Yeah, those three should be solid for next year and CUT Escobar. What's up with Hannah btw?

Hannah sounds like he had microfracture surgery... they were pretty vague about it as a team but Broaddus mentioned something about it on the Break

Good! I want this guy back so badly for at least one more year. He has been our rock and I can't wait to see him celebrate greater achievement with the rest of the organization. We are close folks.

He will be a great mentor for RRRRRICCOOOOOO.

Some people bash JWit for being a statue and can't move or run fast and so on. But the bottom line is his career average is 10.9 and this year it was 9.8 so there wasn't a big dropoff. Considering the leadership and lockerroom stuff he brings I'll take a small 1 yard per catch dip in production. He is a HOFer and Cowboy icon and will be truly missed when he leaves. And I will still proudly wear my JWit jersey every time I put it on.

I think he needs about 17 yards to pass Irvin. Needs 11 receptions for 1100 and 112 yards for 12,000. Might as well change the odometer as he is that close.

I can't believe people thought he would retire now. He still catches everything his way and finds ways to get open. I still think he's top 8 at the position

Hopefully we get a graceful transition like the Chargers experienced this year.

He can still be useful, however, he turned in the fewest yards since his rookie season and 2nd fewest yards per reception of his career this year AND will have a $12M cap number next season.

There will need to be an adjustment in his salary....

You beat me to it. Jason's base salary next season is $8 million. That's too much. He's going to need to be willing to play for less.

He brings some special things to the roster w/his savy and his intangibles. But his wheels have 200,000 miles of tread.

He's my favorite player, but I hope he can keep it up. I have no idea how he gets open, and he runs like his feet hurt.

If only Marty B had some sense. He can catch, block and he's athletic.
Can you imagine if we could get a good TE on this team. The way Dak throws the football, a complete seam running TE would be perfect. More important then a second wr.

I like it
I am of the opinion that Witten is the glue on this offense. He sets the tone by his work ethic, quiet intensity and no nonsense attitude and he is always open. He is the ONLY player I would put in the ring of honor from the current bunch
I need more Witten and Lee on my team not less
