I don't think you can blame the (now ex) GM on that. It sounds like he's basically been MIA since Feb. I don't think he had anything to do with them tagging Cousins again. He's been out because his 'Grandma died' since some time in Feb. Given his past alcohol issues, it sounds more like he has been in rehab or something similar, again.

Making Cousins one of the two highest paid players in the NFL over a two year period and still not even having him locked up long term probably didn't help. i don't know what to believe coming out of the redskins camp, but i know one thing, Snyder and Allen fucked everything up. |

Glad to see Kyle Juszczyk getting paid good money.
He is a good guy and always comes back to his high school every year to host a youth camp. The high school players help and he signs every autograph request. I know there are lots of NFL guys that do this but my sons have met him and he's a good role model. |

Skins should try to trade Cousins to the 49s for their 2nd pick and take Watson

My guess is that Jerry has already had a deal made for Romo and it is probably final. He wants to wait until today or Monday to break the news so that it is the main headline. He doesn't want a bunch of other deals being talked about along with the blockbuster trade that sends Romo and a first round pick down to Houston and sends JJ Watt up to Dallas.

As a Cowboys fan I'd be pissed to trade a first round pick for JJ Watt and his massive contract. JJ Watt of 2 years ago: absolutely. JJ Watt with a fucked up back and a cloudy future: no thanks. Sure it's possible he returns to form and plays at a defensive MVP level for 10 more years, but I seriously doubt it. I think his best days are behind him and while Watt at 75% with serious injury concerns is still better than most other DE's, I don't think it's worth giving up a first round pick and then having to pay him $17M a season to get him. |

View Quote chances are, you're not going to find a great pass rusher at 28. that's more 'solid starter' territory. a big problem is that the draft is exceptionally deep in the secondary, so there's a good chance that every team might push corners/safeties down the board and concentrate on the small pool of edge rushers in the first. if that's the case, then i'd like to see DAL go secondary in both the first and second rounds. |

View Quote pryor isn't homegrown, although his move to WR (after years of refusal) happened immediately after being cut by cincinnati. pryor wanted top money, so CLE was faced with a choice of paying a converted QB after only 1 season of quality production, or dumping him. dumping him was probably the right move, allowing the brownies to spend money elsewhere. this is where the osweiler deal fits in. it seems pretty evident that they don't want osweiler--they just used the cap space to buy another high draft pick. since they've been pretty bad historically at talent evaluation, drafting via the shotgun approach makes sense: more picks equals a higher chance of success. over the next 2 years, CLE now has 3 x 1st round picks and 5 x 2nd round picks. that's just unreal. |

Dallas needs secondary help almost as much as a pass rusher, especially since Barry Church left. On the other hand, part of the reason, IMO, they have secondary issues is they are all exhausted because they don't have a pass rush worth a damn. View Quote it's weird. DAL's pass rush sucks, except that they were 13th in the league last year--better than either super bowl team. and per PFF, they had the best overall secondary in the league last year. but objectively speaking, both of those units desperately need help. if they can't get harris, barnett, or taco, i'd like to see them pick up jabrill peppers in the 1st and a corner in the 2nd. just pull a parcells and spend the entire draft on the defense (except maybe a WR in the 6th). was glad to see church get paid, but it really sucks to lose him. he has been a warrior and leader on that squad for a long time. same with leary--DAL was right not to pay him (frederick is only making like a half-million more), but he has been busting ass for peanuts for a long time now. |

Cowboys signed Terrance Williams to a 4 year/$17M deal. View Quote nothing against williams--he's worth significantly more than that on the open market--but i don't like this move. the problem is that you can't have gold-plated everything--you have to economize somewhere. and adding $4.25M per year to an already heavy offense salary column is just bad business in my eyes. DAL now has 3 WRs on substantial contracts (including a top contract for dez), the highest TE cap figure in the league (witten), 2 top OL contracts (smith, frederick), a $7.5M cap figure for the RT, and the 10th highest RB cap figure in the league. not to mention romo's dead money hit, and the need to exercise martin's option. at this moment, DAL has $106M allocated to the offense, and $36M allocated to the defense. that's not how you build a championship team. |
