Glad MM concentrates on the WR position and its depth, one thing I have hated about this team in the past is carrying useless WRs.

We have always been decently lucky with health at the position but it is nice to have depth there.

Any money spent on players counts against the cap.
Isn’t there a limited pool for these guys
Seems like I read there is sort of a cap in the cap and I had read that romo got the max back then

I think when you are dealing with under developed players you have to give them some time to develop
Brown I think has been given that time but I get not just churning them every year
Part of the reason guys are UDFA is they needed to grow as players

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaassss!!! This is exactly what I want!!!! Our last Aussie punter was a beast, and I'd like another please!

Matt McBriar!
I've always wondered why not. The top dudes over there make too much money to move here to punt, but there's a **** ton of dudes who can kick the crap out of the ball.

I'm sure there would be a learning curve to kick the different ball. But they are awesome at directional kicking, and they are tougher than your average punter. And athletic enough to present a fake punt option, and a last wave defender.

That, and I have an open thread involving 3 punters I found from the Japanese X-League I think the Cowboys should bring to camp. Do have a look. You may be surprised.

Yeah, and that player from last year is on the list. I also found a guy who's punts actually look similar to that of McBriar.
Wonder why they don't tap more of the overseas markets for kickers. NBA and MLB are finding real gems. MLS and NHL been killing it for years.

I'm not sure. It's the most transferrable skill and it could make us better. Landry did that by bringing in Fristch. Why not see what is available in those leagues? Plus, it helps develop that league because it means they can play in the NFL.

Brown has had his time but spent the time on IR every year.
