Cowboys rework Dak Prescott, Zack Martin deals to free up $30M – Todd Archer, ESPN.com

As a way to get underneath the cap earlier than subsequent week, the Cowboys reworked some offers.

The Cowboys had been roughly pegged about $18 million over the cap, however these strikes get them underneath and provides them wiggle room to re-sign a few of their very own free brokers to-be, if attainable, earlier than the market opens.

The restructuring of the contracts doesn’t preclude the Cowboys from figuring out extensions for both participant later this offseason. Talking on the NFL scouting mix final week, government vp Stephen Jones stated the staff wish to talk about an extension for Prescott.

He’s within the third yr of a four-year, $160 million deal. He was set to make $31 million in base wage this yr with a $49.13 wage cap determine, which was the second largest behind Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson.

With the transfer, Prescott’s 2023 cap determine is roughly $27 million. His 2024 cap determine will rise to just a little greater than $59 million because of the restructure.

Report: Cowboys have ‘called’ about free agent Bobby Wagner – Brandon Loree, Blogging the Boys

The Cowboys are displaying curiosity sooner or later Corridor of Fame linebacker.

On March 12, 2022, the Seattle Seahawks and linebacker Bobby Wagner mutually agreed to part ways, and he signed a five-year, $50 million contract with the Los Angeles Rams.

Now, nearly a yr later, Wagner is once more a free agent searching for a house in 2023. The Dallas Cowboys had been thrown round as a touchdown spot final yr, given Wagner’s familiarity with defensive coordinator Dan Quinn. Dallas was out of the combination early as a result of the value tag was too excessive.

The second time round, the Cowboys are nonetheless prepared to kick the tires on the long run Corridor of Fame linebacker coming to DFW. NFL Insider Jordan Schultz reports.

The Cowboys actually want a veteran linebacker on the roster. The futures of Leighton Vander Esch and Anthony Barr stay unsure as they hit free company subsequent week. Dallas has Damone Clark, Jabril Cox, and Devin Harper underneath contract, however none of them have performed the place on the NFL stage for a full season.

With Dan Quinn returning to Dallas, pairing him with Wagner would considerably increase the protection if LVE had been to go away. The Rams didn’t launch No. 54 due to a drop-off in manufacturing. Wagner completed the yr with second-team All-Pro honors for 140 tackles, ten tackles for loss, ten quarterback hits, and six sacks.

Cowboys star Micah Parsons’ 7-word message to Darius Slay amid trade rumors – Gerard Angelo Samillano, ClutchPoints

Micah Parsons is making an attempt to recruit Darius Slay to Dallas for 2023.

Effectively, effectively, effectively, evidently the Philadelphia Eagles’ roster will look a lot totally different subsequent season. Star cornerback Darius Slay has been granted permission to hunt for a commerce elsewhere. Philly is making an attempt their finest to maintain Slay on the town, however groups will certainly look to poach Slay. Sensing blood within the water, Dallas Cowboys star Micah Parsons is already trying to recruit Darius Slay.

The Cowboys have already got among the best up-and-coming CBs within the league in Trevon Diggs. The All-Professional nook might be taught numerous tips from the veteran Slay. Having two elite shut-down corners would additionally open up extra alternatives for Micah Parsons to terrorize the quarterback. If this ever occurs, the league may be doomed.

Sadly for Cowboys followers, getting Darius Slay from the Eagles is simply in all probability a pipe dream. Dallas might be Philly’s primary rival, no less than within the NFL. It’s unlikely for Howie Roseman to commerce his star cornerback to their most hated rival, even for any value. In actual fact, maybe the one time Roseman would think about buying and selling Slay to Dallas in the event that they get Micah Parsons in return.

Keeping the Defensive Backs Healthy is Key for 2023 – Richard Paolinelli, Inside the Star

After Anthony Brown went down with an Achilles harm, the Cowboys’ secondary was by no means the identical.

The Cowboys defensive backfield was a MASH unit close to the tip of the 2022 season. 5 gamers within the backfield ended the season injured. Protecting this unit wholesome often is the largest problem for Dan Quinn.

As a result of, when wholesome, the defensive backs had been a giant motive why the staff completed third within the NFL with 54 sacks. Add in 16 interceptions and a league-leading 17 fumbles recovered and Dallas’ defense was strong.

However the injuries started taking their toll and the protection slipped down the stretch. The collapse at Jacksonville and letting Gardner Minshew carve them up the next week being prime examples.

Assuming everybody comes again wholesome, the Cowboys are setting very properly for 2023. Might they add one other veteran to the combination, particularly in the event that they lose Donovan Wilson to free agency?

I hear you Cowboys fans, asking for Jalen Ramsey or Brandon Jones. However these gamers will come at a excessive value and Dallas actually doesn’t need to spend the cash on this room.
