What it would cost to bring back Dowdle

[CWR]

You could do three years with apy around 6 but like 10 guaranteed. Something like that would be worth it imo.

 

[Coogiguy03]

It would cost us nothing but a draft pick!! There's plenty to pick from, thanks for everything Rico Suave!!!!

 

[starfan1]

Not sure but there's plenty of Rico Dowdle's in the draft. He had a good year and id like to keep him but if he gets a decent offer from someone else its ok to let him walk.

Agreed. I am not wanting to pay $6 million + and then spend a premium pick on a RB

 

[rambo2]

Draft 2 backs. Spend money on linebacker, corner, receiver, dline, and oline.

 

[reddyuta]

we need to draft 2 Rbs in this great class.

Rico was a product of Smith, Beebe, and Hoffman.

 

[TequilaCowboy]

Rico just is not worth that kind of money. He just looked good because the other RBs just plain sucked. This was his first year he was injury free, and would not shock me at all if he went back to being injured.

Besides, I think they’re gonna really grab a RB in the first couple of rounds.

 

[jazzcat22]

Say no to Rico. Maybe he gets us a 6th or 7th round comp pick.

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

Don't extend a RB unless they are generation and care about their health.

 

[RonWashington]

Based on what I saw and not just rushing close to 1100 yards he’s a nice receiving RB out of the backfield . Well worth 6 mill per multiple yrs .

Then round three pick a quality back and implement a dominating running game behind a young improving line which will help the passing game .

 

[Mr_437]

This report means Rico is hitting market, and already has a deal in place for more money than Dallas will give him. $6M is the starting point for Rico, and in a draft like this Dallas should let him walk.

Rico is a good RB, I'm not going to downplay his value. Just watch his highlights and see the vision, cuts, acceleration thru the hole, hands, blitz pickup and finish of runs with violence. Glad Rico is getting his paper, finally.

 

[MoistMayonnaise]

Laughing my *** off at all the nitwits here that complain about our lack of running game. Then Rico balls out with our terrible OL and gets the not worth keeping treatment.

 

[Killerinstinct]

It would be nice if they ever looked forward to the future. Should have extended him late last year for 2.5 mil a year. He would have taken it.

 

[Aven8]

No thanks

 

[Creeper]

Rico is not worth $6 million to me. Henry signed for $8 million last year, and Pollard for $7.2. I'd give Rico $4 million tops. They need a serious upgrade at RB. This draft is deep, get 2 and don't look back.

 

[Havic]

Im not bringing him back for anything other than league min. We will draft his replacement

 

[ChronicCowboy]

If Dallas wouldn’t pay Pollard 10 per, they aren’t paying Dowdle anything over 5.

 

[movaughn88]

He can ask for $6M all he wants and if he gets it, like the poster said good for him.

I'd offer 3yr/$12M and not move off that - if he takes it we aren't at square one with RB and can draft one.
