- Sign Cooper to a fair, long term deal
- Tender Irving
- Resign Hitchens if he comes fairly cheap
In FA:
- Sign Bennie Logan or Poe, whomever is the fairer deal
- Sign Kenny Vaccaro or Ed Reid, whomever is the fairer deal
- Sign Tyler Eifert if he passes physical, to a short term deal.
Draft (based on Draftwire rankings) assuming Cowboys finish 9-7 and are picking 18th. First four rounds only (2 4th round Comp picks) :
1 - Rashaan Evans, LB, Alabama
2 - Deon Cain, WR, Clemson
3 - Deshon Elliott, S, Texas
4 - Adonis Alexander, CB/S, VTech
4(c) - Justin Jones, DT, NCSU
4(c) - Bo Scarborough, TB, Bama
They have to fix the interior DL and can't just assume the draft will yield that guy and give them immediate results. I was also not opposed to another edge player, but none seemed to grab me at the spot we were picking. Evans is a killer in the middle. Hitchens backs him up. Lee is the WILL, with Smith backing him up. Your LB depth is suddenly much better.
Eifert is a risk reward guy depending on the price. Ravaged by injuries but his upside if healthy is a legit top level TE. Witten is basically at the end, you don't know what Gathers is. So I'd be out looking for a TE in free agency. Eifert is the smart bargain bin shopping - he at least has upside. Another name to look at for a pass catching threat at TE - Trey Burton. Not sure where he fits in the Eagles plans given they are smack up against the cap (actually over it for 2018 before any contract adjustments, etc.)
