Is even less worth big dollars than Clowney.

I don't think it will. I said as much. That said, if they're stupid, use the tag on Dak, and don't get a deal done with Lawrence before the start of free agency, you pull a private jet up to his house, fly him in, and don't let him leave until he signs a very large contract.

I agree he would be a free agent worth using a huge amount of the excess cap space on. He will get tagged and signed of course. But we can dream.

Why are you guys so worried about the money? That is probably the least of the worries concerning Bell. We have plenty of money to sign multiple top FA’s if they want to. We have no big impending FAs on our squad. By the time Nelson, Leonard, and some of these other guys roll around, the contract will be nearing its end. I’m more worried about locker room fit than money.

Do you think Jerruh will be willing to risk "his QB" hitting free agency to retain Lawrence? It's the smart play, but Jerruh makes some dumb decisions sometimes.

He should be looking for another QB. Dak is pretty overrated. Harder to find a top pass rusher than a mediocre QB. But I think they have enough money coming up to sign both. Shouldn’t be a problem. They also have Elliot and Cooper coming up as well. Elliot will get money like Gurley.

I know they have the money for both. My hope is that they'll lowball both in negotiations, panic, franchise Dak, and let Lawrence hit free agency. It's unlikely and it would be stupid of them, but I have hope.

Yeah I doubt that also. He knows Lawrence is the guy other teams would want to sign. Dak straddles the Dalton line, doubt many teams would chase him. Trying to think of a single team that would.

Bell is pretty complete and you can use him a variety of ways. Think Marshall Faulk. Just because Bell is on the field doesn’t mean Mack couldn’t be as well. I like Hines but he is not as good a catcher as Bell is right now.

We are doing ok now with what we have. But I want to see how this team does against a smart defensive team like the pats. The pats will take away TY, and probably Ebron. Ebron surprised them last game. We will need to beat them with other guys. That is where a third weapon shows its worth. Remember we are talking moving from a good to a great team.

I like Mack, I started this thread because I thought he deserved props, but is he good enough to take a game over. I see flashes, but I want more consistency. This team was stagnant in the second half. Until Mack’s late runs nothing was happening. Although I feel the Texans gave up at that point.

I mostly only pay attention to the Colts cap, so I have no idea what the Cowboys are dealing with, but if it involves losing Lawrence they are not doing it right. I hope that is true.

I think Inman can be that guy. Also, Hines has shown he can in spots as well.
