We've got an article in the Dallas Morning News today from David Moore about Dak Prescott and what the Cowboys are thinking about his contract situation. It's widely assumed that Dak is going to get an extension to lower his salary cap number this year so they can be 'all in'.
If that happens Dak will likely be the highest paid player in the NFL. But David Moore is bringing back up an alternative to that. A different way to save some money against the cap without an extension.
How likely is it that the Cowboys will do it? And why is it in the public eye right now? I gotcha.
We've got a big ol' day of Dallas Cowboys content to get through today with Jeff Cavanaugh and former Cowboys WR Jesse Holley.
Micah Parsons, Brandin Cooks, Stephon Gilmore all weighed in on Tank Lawrence saying the Cowboys were 'burned out' against Green Bay in the playoffs.
Micah and Jerry talking about what this team needs to add.
Jimmy Johnson is advising Jerry Jones now.
Tyron Smith wants to do another year in Dallas. Do we want that?
Today's Bleav in the Cowboys with Jeff Cavanaugh and Jesse Holley will focus on three key things:
Will the Cowboys feel Dan Quinn's absence and why? Plus the names to know to replace him.
Jerry Jones can't stop himself from drumming up interest in his team even though it works against them. Stop talking about Bill Belichick.
Micah Parsons podcast comments ran a bus right over his teammates and coaches.
Congrats to Dan Quinn on getting the head coaching gig in Washington. That might be a fun place to build something with new ownership and a new GM. But what you care about is the Cowboys.
So I'll run you through why I'm fine with Dan Quinn leaving and the names to know for who will be the Cowboys next defensive coordinator.
Jerry Jones used the words "all in" 5 times when talking to the media at the Senior Bowl yesterday. Let's talk about exactly what he means when he says that.
I have one takeaway for sure, and a few that are speculation. Jerry KNOWS that's what his fan base wants to hear about another disappointing season.
The actual translation of his words? Let's work though it.
I've got a 3 pack of Dallas Cowboys content for you today.
I've got my top free agent target for the Cowboys. He's not the sexiest name, but you probably know it and he fits exactly what this team needs right this second.
A story about Stephen Jones in the draft room that's just more evidence of how we're probably screwed as Cowboy fans.
The Cowboys current situation at running back, and how they're going to address it this offseason.
We've got a couple of nuggets on what the Cowboys plan to do to be able to add players this offseason. Todd Archer reports that they already plan to restructure the contracts of Zack Martin and Trevon Diggs. Martin is the more interesting one and I'll tell you why.
The Cowboys financials also demand the extension of Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb. We can walk through that as well.
The how and why of everything that the Dallas Cowboys are about to do.
I got a comment on a video the other day that was a really good point about a way I've failed at trying to get the Cowboys to build their football team.
What positions are the most valuable and what does it mean for how you put together a roster? Run stopping, linebackers, running backs, the 'least valuable' positions still matter.
How the Cowboys offseason needs to be geared to correcting these things and what lessons we can learn from the 49ers, Lions, Chiefs and Ravens.
Happy Wednesday!
This week's Bleav in the Cowboys we get Jesse Holley's reactions to Mike McCarthy sticking around, questions and concerns about Dan Quinn's defense and a look at the storylines being generated by family members of ALL THE BEST COWBOY PLAYERS.
Come on down Prescott, Lamb and Parsons families.
Let's zoom on out and take a look at exactly where the Cowboys are with their roster and what needs have to be addressed this offseason.
That will include conversations about Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb and a bunch of the other big names.
But also which free agents do they need to prioritize bringing back? And how do we fix up the groups that are shorthanded at the moment?
Let's get ready for draft and FA season!
