That's a better excuse than he wasn't elite enough to draft in the 7th round at least.

Only if all other receivers on the roster are dead.

Not Cowboys related, but it looks like he is mentally prepared to kill this puppy.

Street's number already screams fail.

Because of Babe "lollipop" Laughenberg?

Take out the trash.

I think Miles Austin was 15 for a time.

Well, we kind of had to hit the 90 man roster limit.

So this was not really taking out the trash, but meeting the numbers.

I expect four hamstring pulls by the second exhibition.

I read an article that Miles Austin, DeMarcus Ware, Tony Romo, and Doug Free are the last 4 bad contracts that Cowboys have that need cleaning up.

How can that be? We have no money. And Austin and Ware are partially cleaned now.

Part of it is Romo taking up about 25% of the salary cap all by himself. Or at least it did before the restructure.

I thought Free's contract was basically fixed now.

I am a little excited for Ahmad Dixon. He wasn't my favorite safety but he was an absolute steal in the seventh round. I think he is easily better then a dude like Heath and may not be far off from Wilcox.

No, it's like 11 million next year I think.

I'm guessing that alot of it is dead money.

Carr's deal chews up 12 to just under 14 mil every year. Also, Romo's cap hit next year is 27 mil which is astronomical compared with anything out there. Sean Lee had better figure out how to get healthy, because his cap number jumps to 5.5 mil this year and only increases after that. Witten's earning his money, but his cap number nearly doubled to 8.5 mil this year.

Tyron Smith is tieing up 10 mil in 2015, and he should sign a massive contract to lower that number. Dez Bryant's deal is going to be INSANE.

We release Carr June 2015, Romo and Witten June 2016, and we can think about getting right.

Don't expect too much from Dixon. I think he has a good shot to make the team, only because of the utter garbage we're throwing out there at safety, but he's going to get picked apart in the passing game just like our other safeties.

He'll make some "woo" hits but he'll be out of position and slow to react on passing plays and we'll be cursing him before Halloween.

 

[boozeman]

Agreed about Dixon. Decent pick from the 7th but not a mega steal.
