Ware Release: has the Organization Changed? ***Ware Mega Merge-place all Ware threads here please***

[big dog cowboy]

Don't worry, guys, we're stacked along the DL as I've been told by the Cowboys staff.

WOW on day 1 of FA? Really?

I'm just expanding my ignore list.

Hats off to Ware and his agent for standing up to Jerry and his son by saying no. Ware was a man of his word. he said he would not take a pay cut to say here, and he did not.

I don't think we'll go after a lot of DL in FA to be honest; we might pick up a veteran DE/DT to pair along with Hatcher, but I think our #1 pick starts at whatever position is open.

 

[unionjack8]

Truly I hope we dobt bribg back hatcher or spencer. Its rebuild Time not reload time

I guess the big question here is what type of money he'll get on the open market. With the Browns, you might be looking at $10 million per and that's not even hyperbole.

Some team will over pay for him.

The issue is that Jared Allen and other big names are also out there, which could drop Ware's value.

We already did. Glad to be moving on.

 

[Apollo Creed]

Good dude, good player, I wish him nothing but the best.

Who you going to blame for losing now. can.t be T.O., Barber or Ware anymore.

What are you rambling about? Ware was worthless last year and on the decline of his career.I'm extremely happy we let him walk. I understand you are probably still emotionally attached to him but this is a business. Time to move on from an aging/declining player. I wish Ware well..

 

[DOUBLE WING]

Ware may or may not still be a productive player in the future. I'm not going to pretend to have a crystal ball, but letting him go is absolutely the right move. Doling out big money to guys at the end of their careers is exactly how we got in this cap calamity in the first place. This was a rare smart move by Jerry Jones.

Sad, but true.

 

[visionary]

Just hear me out on this.

We sign Revis if he's available. Draft Gilbert. Then instead of fielding DEs, we go with extra CBs and run a ton of CB blitzes.

We phase out the DE position and cross our fingers that Revis, Carr, Claiborne, Gilbert, Scandrick, a mid round draft pick or two and Webb is enough depth until we can add more next year.

You down?

Oh ah ah ah ah.

I would agree if Carr and Mo had not already demonstrated that they are shut down corners

That is why we were a top 5 defense last year

I agree with doing away with DL and going with TE and WRs in the draft

I'm glad he was a man of his word and didn't take the paycut either. Goodbye Ware.. nice knowing you.

Excellent post. Wish all fans could be as sharp as you.

 

[CowboyGil]

My buddy who's a Giants fan said Eli should send Jerry a fruit basket with a thank you note.

 

[Cowboy Brian]

This burns...

 

[Zordon]

Wow, I am in total complete shock.

 

[Nirvana]

Doesn't sound like Peppers and Allen are in our plans.

 

[visionary]

Revis is available. That should give the DEs extra time to get to the QB.

"Coverage sacks" here we come
