Cowboys almost $10 Million Under Cap, Have More Cap Space Than 21 Other Teams

[Theebs]

That's why these draft picks needs to pan out. Wilber needs to take over for Spencer, Williams for Austin, and Webb for Scan-dick. Someone also needs to step up and fill Ratliff's position as soon as we can get out from under that extension we handed him.

I think the only oe that will happen is Webb.

Sounds like spencer is going to get a contract and if Austin is healthy it's hard to believe he is cut for any reason. I don't see Williams being so good in the next two years that he sends Austin to the bench.

We cant' sign Spencer. That would be foolish.

As is, we currently have 141 mil commited to next years cap... and the cap is only going to be in the low 120's.

Honestly, without looking for an argument don't worry about it.

We should all worry more about Jerry saying or doing something stupid during training camp and I juries than the cap.

As long as romo is here they will find a way to manage it. The first year after romo or two the cap could get us.

But as log as you have a franchise qb just do what you have to while he is here.

Well I do worry about it because it has been this teams modus operandi to pay stars and have terrible depth.

We've had a talented 1-15 players on the roster for years, and they're all paid handsomely. But our 16-53 leaves a lot to be desired.

Because of traditionally bad drafting and horrific cap management... our depth on the team is lacking and it is a significant contributing factor as to why we've been an underachieving team since oh I don't know forever.

Sometimes you have to let talented aging players go. Especially when you have the Sean Lee's, Bruce Carters, Dez Bryants coming up for new deals soon.

Right but your mixing two things with this.

Honestly i have no interest to argue the salary cap it bores me to death.

we don't have depth because we've really fucked up some recent drafts, not because we don't have cap space. You can't get depth from free agency at that level. At that level you're getting spare parts, retreads and failed first rounders.

Disagree. Cap woes and poor drafting have both led to a lack of depth on this team.

 

[superpunk]

Disagree.

what's cute is you pom pom'd your ass off after each draft.

 

[superpunk]

PROVE IT

 

[dbair1967]

Mid should be banned for posting anything on salary cap...true story

 

[Midswat]

Oh David! You got me again you rascal!

Not sure what's worse. People being proven wrong or jackasses coming in after the fact thinking the original wrong poster "won".

It's the Hostile phenomenon, people so desperate to feel vindicated about their own thoughts that they start believing anything and everything their "side" posts, no matter how ridiculous.

Some of you aren't even arguing facts anymore. You just choose to neglect blatant proff that kills your original argument.

theebs says camp should be in Texas. He "wins". (Camp is not in Texas)
superunk says we can sign any free agent we want. He "wins". (We could not sign Huff)
dbair, in perfect dbair fashion, is just a f'ing cheerleader.

sp may be right about one thing, shark jumping has commenced.

 

[superpunk]

take your beating like a man cmd quit flipping the bird the people who can see you got your ass kicked, michael vick

the people have spoken you lost

 

[Midswat]

Could someone explain what jumping the shark means? I know what it means, but I don't get the analogy.

happy days, fonzi actually jumped a shark in an episode...

at that point everyone deemed the show dead, so jumping the shark became the symbol of something becoming tired, stupid, boring, dead etc..
