I know it saved him some money but Jerry is a guy who will spend some money for a quality product. Also, why isn't there more teams just beating down the door of this ex-Cowboy behemoth to get a shot at him? You would think one of the top linemen in the league would be getting more play from teams. What's up? Something doesn't feel quite right. Help me out.
There is a common misconception that some teams NEVER lose any players to free agency because the cap is not real. But that just is not true.
This year the Cowboys have already lost Randy Gregory, Cedric Wilson, and Conner Williams to free agency and traded away Amari Cooper. Last year we signed Awuzie away from them. The year before that they lost Byron Jones, Robert Quinn, and Randall Cobb.
No matter how much the juggle the books no team can keep and pay every player they want.
