Would love to see us use the 6 million saved on McCoy on Snacks Harrison
I think they gained $3M in cap space this year from McCoy.

Depending on where you look we have between $6M and $8M in cap space right now. Ideally we roll it all into next year for when the cap drops, but if the right deal comes along for a guy like Snacks I think you jump at it. This could be the type of year where anyone could win it with some luck.

God I hope this is true, but 2 things stand out to me

1) From what I have read, McCarthy has yet to give anything other than incredibly glowing reviews for everyone and everything. I'm starting to not take anything he says seriously.

2) He hasn't yet had the luxury of watching Trystan Hill in live action ending up on the ground on half of the plays and pushed back to the 2nd or 3rd level on the other half

Two good reasons I called it Preseason Fluff.

We'll see soon.

Yup. If he plays like a 2nd round pick it totally changes this defense. His skillset is supposed to be a penetrator form the 3 tech. Having that would take us to another level. But, I just can't get passed what I saw last year. Guys improve, guys get stronger, guys learn the game, but he was just so horrible that it would be miraculous to see him play at that level :hope:

Dak said Aldon Smith is a monster . Him and griffen could bring some serious heat off the right side

until we actually see these players on the field all we can do is hope that what McCarthy and his coaches are seeing and saying are fact. will we be disappointed? probably but that's the nature of the game

And - within 15 minutes of me reading this, the “gonna sign Earl Thomas” tweets commenced.

Can’t make it up.

I just read this, and was gonna post it. CowboysNation mentions cap space for next season and Dak. That was my first thought too.

That would be the sensible approach... and the one I would take as well. Not clogging up next year’s already shrunken cap space with another big deal. QB1 is the deal.
