I don't remember when all these players were signed or when Collins was released, but the Cowboys lost a lot of players they could not afford to keep.
Randy Gregory to Denver 5 year $70 million
Cedrick Wilson to Miami 3 years $22 million
Conner Williams to Miami 2 years $14 million
Collins to Bengals 3 years $21 million
DE Dorance Armstrong (2 yr $12 million) was the only one of their own players that they re-signed for more than $5 million a year.
Dontea Fowler (1 yr $3 million) was the highest paid free agent they signed from another team.
So the Cowboys obviously had some cap issues.
