What in the world will they do with Jaylon Smith?

[ElGatoGrande]

I think they should have him sell beer in the stands,,, provided the fans don't mind him spastically spilling beer all over the place and delivering it to someone in the wrong section...

I'd slow your roll. Cox has barely flashed on special teams and Neal looked like the worst player in camp until this past week.

Cox has barely flashed on special teams? I don't know what games you've been watching

 

[SlammedZero]

Is there a "Cleveland" out there that will take him on a Brock Osweiler type trade? haha

 

[sjmike]

I think Cox will be a good player for the Cowboys, but in what little I focused on him against the Cardinals, he didn’t seem to play all that well.

Must have been really little

Here’ my idea….,

 

[Jarntt]

One of the most surprising moves of the NFL offseason thus far was the Rams' decision to cut Todd Gurley. It cost them $20.15 million in dead money, second-most in league history. It left him off the roster less than two years after signing a four-year extension, which was set to begin in 2020.

"Part of the reason Los Angeles elected to make this move was for financial reasons. Cutting Gurley saved the club from paying him $10.5 million guaranteed"
Not the case with Jaylon since we already passed the 5th league day of this year when his 2021 salary guaranteed. But that is exactly why everyone was speculating he might have been cut months back and it would have been smart THEN. Now the next cuttable date becomes the 5th league day of next year which is what I said. It's not the same if you cut him in August

Here’s a good link from Spotrac showing Jaylon’s contract details. Looks to me like 2022 he’s gone.

Yes sir, that's where I got my numbers. Love spotrac

Parsons, Neal, LVE, and Cox are an outstanding group. If Smith was an undrafted free agent, he would be cut.

I wouldnt consider LVE to be outstanding at much of anything. But as far as Jaylon, he should be cut.

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

I'm going to guess he's going to be a June 1st cut after the season.

 

[CowboyRoy]

He will make the pro bowl again this season and next as a Dallas Cowboy

And the best is resident homer Royaice liking this laughable comment. Now I can laugh at him until we cut Jaylon.

 

[Risen Star]

A lot of people are imagining he has it Or reverting to the bashing technics that were used when he was a rookie

Nobody's imagining he has it. He has it.

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

I disagree teams have cut or traded players with higher cap hits. where there’s a will there is a way.

I could see us trading him and a 5th for a 4th. That seems to be how trades are done nowadays.

 

[Sheepherder]

Put him on special needs.

Too bad they can't put him on the practice squad.

 

[Cowpolk]

Too bad they can't put him on the practice squad.

Yep that would be a great place to put our best LB.

 

[Jipper]

Make him a pass rush specialist…aim him at the qb and let him go situationaly

 

[MaineBoy]

Jerry also drafted Parsons, Cox, and signed Neal.

oh, this is a fun game....my turn....Jerry also hired Garrett and then kept him way too long, and gave Jaylon and Zeke ridiculous contracts, and delayed Dak’s contract so they had to overpay him, and hired MM which many believe is an uninspired, retread hire, and let MM hire Nolan - a huge failure, and I’m getting tired now so I’ll rest till it’s my turn again...

Ok I will play who hired Jimmy Johnson and bought him a Superbowl quality team? And yes he bought Jimmy everything he needed to win.

Lol…and you’ve only touched the tip of the iceberg!

 

[Flamma]

Thanks to his bad contract, it would cost the team nearly $10 mil in dead cap money to cut him now. If you wait to next year, it drops $4 mil.

Bad contract for who? He can be cut after this season and never see any of the money in his back loaded contract. Of course he did that to himself.

 

[Buzzbait]

I'd slow your roll. Cox has barely flashed on special teams and Neal looked like the worst player in camp until this past week.

If I heard correctly I believe they said on the news last night that Cox had 7 tackles against the Cards?
