan would have been to give Murray a one time offer - if he didn't want it then move on and help the D.

Maybe sign Jabal Sheard to play DE and keep Carter and McClain. (Probably around 10 mill total)

Sheard-McClain-Crawford-Lawrence
Carter-McClain-Lee

Then help RB in the draft + a low end FA.

I look at it this way, Romo has maybe 2 good years left and our division sucks. It's there for us.
