We do need a guy like Suh on the Cowboys, but you can still hate him anyways

Don't want.
Want suh, but these big FA signings never work for a reason.
I went thru some of his prior tweets - his most recent prediction that could be proven/disproven:

Mario Williams disagrees
Nothing would make me happier.
We have a limited window with Romo. And Suh is a talent that doesn't come around very often. These are the type of free agent signings you make. On bug uglies in their primes.
Get er done Jerry.
If we have a limited window for Romo why would we spend all of our money on Suh when we could spend that on 3 or 4 starters? Isn't the latter smarter spending for someone who's window is "limited"?
We could be as much as 40-50M under the cap depending on what we do with restructures and what not. That is a ton. When you add in 3 premium draft picks (rounds 1-3), who you expect to be starters, and Suh you're approaching 40% turnover on defense as it is. Also the first year cap hit on free agent signings can be structured to be as big or as small as you want.
And that's before you remember that Suh makes your entire defense better. Quite literally makes everyone better.
We're assuming this team does restructures though. Maybe its safe to assume. I don't know. I'm just more so for the approach of getting more bang for my buck. And if Hughes from the Bills is available....I don't see how anyone can't have him over Suh. Suh may be the better player but Hughes fits a much stronger need and doesn't have nearly the baggage or history. Suh doesn't strike me as a "RKG". He's far too selfish.

Dallas is young enough and cheap enough to splurge on a few guys. Dez, Suh and Murray can all be signed easily. Carr, Melton , Free and Witten will be gone soon, leaving just Romo and TSmith as the big deals.
So you'd rather spend money on 1 first tier free agent and not spend on 3 2nd tier free agents?
We shall see.
But in my opinion i'm ok gambling on a talent like Suh into a locker room that has leaders like Romo and Wit and Dez (yes Dez).
Yes, this team needs a few All Pros on the defense too. We have enough mid tier guys.
I disagree. Its been proven you can win with mid tier guys. I don't think we even have that to be honest. I'd say we have a few 3rd tiers and maybe a few 2nd tier guys. You replace some of those 3rd and 4th tier guys with 2nd tier guys though.....it would be a huge improvement for this defense. Remember, we don't need the #1 defense in the league. We simply need one that can make plays and get off the field on 3rd down.
Exactly and Suh is the type of guy that make big plays by himself. He can make a sack/fumble on any down. Those are game changers.
How many did he make when his team couldn't get off of the field on 3rd down against us and we were converting 3rd and 15s? Or how about a week prior during the Packers game?
