Sam BradfordI would check to see who pays for his plane ticket to Philly.
Isn't Sturm from Green Bay?What does he mean "as an owner of another team"?
I think so. The real difference is that the reports say he reached out to Philly, not his agent. For that to be so public, along with his taking down of Cowboys related photos, showed some immaturity on his part. I don't think guys will hold it against him that he is trying to get paid, but the way he is going about it is pretty gay.Its a business these days with the players. Very little rivalry so I highly doubt this causes any locker room strife if he comes back.
I just can't see it.Maybe Kelly knows bringing him in will piss his team mates here off and when Kelly tells him to go away he knows he's done here as a player cuz some may not take him back. It's a ruse...

Of course...all will be forgotten, but it seems a bit dramatic right now. Even the stuff about him not being contacted by the team for some time, yet he was just at a basketball game with Garrett, Witten, and Romo.Adrain Peterson contacted Jerry. I'm pretty sure it happens more than we hear about. Im just not bothered by it and he may get some hazing about it from the players. I just don't think its going to cause a stink to anybody but the fans. Once he scores that first touchdown everything will be forgotten.
I like Ajayi a lotAfter Gordon and Gurley I'd go with Ajayi and Coleman. Backs like Abdullah and Duke Johnson are a little undersized and I don't think would fit our system as well, especially with block and blitz pickup. I think we're looking for more of a power back and with blocking ability.
The one knock I hear about Gordon is some fumble issues. Gurley's is the concern about his knee, but that could be dispelled by his pro day and prodding. Ajayi and Coleman are late 2nd to 3rd rounders but we likely can't gamble they'd be there at the end of round 3.
I think it is just a business to most guys. Do you get mad at your coworkers for talking to another company about a job? Management may not like it, but the locker room should be fine. Only position that doesn't apply to imo is QB since they are basically an exstention of the staff on the field.I hate to be over dramatic about this, but am I the only one who thinks going to Philly for a visit would be like a point of no return?
This is a hated rival and a team we were having on the field scuffles with just 2 months ago. I know it's a business, but isn't there something wrong about him dining out with the Eagles brass, then hanging out with some of their players and having a good laugh over a few beers.....then coming back to Dallas and acting all normal with his teammates here who hate the guys in that locker room?
And it's not even about the whole "OMG he went to the rivals!!11"
I'm talking more on the personal level with the Cowboys organization and locker room.
Am I alone in thinking that maybe this is something he can't come back from?
Just seems like there would be a small sense of betrayal in there.
That's a bit different though man.I think it is just a business to most guys. Do you get mad at your coworkers for talking to another company about a job?

It's a business for everybody. Murray has to get as much as he possibly can, because absent some historically unprecedented performance over the next 3-4 years, his stock will never be higher. Combine that with the general devaluation of the position, and this will be the largest contract, the most amount of money, he will ever make for the rest of his life. I doubt there is a player in the league that would begrudge him that, regardless of where he ends up.I think it is just a business to most guys.

Unless it comes out that we were seriously low balling him and offering less than 5 mill a year, then my stance in all this is F Demarco Murray.
