    Mickey on the blitz....no big free agents?

    Don't worry. There's a week and some change left. Plenty of time for Mickey to cover all his bases by saying Dallas will sign everyone with a pulse.

    Archer with info on the Spencer tag

    Because "less than great" can get the job done so long as the team quits fucking around and pretending like he's some superhero. No team has studs at every single position. Sign him to a cheap long term deal acknowledging he isn't what he was hoped to be and start addressing the other holes on...

    Archer with info on the Spencer tag

    And all that re-worked space just gets pushed to the future years. Wasn't there another team in the NFCE who constantly reworked contracts and pushed cap hits into the future nearly every year? What team was that?

    NFP Wes Bunting - Raning the top 34 DE prospects

    Same thing he couldn't do at Memphis. Make plays.

    Well, he's not younger. Spencer is actually older by like 2 months. Not that it really matters. Additionally looking at track records, one guy has shown improvement especially in the last couple of seasons and the other guy has been stagnant for a few years. It depends on what you want I...

    Brooks didn't get 16M in signing bonus. He got 7.5M, the other 10M is in the form of other bonuses that he wouldn't get if he never played another down.

    Of course it doesn't prohibit them from doing whatever they wanted. Signing all those players never stopped Washington from signing more. Being able to do something is no excuse for doing it if you don't have good reason. Fact is, they could do more with more so no matter how you look at the...

    Ellis: Let's Say You Did Sign Mario Williams . . .

    I don't think Dallas would absolutely have to switch. Ware dropped into coverage about 15% of the time. Spencer about 27% of the time. Spencer also played more passing downs than Ware so it's kind of hard to know exactly what Spencer was doing when Ware was on the field or when Butler came...

    I don't think Houston can tag him. If they tag him they owe him way more than any other player. I read somewhere there was an escalator in his contract that says if he were to be tagged his salary goes to 120% of his salary from the previous season. His salary last year was 18M so they're on...

    I've never understood the "you'd be pissed if he performed elsewhere" argument. Obviously there are circumstances when I would buy into that. Say, an player the cowboys picked up late in the draft or signed off the street who was cut to make room for a kicker. Yes, I would be pissed. But, to...

    I let Spencer go knowing I can upgrade CB (Carr), NT, (Pouha) and C (Myers / Wells) with the majority of their cap hits being covered by Spencers 9M. Call me crazy but I'd rather sacrifice 1 guy who isn't in the long term plans if it means I can acquire 3 top performing players for the length...

    No, he is not decent in coverage no matter how many times you say it. He's marginal in pass rush, very good against the run and subpar against the pass.

    Bingo. Tagging Spencer means the team passes on filling other holes. So, tag Spencer and have more holes to fill next year when Spencer is no longer or around. Or just let him go and improve a greater number of players around that position.

    I guess Watkins is thinking it's going to happen. I pray Dallas makes it passed the deadline without taggin him.
