News: Tyron Smith not considering retiring wants to return to the Cowboys

[KingintheNorth]

Why would he retire. Makes crazy money. Doesn't practice. Plays half the games. Has no responsibilities. Is never held accountable. Seems like a good gig to me.

He also dominates when he does play sooooooooo

Good we need him

just like we need jeebus

Tyron gonna be the highest paid part time employee ever.

Say what you want about Tyron but money has NEVER been his motivation. He took an amazing team friendly deal to repay the Jones' helping him out during some family tribulations he was dealing with.

Does that mean he plays in the NFL because he really likes to play football?

That's a rare guy, there....

I would like to spend on defensive toughness in FA (NT and thumping LB) and draft offensive toughness this year (C, RB, OT for the future).

With all of the OT talent in this draft, we would likely be able to pick up a good one in the middle rounds, that needs a little work and who that can replace Tryon in the near future.

The article alludes to why Tyron took such a team friendly deal 8 years ago.

Does anyone know how Jerry helped him and his family out?

Cleared all their debt?

They need to give up on the backups that have been here for several years now, get some fresh guys in here

Lol very funny, never held accountable for what???

 

[Coogiguy03]

Sign him to a 2-year deal (for cap reasons).

Draft his replacement at 24.

no thanks!!!!

If I remember straight it wasn't such a team friendly deal according to the critics. They scrutinized the Cowboys for signing him to a 8 year deal but in the end it worked out well for both sides.

Kept his family away from his money. Was a huge problem when he was first drafted. Not his immediate family but mom, dad, brothers, sisters, cousins. Everyone comes out of the woodwork when you hit the lottery! Jerry and team put controls in place to protect him.

just like we need jeebus

Maybe not that much.

Yes.

Tyrons family was bleeding him dry of money. Jerry stepped in and say no more of this and helped Tyron

aww you've said more words to me, is this what true friendship is?? Lol, what are your thoughts???

Happy to have Tyron back - for the right price.

If you include playoffs, he started 15 out of 19 which is very solid.

No it was the complete opposite. It was so team friendly that the players association actually investigated it. A tier 1 position player taking himself out of free agency for a decade is unheard of and monetary wise idiotic. Luckily for us Tyron didn't care.

 

[Runwildboys]

Besides the GM and also the VP/Director of Player Personnel?

You think he's part time? He may not be an efficient worker, but he probably spends more time working than anyone else.

Is this the best day of my life!!?!???
