Cowboys Free Agency Thread

[Chocolate Lab]

I still wonder what happened to Cheeto. He was so good early on IMO. Not sure how or why he fell off so much last year.

 

[Simpleton]

Worley has legitimate starting experience, so that's a pretty solid depth signing at this point, and what I assume we signed him for.

Not sure why we signed a schlub like Canady before him but whatever.

In reading up on Worley, that seems to be his strong suit, getting his hands on the football. He had a good number of picks in college, especially the year he entered the draft. Unfortunately, he also seems to have the same affinity for getting into trouble off the field. I hope that's behind him.

Could be special teams. Could be that Worley's price had to come down. Not sure if it would have impacted our ability to get comp picks. I'm sure there is some rational there but in terms of corner depth Worley is a better player than Canady. I'm still not convinced that Worley isn't being signed to play safety and compete with Woods and HaHa for playing time.

 

[Cotton]

Didn't he play some safety last year, too?

Would be nice if we knew on Gregory's suspension so we could make a decision. If the NFL isn't letting him back soon I'd pull the trigger on Griffen ASAP

 

[boozeman]

Awuzie played some safety in college too as I recall. They may be considering moving him there as well.

That is more in line with what the Worley signing is all about. Awuzie may be the one moving inside.

He’s the one that I think might possibly come at a reasonable price. Not so with Clowney.

Yeah Clowney is going to sign a one year deal with someone for 15 mil and then hope to cash in on a mega deal next year. Not worth it to me.

He’s NEVER been worth it in my opinion.

He didn’t do squat in Seattle did he?

 

[Smitty]

Clowney is ok but he's never had double digit sacks. And yeah, he had 3 sacks last year for Seattle.

I'd be for sure interested, but.... depends on the cost. Also keep in mind we have a ton of young DL and someone would have to get cut. Joe Jackson or Dorrance Armstrong probably gone.

If anything maybe you are buying yet another comp pick if you give him a one year deal and then he signs another big contract with someone else the year after.

Maybe if you could get him for a reasonable mid-term deal (3 years).

Now they no longer count in the compensatory pick calculation.

Except nearly kill Wentz, not really.

Cowboys signing OL Cam Erving.

Wonder if it's to start at center.

Like booze said: They aren't effing around.

Wow. Fat Mike is playing for keeps.

I don't think Erving is in the running to start anywhere. Swing interior and can play tackle.

 

[Simpleton]

I'd imagine that's purely a depth signing, perhaps as a swing tackle or could kick inside if need be.

I'd be pretty shocked if he started at center over the 3 in-house candidates.

Very solid signing at this point though.

Another radical difference in the regime. They are not allergic to veterans and are not programmed to like what they have.
