Maybe this been discussed in many ways, and in many threads on here. If so I apologize. But what is YOUR choice and why?
Mods, maybe a poll can be started on this.
From the viewpoint of a Dallas Cowboys fan, what do you prefer?
I am leaning toward a new CBA.
If no deal is reached, and we do go to an uncapped year, or more, JJ will do what it takes to put together teams like the 90’s SB teams. However he will not overspend IMO. And will not BUY an All-Star team. Will this be good or bad? And how long will it last until a cap is in place again, therefore leading to releasing those players before their time.
Now that means the cap this year will be 94.5 million. We are in very good shape, and can get some decent players. Teams like our enemy the Commanders will be in cap hell and will need to restructure and / or release even more players than if an agreement is made for a new CBA. Thus making us even better.
If a new CBA is in place and the cap is raised to 105 million. Now we should be about 20 to 25 million in cap room. Giving us a chance to sign more and better FA’s. However, other teams will be also, and will this increase the price of a few FA’s because other teams over spending. And the Commanders will still need to cut players though not as many, therefore keeping some of their depth while we add starters and depth for years to come, where theirs may be only there a year, churning for a few years to get their quality depth rebuilt. Thus still keeping us better.
It’s kind of a hard choice. But it’s a nice one to have. I think I would like the extra cap space. After all, do we really care what the Commanders do as long as it’s in the rules of the NFL and as long as we get the players we need. And as stated above, we sign big players for big money in 2007, and in 2008 there’s a new CBA with a cap. What happens to those players, we will have to release them. Remember what the CBA and FA and the CAP did to our SB teams. The player we lost, and throw in the Steelers and 49ers, could have fielded a winning team.
And a new CBA keeps little Danny from competing for those FA’s in 2007 because he will still be against the cap top I would think. We will still be under it.
