Who did the Cowboys lose that they can't replace?

The real question is who are we going to replace them with and are they actually going to be an upgrade over what we lost. I'm sorry, but I don't see a bunch of late round rookies coming in and replacing Church, Wilcox, possibly Claiborne, and the other guys we're losing without missing a beat. We're going to sit pat while all the other teams stock up on talent and then try to load up on other team's castoffs and wonder why our defense ends up failing at critical junctures.

The Cowboys will sign FA's after the market calms down like the Cowboys always do.

Then use the draft to fill in.

Main thing to remember, the players who left were replaceable.

So, pretty much the same as the past 20+ years?.....I think the Jones' have the definition to "reactive" and "proactive" mixed up.....Lets face it, there's not a person on this board that cares about losing players, as long as the players replacing them are upgrades. My question is this; if we can't afford to sign the players we already have, how can we afford to sign players that are upgrades?.....

I wouldn't be too worried about DC. They're back to the days of Danny and Vinny running the show with Scot off the scene. If the starting QB wants to be traded away, who'd really be going there for anything other than money at this point?

The Eagles and Giants are a different matter. Although, I wouldn't exactly think being in a NY market with Marshall and OBJ in the same locker room that fireworks and distractions aren't too far around the corner.

The Eagles to me are the team that on paper seems to be filling their needs the most productively so far and getting better.

This sucks

Alshon to the Eagles
Marshall to the Giants
And now Pryor to the skins? What does Dallas do? Just keeps losing players. How anyone can believe this team is competing next year is beyond me.

Marshall at this point of his career is a name; not a commodity.

It's probably because the team has done the exact same thing each of the last, what, 5 offseasons and consistently gotten more and more competitive in the process that's throwing everybody except you off here.
