Interesting tidbit about Elam…his dad, Abram, played for the Cowboys in 06 and 11. Was starting safety in 11.

Another solid signing. Just like CB, you still need to draft a LBer but it doesn't make it a flashing red light like it was before.

Sanborn joining Eberflus is very Kendricks rejoining Zimmer. Good to have a guy who already knows the system in the room.

Bills fan buddy says he's not good and was likely gonna be released later this spring/early summer fwiw.

He did get burned against KC so I think there's some recent bias there.

He def hasn't lived up to his draft pick but he's a guy that has played CB in the NFL. It's better than what Dallas rolled out a few games last year. Go back and look at some of the guys we had to play last year.

If you are bringing him in to be your 2nd CB, you're in trouble, but if he's your 3rd or 4th guy, this is a good move.

Apparently the new MO is short, cheap contracts for 1st round busts?

I don't mind that strategy at all. Bet on pedigree and see if a change of scenery/system has any impact on performance.

We need bodies. TBH everyone in the league needs bodies.

I think it's past due to up the 53 man roster size. Not by a large amount, but. A few bodies

He was the 47th ranked corner in the league last year by PFF, and better than nearly half of the starting corners in the league by their metrics

Nice day from the front office. Acquired 2 solid linebackers and a corner.

His strength is man coverage and the Bills play a lot of zone. Not a good fit there.

As frustrating as the cowboys can be, they have a had a good little run here. Solid job of rebuilding the roster.

Sure need to add a WR.

Good for him! Always liked the way this guy played the game and he deserves it.

But this is one the Cowboys got right. We drafted a guy last year (Kneeland) that should be able/ready to slide in and take his spot next year. I can't say that Kneeland will be better, but he appeared to be very solid last year at a fraction of the cost.

Sam Williams should also be in the mix

I'm the opposite. Most of these 1st round guys are physical freaks that have been able to dominate inferior talent in high school and college. In the NFL, everyone is a physical freak and you actually have to work hard to be good. I see a first round bust and my first thought is that they are too lazy to be good or have other mental issues that keep them from handling the pressure

Rico to the Panthers.

1 yr worth up to 6.25 mil.

Another good one to let walk. I liked Rico, but what we saw last year was the best he's ever going to be. Hopefully we draft a new starter in 1st/2nd round and then double up with another in the 5th or 6th round.


On the WR front, Rams just released Kupp. Be interesting to see if Dallas makes a play. Could be a nice addition if he can stay healthy.

agree. Happy for him but glad Dallas didn't pay that.

Also agree that I would love to see Dallas double up at running back. There will be another decent RB available in the 6th or so.

Interestingly enough both Kupp's father and grandfather had short stints with the Cowboys.

Given that info, almost guaranteed that Jerry makes an offer

Not only that but overpays
jr15aggie

I think the only way to overpay somebody like Kupp is to give him a deal that has cap implications 3-4 years down the road.

We have cap space right now... if you do overpay, dump the overpay into his year 1/2 salary. Just don't give him a deal that forces a few million in dead cap space if we cut him after a year or two.

I think they might be trying to get Amari Cooper on the cheap.

I almost feel like we might be wasting our time with these has been WRs over 30. Don't think we'd get any more from them than we got from Cooks.

I'm wondering if our best bet is to draft somebody like Bond from TU (probably have to take him in the 3rd). I haven't studied him specifically, but if he's a legit burner/deep threat I'll take it. We already have a WR that can get open from any spot on the field.... I don't need another possession receiver to pair with Lamb... I want a guy whose speed scares the bejesus out of the other D coordinator.

Agree. The Kupp and Amari Cooper talk is kinda Meh, to me. Cooper looked washed in Buff.
