Cowboys weekend mailbag: Should the Cowboys get Charles Woodson

Dallas Cowboys Blog | ESPN Dallas — The Cowboys weekend mailbag has returned. Let's get to it. Q: Judging by what we've seen and expect from Bruce Carter and Sean Lee, who do the Cowboys covet more, long-term wise, of the two skilled linebackers. TBro (Parts unknown) A: I would say both. Lee is the signal caller and the main tackler, but Carter is just as important. Lee's contract is up at the end of this season and the Cowboys will extend him long-term. Carter's deal is up after 2014 and the Cowboys will also give him a long-term contract.

Rob Gronkowski cancels Las Vegas trip

Boston Globe — Is Rob Gronkowski being told to curb his enthusiasm again? Last winter, after the hard-partying tight end was seen wrestling in Las Vegas — with a broken forearm — many believe he was told by team officials to calm down. (A few weeks after the wrestling incident, Gronk was pulled out as red carpet Oscar correspondent for the “Rich Eisen Podcast.”) Well, last week we noticed that an entity called JumpSeat was offering fans a chance to fly to Las Vegas with Gronkowski in a private jet — for a mere $40,000. (Presumably, what happens on the plane to Vegas stays on the plane to Vegas.)

Geno got in 'trouble' for playoff talk

Jets Blog | ESPN New York — A few seconds after being drafted by the Jets, Geno Smith did an on-camera interview and predicted a playoff appearance. He's not sorry he said it, but that was his last Joe Namath moment, he claimed. "I've already gotten in trouble for saying some things about playoffs and things, which I don't regret," Smith said Sunday on SiriusXM Radio, speaking from the NFLPA Rookie Premiere in Los Angeles. "I don't think I'll go as far as being as bold as Joe was.

Sunday notes: Idzik's first two blemishes

Jets Blog | ESPN New York — A quick check on the Jets: 1. Double trouble: John Idzik has a solid plan for rebuilding the Jets, but the plan isn't foolproof, as we now know. The new GM endured an Ike Davis kind of week, as he apparently has swung and missed on his first two free-agent signings -- QB David Garrard (retired) and RB Mike Goodson (arrested). Fortunately for the Jets, they weren't huge financial commitments, but that doesn't mean Idzik gets a pass. In both cases, he took a calculated risk -- and came up short.
