Cowboys 2025 Free Agents

[jarntt]

Does any team hold on to those old college scouting reports like the Cowboys do? Year after year we have some of the the worst coaches and we somehow think we are the ones who will turn these guys around

No one is rushing to sign Rico yet.

I would be shocked if Rico got $6M. If he comes in under $5M, I would be good with bringing him back and still drafting a rookie

At least we didn't give up a 4th for this one lol. It's like they are throwing darts in the Dart, just sign as many 1st and 2nd round busts as you can and hope one pans put

I'd give Rico $10Mish over 2 years and play both of them. I might still draft a RB if one I loved was there but at least they wouldn't have to force it. They could do it if they felt the talent and value was there when they were on the clock like a draft should go. Right now we are still in desperation mode at RB.

RB and corner are definitely state of emergency. If we bring back Rico ro pair with Williams, a kid like Blue from Texas around round 5 would work for me. A kid that can take it to the house

I don't want him back. I want a rookie RB since we signed Williams.

Rico is better than Williams. Williams would be a better 3 than 2

And I just can't remember when one of those busts ever did anything. These dummies still are thinking quantity over quality. They could have brought Gholston back for what they signing two busts for. It's like the grasping at straws. They obviously learned nothing

That's 100% right. Spend the money they spent to bring back Lewis and Golston and if you're scared to spend more money, draft someone late or sign a UFA.

My problem with that is Williams was not good last year and they had some other guys who played better than him in the same situation and who were younger and less experienced who weren’t expected to be as good. A rookie is a crap shoot year one. So that could leave us even worse off than last year. But, if we hit on the draft pick then it works out great. This is what happens when you have so many holes and don’t fill them in free agency. You need to get lucky in the draft and there are only so many early round picks to fill them with.

Yeah Williams hasn't been the same player since his knee injury

Bryan Anger back on a two year deal

It's all about the contract amount. If someone else wants to pay a guy more than he is worth, you wish him well with his new team and sign someone else instead. There is always another player out there

I just think this is the right approach. Osa was the closest must resign we had. Perhaps Turpin was #2.

Lewis at 10M per was too rich for this team.... same with Golston at 6. This is a 3rd place team with talent and holes. Dallas should be a bit shellshock about last year's injuries...filling position groups with guys who has played in the league seems understandable. New staff, coaches are like male dogs, and the team theme is competition. I'm certain coaches have talked at length which resulted in a group opinion/ direction. These small time moves like early signings of their three special teams' gems, Osa, Turpin, along with experienced veterans at positional needs competing for jobs. This team knows the holes, know the attitude desired, and have a plan. I like it, I prefer the staff see themselves as a contender...this motivates everyone.


IMO, additions at LB, corner and another Oline vet sure would be nice.
Will Hernandez?
Gilmore?
EJ Speed?

TRADE?
