   So much for Chip Kelly's argument that LeSean gone was all about money.

   Murray was offered a deal very heavy on incentives that'd max at $8M APY by another team. Will be interesting to see incentives in Philly.

Eagles just TO'd the Cowboys.. Cowboys took TO from the Eagles and they took Murray from the Cowboys. Oh well..

 

[bayeslife]

Dude is their best OL. Why is he cleaning house of all the premier talent on the roster??????

I wouldn't say he's as good as Peters or Kelce, but Mathis is in fact a top 5 guard in the NFL.

 

[Avery]

I wonder if trading Mathis is the only way they believe they could afford Murray.

In any event, Chip Kelly is stupid and I'm supportive of that.

Hard to find fault with either @DeMarcoMurray or the Cowboys in this deal. But Jerry better hope his o-line is as good as he thinks it is.

Uh yeah Doocy it is.

See ya Murray. Thanks for last season. Not so best wishes.

 

[gimmesix]

Exactly. Just because the players heading out moved quickly and happened prior to their replacements coming in, its no reason to panic.

We always knew DeMarco would be gone if another offer was crazy, and this one was. Its not hard to find a replacement either in the draft, or FA, or both.

It was obvious one of Free or Parnell would leave and one of them left.

Carter was going to get more than Dallas wanted to pay, and he did.

Durant would have been nice as a backup, but it was very unlikely he would have started next year.

Harris is a good player but we didn't have enough touches to use him at WR. His ST ability can be replaced with a late round draft pick.

None of these moves are unexpected - or bad moves in the grand scheme of things.

Durant really is the only surprise to me. I thought he would re-sign.

Bargain? Are you serious?

I'm assuming sarcasm, the ...

Eagles fans be like:

 

[Risen Star]

Murray: This was never about the money.

....while signing with the team who offered the most money.

Murray: It's about winning a Super Bowl.

....while signing with a team that has never won a Super Bowl.

 

[lostar2009]

Ouch.

No Vaseline.

 

[Avery]

It is Doocy. Just report on the news and stay out of sports.

Three All-Pros under 25 years old? I'm comfortable.

 

[Christiann]

My eagle friend is trying to justify the price and I can't help but laugh. Wow that is an awful contract, but I can't even hate DeMarco. Get cha money!!

 

[Risen Star]

I already hate this guy.

 

[BoysFan4ever]

I hope he is a total bust there.

 

[Plankton]

I wouldn't mind Matthews as a cheaper replacement. Fingers crossed he don't get hurt.

With his injury history, he'll get injured signing the contract.

 

[sureletsrace]

So glad the Cowboys didn't pay him that.


Wow.

Boring day on Twitter.

LOL...shortly after there is a rumor that they are trying to trade him and the whole Murray stuff going on.
Well Played Evan.

 

[Cowboysfan1975]

People, please quit saying that money is well deserved. He had one very good season. That one season had much more to do with a beastly oline then it did with Murray. He will never come close to that kind of production again.

Murray: This was never about the money.

....while signing with the team who offered the most money.

Murray: It's about winning a Super Bowl.

....while signing with a team that has never won a Super Bowl.

First of all, whenever a player says that it's not about the money, you know they're lying. They all say that. Second of all, who on the Cowboys playing roster have won a Super Bowl?
