I don’t even know if Quinn will replicate his production last season, but I would take a shot at a player like Shaq Lawson. I’d give him 7-8m/year to see if it works.

Tony7188 Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 I'm letting him walk. 2 INTs in 5 years. He's not worth the money he's going to get paid in FA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plan9misfit Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 I’m not paying top CB money to a guy who can’t force turnovers. Great cover corner or not (which was only for 2 seasons), he has no ball skills whatsoever. If you can’t turn your head around and get INTs, then you aren’t worth the money. All it does is give the QB another down and opportunity to beat the defense another way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northland Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 (edited) So we are letting Jones walk. What's the plan for finding his replacement? Are we going the free agent route, or are we being forced to pick a CB at 17? Will we end up doing both?

I’d use a day 2 pick on a CB if the value is there, but I wouldn’t force a 1st round pick on the position. Someone will fall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Restructure Zack Martin for $8m, cut Crawford for $8m, and cut Flemming for $4m. Those are easy moves imo that put us at a little over $97m Pay Dak his $35 Pay Amari his $17 Pay Byron his $16 That's $68 97 - 68 = 29 So we have $29m left after signing our own. We could easily get Quinn for 12 or 13. Leaving $16 or $17m for a free agent DT and rookie pool. There is no reason we shouldn't be able to afford Byron, when the money suggests we can get all Dak, Amari, Byron, Quinn, AND have enough for a $10m a year free agent and a rookie pool. And that's with just ONE restructure What am I missing here? You are spending all our cap space on a handful of players and rookie pool. Don't we have like 30 free agents and how do we replace them with all the money spent? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most likely it’s going to be must lower than the average. In that scenario I would guess we would have around 35-38m in cap space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cowboysdreamer Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 He isn't worth $16 million, doesn't make enough ball hawking plays, I know he had hip surgery last year and gave up too much cushion in coverage but $ 16 mill. you will get CB in the draft that will cost you less. Who knows what the new coaching system brings to the Cowboys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plan9misfit Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 Another thing to remember is that Jourdan Lewis isn’t some schlub. He also forces turnovers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm good with him keeping his job in the slot. But, after we let Jones walk, I would really like to see us find some competition for Awuzie on top of finding a new RCB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
