They don't see us signing any LB's, huh? I think we'll prove them wrong in that department.

I like...

6. Ferguson
12. McKenzie
13. Lucas
14. Dwight Smith (even though he's a felon, and I doubt dallas will get two FA's for their secondary)

Only one of them, Ferguson, is projected to possibly go to Dallas. I know these four, along with Bledsoe, make up a lot of $$$ in FA. Probably too rich for the Cowboys blood, but I can dream, can't I?

Great article thanks for the link!

They are right about us not signing any linebackers but we are definitely signing a safety.

Well its based on the fact that we havent come out and said we arent going to the 3-4.

If we stay at the 4-3 than we only need to draft one or sign one.

If we switch to the 3-4 than you will see the LB position addressed via Free Agency and the Draft.

ESPN makes me laugh sometimes, I wonder who put that list together ? Lamon Jordan the 23rd best free agent available ? Are you kidding me, it's crazy how quick, fast and agile he is for his size. He's a starter in thsi league hands down, and he'll be starting somewhere this year.

Yea that list did suck. Smoot is not the fourth best player in FA.

Although that would be real cool if we got Smoot and Law!
Jerry Jones did mention that we might get two CBs in FA.

I don't see how Washington can afford Rolle. They are going straight to Salry Cap Hell just like the Titans.

If I'm Jerry I'd try to get all theese players: (we'd have to cut Larry Allen)
Law, Hayward, Ferguson, Bell, and Rivera

Expensive.....Yes, but we can go to Salary Cap Hell too.

Draft: Merriman, Troy Williamson, Brodney Pool and find a big RB in 4th.

Only Hole Left : Right Tackle........... F'it sign Kareem McKennzie too.

Switch Brodney Pool to James Butler(That would be the guy who picked off Orton at the beginning of the Senior Bowl), he has better coverage which is what we need in our FS.

And that big running back you mentioned would be Shelton of Louisville

Here is what a beat writer from Dalla, Jean-Jacques Taylor has to say:

Q: Which players do you believe the Cowboys will pursue in free agency?

John Hazel, Richmond, Va.

TAYLOR: I think Dallas will strike fast and attempt to get several guys singed within the first couple of weeks so they can then focus all of their attention on the draft. That said, I think they'll go hard after cornerbacks Ken Lucas and Anthony Henry, right tackle Kareem McKenzie, defensive tackle/nose guard Jason Ferguson and guard Marco Rivera. I don't know if they'll get them all, but they're going to try.

wouldnt it be loverly

go cowboys
