Cowboys sign Keanu Neal to a 1 year $5M

 

[scotsman1948]

like Pitts?

oh i think we might find him okay

not the point...The topic was..." JJ will probably go for someone we don’t need"

there are many many needs other than 3 receiving TE's

i agree but he would be the lesser of many evils

Outside of QB I want BPA.

Really solid signing.

Really solid signing.

You think?
let’s see what the plan is for him but I’d prefer some Other players at that price. So far we have added a bunch of guys whose teams didn’t seem to want them on defense. Maybe we are successfully rebuilding our depth or maybe we are just reliving the past mistakes we see every single year. I like the Urban signing And think he helps our run defense. The rest...I‘ll just try to be optimistic about And wait to see the contract details and hope they are all cheaper than I’m assuming and with minimal guaranteed money.

Dan Quinn knows what he brings, he'll have a use for him.

not saying he is the savior of the franchise but i think each signing including Neal has been at least a B- and am going to wait and see what else we do in the rest of FA and the draft before i give up

So you thinking he stays at safety? it would be idiotic to give him $5 M to see if he can play LB every down. I bet it isn’t $5M guaranteed.

he is an in the box safety which is mostly what Wilson did last year. Neal isn’t a FS which is what we need. I’m thinking he is going to play that rover or nickel LB spot

The thought of Daniel Jones getting sandwiched between Neal and Wilson is appealing to me. They both bring it

What's the likelihood they're both on the field together? If they are the team better get to the QB in long before 3 seconds.

I'd say outside QB, RB and WR if Gallup isn't traded.
we should be able to find a starter who contributes for this team. If not the NW tackle, we have to go defense at 10 IMO

I agree especially at RB, but i don't see that as an issue at pick 10.

 

[jarntt]

This would make a lot more sense IMO if they pull off something like this

 

[jarntt]

Kazee is the guy Zeke steamrolled right?
I would love Hooker. Plus it would really open up a nonstop flow of “Jerry pays for another Hooker” jokes

 

[scotsman1948]

So today’s decision day on Jaylon Smith. They either automatically pick up his 5th year option of 7.2M or pass on it. Personally I would pass on it and then re-sign him to 1-year deal at a lower number around 3m

 

[jarntt]

Can you say Jerry project...


ISAIAH WILSONT, UNSIGNED FREE AGENT

Dolphins waived OT Isaiah Wilson.​

Wilson was late for his physical, on-boarding process and skipped voluntary workouts. He also "refused team efforts to help him to get his life on track" after a lost rookie year. Wilson lasted less than two weeks in Miami after washing out his first year in Tennessee. Releasing Wilson won't cost anything since his salary guarantees were already voided. Wilson has been a total bust since getting drafted with No. 29 overall pick last year. His off-field baggage makes him unlikely to resurface this season.

Not 5th year option. I don't think the team has ever considered cutting Jaylon and I think the day was yesterday. But, if you get a young guy in the middle of a huge deal with that much dead money it's to say goodbye, not bring him back for less

 

[jarntt]

I missed this deal. Another guy I would have rather seen us pursue. The Eagles paid way too much but at a price like this he is a guy that could have provided some penetration at the 3 tech for us for a year or two

Browns signed DL Malik Jackson, formerly of the Eagles.​

Jackson returned to the field last year following a season-ending broken foot in 2019 and contributed 28 total tackles and 2.5 sacks across 538 (49%) defensive snaps for Philadelphia. Cleveland is Jackson's, 31, third team in the last four seasons, and the fourth for his career. He'll slide in as a rotational player on passing downs.
