Cowboys & Winston Close To A Deal

The Dallas Cowboys are close releasing offensive tackle Doug Free and signing free agent T Eric Winston.




@PFCentral
Breaking: Cowboys tried to get Free to restructure to their liking so expect his release and Eric Winston being a Cowboy before Thursday!!!

Edit: This guy throws a lot of stuff out there. Always claiming that he broke stories before Glazer/Schefter, etc.

I have some concerns with Winston. There are rumors about knee and back problems and if he is still playing well, KC should have kept him. Getting rid of Free is a good move wheather they sign Winston or not.

I have heard the same on Sirius, think it was Pat Kirwan

Impossible we can't afford him.

Seems like a stretch though with the draft 5 days away. I imagine they could do this same thing on friday

If we do sign Winston before the draft then we won't go with someone like Fluker if Warmack, Cooper, Richardon are gone by 18.

Looks like it'll be Vacarro if he's around at 18. :suicide

If we go DT and Richardson is gone, give me Sylvester Williams. Or maybe even trade out of the 18 and gain another pick.

To hell with Doug Free.

There shouldn't be any "convincing". It's as easy as telling him his play has sucked balls for 2 years straight and he can either take a cut or be cut.

There shouldn't be any back and forth between he and the team about this.

Free was a very solid RT for us 3 years ago. I'm not sure what happened.

Isn't that what they are doing? He has to play at a discount or get cut.

I don't think there is anything else to it.

Winston doesn't play every position on the OL. he also does nothing to fix the gaping hole in the interior so no, signing Winston (or Clabo) wouldn't mean they weren't taking another OL early.

Who is the person who put this out there? Just some Joe random fan?
