Cowboys may release Ware.

SmashMouth · 03-09-2014, 03:41 PM

Cowboys owner and General Manager Jerry Jones loves to make a splash in free agency, but at the moment he doesn’t have the salary cap space to do it.

Even after the Cowboys’ recent moves — including cutting center Phil Costa and restructuring the contracts of guard Mackenzy Bernadeau, quarterback Tony Romo, linebacker Sean Lee and cornerback Orlando Scandrick — the Cowboys only have about $2 million in cap space, according to ESPN.com.

Before Jones could make a splash with an addition, he may have to make a splash with a subtraction. And so the big question facing the Cowboys is whether they’ll release DeMarcus Ware, the defensive end they’re hoping will take a pay cut. If Ware doesn’t play ball on a restructured deal and Dallas releases him, the Cowboys will get $7.4 million in cap savings, which would put their total cap space at around $9.4 million.

He would look good in Black and Gold

Too expensive. We need help at many other positions at this point.

We cant trade him.
Even if he agrees a deal we are on the hook for all the signing bonus and gaureteed money.

Maybe we should get him if he'll agree to a discount...

No surprise ... Death star nation is in cap hell & this was a business move. Only if he would be willing to take a reduced salary and play for Rob Ryan & Company.
