The Dallas Cowboys do not care what you believe. They are prepared to do it once again. Cowboys EVP Stephen Jones spoke with NFL Media's Ian Rapoport today and provided a possibly grim outlook on the offseason to come. This is the offseason that will follow a horrendous season that was constructed on the structure of a dreadful offseason. The little piggy who developed his home on sand had a more steady setup going on.
Stephen Jones informed Ian Rapoport that the group is going to evaluate and analyze their dedication to high-end gamers and stressed that having actually a lot bound (income cap-wise) in a handful of gamers is something they are discovering to be rather ill-advised.
It has actually been that sort of season for Dallas, one predestined to end in frustration no matter how the last 4 video games of the routine season go.
Which is why the group's brass will invest the offseason taking a look at how they arrived and what led them down this discouraging course. Of note: Jerry Jones, Stephen Jones, vice president of gamer workers Will McClay and other members of the group's brass will check out the results that finalizing big-money, prominent, top-of-position gamers has on their rest of their lineup.
“To me, it would be reckless if every year you do not take a look at the complete body of work and the huge photo and how those guys suit that broad view,” Stephen Jones informed NFL.com at the conclusion of NFL's December League Meeting in Las Colinas, Texas, on Wednesday, “and how we wish to consider our group in regards to the huge photo moving forward.”
Let's stop here for a 2nd.
It is objectively real that the Cowboys have actually signed “big-money, prominent, top-of-position” gamers since late. Trevon Diggs, Zack Martin, Dak Prescott are all gamers who have actually signed massive offers that have actually missed out on time this season which fits this specific point. Certainly you can include CeeDee Lamb to that mix, however he has actually not missed out on time if we are splitting hairs.
What ought to be highlighted here though is that the 2 latest offers, Prescott and Lamb, were ones that the group entirely dragged their feet on. It goes without stating that there are varying viewpoints on whether the Cowboys must have extended Prescott particularly, however even if you are somebody who did not desire that, certainly you can acknowledge that if the group had actually been more forward-thinking about it then they would have conserved cash relative to wage cap area. What's more is if they had actually gotten ahead of it they would at present minute be that much closer to being able to leave it, if we wish to include much more to the point.
Residing in that point some more – as we have actually talked about lot of times – getting offers like that done ahead of time enables you the versatility to sign other gamers in the name of enhancing your lineup.
