I have never heard of this site. Just saw some stories on it that I thought I would post.

27 Feb Keith Davis To Test Free Agency

Safety Keith Davis will test free agency instead of seeking a contract with the Dallas Cowboys.

Davis told a PR firm that he would like to continue playing in Dallas, but he wants to see what offers he gets from other teams. He has played five seasons in Dallas and has performed best as a special teams player. He is the captain of special teams for the Cowboys.

“I’d love to be here in Dallas. I’m a Cowboys fan,” Davis said. “Just to play for them was a dream come true, first of all. I would love to be here, but I know it’s a business at the end of the day and I’ve got to do whatever’s best for me and my family.

This is another hit to the Cowboys secondary and a huge loss to the special teams if Davis jets. I think Davis realizes that he won’t get a ton of snaps for the Cowboys with Roy Williams and Ken Hamlin out there, but he is still a valuable player. I would want to see what teams wanted me full-time for more money, too.

I think if Davis does leave, the Cowboys will be forced to draft a safety in the third round of the draft, after a wide receiver, running back and cornerback are taking in the first and second rounds.

Dallas Cowboys Talk With Miami About Marion Barber Trade

NFL Network reported during the combines today that the Miami Dolphins and Dallas Cowboys are discussing a trade for the top pick. It was reported Dallas is considering trading Marion Barber and three picks for that top pick, which is going to be for Darren McFadden.

McFadden’s stock went through the roof today after he ran a 40 sprint time of 4.27, the fastest of the combines.

If this trade happens, there will be a horde of Cowboys fans that will go berserk. I am one of them. This trade really makes no sense because any dumb bell could see that the Cowboys need a ton of help in the secondary. That is the team’s most-pressing need. How the Cowboys address it is going to be incredibly huge for the future success of this football team. Seeking solutions in later rounds isn’t going to cut it. We cannot play a game of craps shoots with the secondary anymore!

Then, there is an aging wide receiver corps. Miles Austin and Sam Hurd aren’t going to be stars in this league. The Cowboys need to find a replacement for Terry Glenn and Terrell Owens.

Marshal Faulk and Rich Eisen couldn’t stop talking about Jerry Jones and the Cowboys giving the Arkansas running back such a strong look. Reportedly, Jones left after McFadden ran the 4.27.
For the life of me I cannot figure out why the Cowboys are even considering this trade. The biggest problem I have with McFadden is he is top heavy. He’s got chicken legs. I could tackle him by his chicken legs.

Then you look at a running back like Jonathan Stewart’s lower body and his 230-pound frame. You wonder how the heck he ran a 4.44. I wouldn’t want to be in front of J.S. at full speed.

I will keep an eye on this development, but I knew the tardiness of signing Barber is a signal of bad news. And remember, you heard it here first.

GAWD! I hope this isn't true, I love Barber and we know he is a starting RB after what he has done for us.
