Cowboys "covet" free agent CB Brandon Carr
According to Pro Football Weekly, the Cowboys "covet" free agent CB Brandon Carr and are expected to "go all in for him" when the market opens.
Carr is a big, physical corner with experience in both man and zone schemes, and he'd be a sizable upgrade on Terence Newman at left cornerback. The Cowboys can release Newman after March 13 and "designate" him a post-June 1 cut, saving over $6 million in cap space. Carr will command a pretty penny, but the secondary was Dallas' most glaring weakness for much of last season. Related: Cowboys

What is worse? Having players that nobody wants? Or, having too many players you can no longer afford because they're so good?

I would be very sad if we lose Carr. I would hate it even more if he went to an AFCW team. My next level of hate would be the Cowgirls, though. Then, maybe the Steelers and after that, the Patriots.

If Carr gets that type of money, it was a good move letting him go.

Carr and his agent know what's up. And they probably have all along.

And to his credit... Pioli has always been pretty good at knowing what other teams are doing. Of course that's probably because their phones are tapped, but what are you going to do.

I hate to say it, but Pioli may have made a smart move signing Routt.

I don't mind losing players to other teams because we can't pay them, but I think good teams get draft picks for those players when they leave. It seems like we're going to let Carr go and use our franchise tag to save a few million dollars in negotiations with Bowe.

Carr strikes me as a guy who has a good head on his shoulders. He'll view this as a business decision first and foremost - which is likely why he hasn't re-upped with the Chiefs, yet.

If he's smart (and I believe him to be), he'll play for the team that offers him the most cash up front. The only leverage that Dr. Evil has is the franchise tag and that's why the negotiations with Bowe are probably intense right about now.

It's kind of non-traditional for us, though, Mr. prhom (did I spell that right?). We normally have like maybe 2 or 3 really good, young players and a bunch of mediocre guys. As we improve, it will get a little more difficult to pay full market price for everybody we'd like to keep. I guess good teams face that problem all the time ... I'm not very used to it, though.

Carr will INSTANTLY be considered a top 5 cornerback before he plays his first game in a Cowboy's uniform.


ESPN will blow him up to Deion Sanders stature just because he has a star on his helmet.


I am already getting sick to my stomach.

He'd be dumb not to treat this as a business deal. He's very early in his career and history should tell him that he's not going to win a championship or get paid ridiculous money playing for KC. Playing on the same team as friends and for a coach you like only go so far.

In a sport where you never know which down could be your last.....I don't blame players one bit for chasing the money. Good for him.

Zactly, veterans that have made their millions can afford to restructure and play where they like, but he's just about to be set for life. I'll enjoy watching him play and having everyone think the cowboys found him like Jared Allen was with the vikes.

This is also why I feel kinda bad for Matt Forte. What kind of deal can he get now that he was injured? The bears didn't pay him and now he may never get his payday.

I still think he gets paid. He is too critical to their offense for them to let him walk.

This statement is riddled with full reerun. You can't expect to get compensation on every guy that reaches free agency because he is a good player. I understand wanting to, but this philosophy is a first class ticket to cap hell. You would have to sign every guy to an extension before they reach free agency. The "spirit" of the franchise tag is not to keep a player held hostage from free agency so a team can try and get compensation for him. The NFLPA would NEVER agree to a system like that. Carr has earned the right to get top dollar for his services. If he wants to make the best business decision for himself (even if that means leaving KC) all we can do is wish him well and thank him for his service.

Bowe is more valuable to this franchise than Brandon Carr........especially after signing Routt. Carr is a fringe top 10 player at his position and Bowe had 1159 receiving yards with Matt Cassel, Tyler Palko, and Kyle Orton throwing him the ****ing ball!! JFC I don't get the debate on this topic guys......
