This was the first clue.

:grin:

The 2nd was that I have not edited anything. Your username, title, sig, and posts are all the same.

It's a stacked deck.

My all time favorite is Preston Pearson though.

*facepalms* How could I have forgotten Preston Pearson. Was Eddie LeBaron a FA?


What about Lance Alworth? Although I don't remember him doing much w/the Cowboys.

We traded for Alworth.

Eddie LeBaron was a FA. He had gone to Canada to play when we got him.

Chuck Howley was a trade. He is my absolute favorite player that we traded for.

That's right, has to be the best Cowboy FA (and LB) ever. And Howley was considering retiring from the Bears before he was traded, if I recall correctly. The original #54 does not get enough love .... especially from the HOF.

When a player gets waived they are a Free Agent same as if their contract expires without a new deal.

Herb Adderley
Thomas Everett
Preston Pearson
Mike Ditka

A few more names. We've had some great Free Agents end up in Dallas.

The only one of those who wasn't traded to Dallas was Preston Pearson.

The Cowboys traded their first rounder in 1961 to the Commanders for LeBaron. They got Lilly with a first at the end of the round.

He was my favorite free agent signing of all time.

Rocket Ismail was second.

Be careful. I was told I was overboard for him being in my top 5.
