    It’s time to move on from Dez

    I remember it well. Even Aikman got roughed up. That stuff went beyond the 80s. I was just pointing out that even the hall of fame QBs needed a supporting cast. I liked Romo but do not think he is hall of fame. Nor do I think he is anywhere as good as Fouts/Marino/Elway. I was just saying...

    Cowboys and free agency

    Not possible. His cap hit is only 3.3M this year. You can't get 4.5M out of that. Maybe they were talking about next year or the year after that when it more than doubles. Everyone always talks about Witten as if he's washed up. He runs some pretty nice seam routes down inside the 20, yet...

    It’s time to move on from Dez

    Marino and Fouts put up some good numbers and put on a pretty good show during their time. But they got to watch other QBs win championships. That was my only point. Marino actually tossed 300+ yard games with almost the same frequency as Romo. I don't even know what that means and I didn't...

    Cowboys and free agency

    The Cowboys might have to cut him. I think they'll be over 5M over the cap with the projected draft picks by the start of the season. There are not a lot of places to find that 5M. Looking through their roster, Dez is the only player that can create that cap space by himself. Otherwise...

    It’s time to move on from Dez

    Of course. Once a player gets a 5 year deal for 75M, including a 20M signing bonus and 45M guaranteed, he's set for life before the first snap. He's not going to care about being cut or the dead cap money. More owners need to recognize this.

    It’s time to move on from Dez

    You're absolutely right. But Dan Marino and Dan Fouts also netted zero championships and all entertainment, that doesn't not make them hall of famers. You still have to have a supporting cast. Maybe it's in the name?

    It’s time to move on from Dez

    I agree. What worries me about Dez is that he didn't do too well in 2016 either. I could be wrong, but it looks like he peaked and is now dropping off. I don't blame Dak for last year. No one had a good season last year except Zeke always runs well. Give Dak a good passing game and the...

    Cowboys and free agency

    Negative. Look at the links below. If you cut him before June 1st it's an 8M cap hit. If you cut him after that you only pay his bonus of 4M but the other 4M get added to next season. Explaining the June 1st Designation | Over the Cap Dez Bryant Contract Details, Salary Cap...

    Cowboys and free agency

    You're right, but all you're doing is pushing 4M to next season. So instead of next season being a 4M dead money hit, it's 8M. Money already paid to the player that is prorated throughout the contract can be delayed, but never goes away. Also consider this. What are the Cowboys going to do...

    Cowboys and free agency

    Dez is an 8 million dead money hit this year. Next year he's 4M. He's 16.5M against the cap and 8M if we cut him. The Cowboys won't even be saving 8.5M because the next man up in the (51) would count against that 8.5M. The best course of action would be one of two things. Restructure his...

    Collins Move Back to OG May Mean Money for Martin

    Agreed. Not a lot of cap space to sign him long term. After this season they need to dump Crawford and sign Martin. They will mostly cancel eachother out. It's a no brainer.

    Collins Move Back to OG May Mean Money for Martin

    Not saving any cap space by trading Martin. The dead cap would be the same as his pay for 2018.

    5 things we learned from Cowboys coach Jason Garrett at the NFL owners meetings

    Deion can be a dumbass sometimes. Dez has a 16 million dollar cap hit and hasn't shown up since 2014. That's why they're not asking Beasley or Witten.

    DMN: Why the Cowboys need to start wheeling and dealing right now

    I tend to agree because I don't think that will hurt us. I just don't think he's garbage yet. But I want to see him paid for the player he is today, not yesterday. If he can't handle that then he can test the market. I think a lot of our problems last season was gameplan related. Everyone...

    DMN: Why the Cowboys need to start wheeling and dealing right now

    This is what I would do based on what I think the Cowboys need. 1. Anthony Hitchens is probably gone, so don't over pay to try to keep him. Other teams have more cap space. 2. Sign Earl Thomas. 3. Restructure Bryant's contract, release or trade him. 4. Pick up a nice fat ass DT in the...

    It’s time to move on from Dez

    Did they come to that conclusion? Something we all knew, including them, 5 minutes after the play. Next up, horse shit does indeed come from a horse.

    Championship Game Day Thread

    From your keyboard to God's monitor. I hope you're right. But my gut feeling in the playoffs are usually right. I just don't think the Patriots are that good this year. Their success has a lot to do with the AFC not being that good. The Eagles are the real deal. With Wentz I think this...

    Championship Game Day Thread

    I will be rooting heavily for the Patriots in this Super Bowl. I don't care if they win 19 Super Bowls as long as the Eagles don't win any. But I'm hoping Brady has some more magic in him because after watching that game against the Jags I don't see them beating Philly. I just don't see the...

    Most important play in Cowboy history

    This was the play I was going to post when I read the thread title. It remains my favorite play to this day.
