Would any signing at this point make you happy?

Even this early into free agency - it's too late already.
They have gaping holes on both sides of the line, picking up scraps off the bottom does nothing for this team. When we were only looking for some complimentary pieces anyway, our front office **** the bed. Being short on draft picks this year, we cannot cover everything we needed to.
I have learned to hate the Joneses - pompous, I'm smarter then all yall, lying sacks of you know what.

Is there any cause to be happy with a new signing, what are your thoughts. It sucks just sitting back and watching!
Post #2 would make 88% of the fan base happy.

Cowboys, like they always do, will use FA to fill holes. So they will sign people. Pay attention to the players they sign. Those will probably not be the positions we draft on day 1 and 2.

exactly. The 2 jackasses went on vacation which tells the entire NFL world, they are either clueless or they purposely don't care about bettering the team on the field. They run this team like the family piggy bank and hobby, instead of a football business and team.

I like D'onta Foreman and I like the talent of Dobbins just not the injury history.
Calvin Ridley is still available, so that would be good add.
If they do decide to go tackle Tyron and Bakhtiari are interesting adds.
There are some edge rushers still available for our rotation.
I would definitely welcome DJ Reader to the team.
At linebacker, still got White, Kendricks, Wagner, and David available. Also, some other bodies that would be an upgrade to the current dire situation at the position.
Could always add some vet depth at CB.
Still Safety help available if they feel we need it.

I'll sign for league minimum...I can be:

Camp fodder
Investment advisor for those who DIY
Chef for those who don't cook
Designated driver

Whatcha think Messrs Jones?

Go Cowboys!

no, in fact, i would rather see no signings at all....go as cheap as possible and get out of this dak situation....keep the young guys that are valuable and let the football gods tank this team this year....I am very glad that Dak does not have an extension as of the official start of FA, nor have they talked about one...
Bingo !

Lot of the popular names remaining have one foot in the football grave or come with a rash of recent injury concerns.

That being said, I think you could get a LB, a RB, or a DT in here for some depth and leadership if nothing else. Crossing fingers at this point.

I would be happy if they sign a "good" LB....I hope that ship hasn't already sailed!! But, I'm afraid it will most likely be a JAG signing.

Since I believe we are 5-6 players away from true super bowl contention, not really.
Here is the problem..............we need 5-6 starting level players...........you are lucky if you get 1 or 2 out of your draft class.

Where are the other starters coming from if they wont even pay $4 mill for a starting RB???

I don't agree. Last year, we re-signed Hankins then drafted Mazi.

Dallas likes to sign place-holders that makes the Joneses feel like they don't have to force a pick. None of those players are valued highly enough or cost too much for the team to not turn around a draft a replacement.

A good example of this is James Washington. Dallas traded Cooper and lost Wilson in free agency and then signed Washington as a cheap FA. That didn't keep them from drafting a WR (Tolbert) in the third round.
