Twitter: Slater: Very strong interest in Cowboys and Von Miller

[Risen Star]

Von would be extra motivated to finish his career strong in Texas.

im betting Jones is feeling a bit burned and would go after the next best DE to make point and save fact. Just a hunch, who that is not sure 3-4 solid DEs left.

I think that's what fans want to happen, but it hasn't been their MO. If they follow their normal pattern, they will sign some kind of low-cost free agent who can start and who keeps them from having to force a draft pick and then try to upgrade in the draft.

He is about to turn 33. 3 years, 30 million?

I'd say that, or 2 for $25 million ish

I saw that interview of Jane Slater. It was clear that she was saying Von Miller was interested in Dallas and not that Dallas was interested in Miller.

Maybe they do decide to bring him in though. It would be nice, and Quinn would be able to use Miller and Parsons in a lot of creative ways.

She had a follow-up tweet that said her inside sources with the team said “we’re working on it,” which she pointed out was a stark difference with anything related to Earl Thomas, Jamal Adams, or Wagner.

EDIT (here’s the actual tweet):

They likely are.

Jerry is likely in panic mode and will pay for a Miller now.

If the cowboys let this opportunity fall through,they are bigger idiots than what I already thought they were.

Cowboys!

OK, Von Miller is interested in joining Cowboys .... now is Stephen Jones interested in doing what it will take to sign Von Miller ?

Will it be the usual Money-Ball offer .. or bust ?

This is actually promising. Dare we dream?

 

[charron]

He's worth a phone call. Gauge what he wants for a 2 year deal.

I’m thinking at least 2 yrs 30 m. And they will have to guarantee almost all of it.

 

[Brax]

Cowboys!

this is the type player Jerry loves 33 years old and washed up.

 

[5Stars]

Not going to happen...remember who runs this mess!

 

[Kalyan]

All the agents leak this to drive up the price for their clients, they use cowboys and sign some where else

somewhat true but if they were willing to spend nearly 14 on RG hey will give that to better player , they already have the role player ie Basham.,Armstrong ,gholston etc they know they need a starer and why they offered that to RG so I believe they can find a quality DE for close to the same money. Its solid gut feeling they will grab one of these guys

Ingram
Miller
Jones
Smith

VM may not be the guy but fit wise i think Chandler Jones being able to kick inside when Micah goes to end might be a better match.. good pass rush., good run support , and can play inside as well.

Washed up ? Lol

 

[Carson]

It's a much better value than Gregory @ 70 million.

Miller is consistent and has two rings.

That’s good news then. I appreciate it.

We can hope.

Hopefully the organization is on the same page with possibly pursuing Miller. They clearly weren't when it came to Gregory, according to reports. Jerry is said to be livid. He did the negotiating and then after the fact Stephen decided to add language, thus blowing up the deal.

Will the Jones boys be on the same page on Von Miller? Who knows with this clown show.
