Dumping Patrick Crayton proves money is priority
Dallas Cowboys Blog | ESPN Dallas — ARLINGTON, Texas – Why the heck would finances influence the Cowboys’ 53-man roster decisions in an uncapped season that will end with a Super Bowl in Jerry Jones’ $1.2 million football palace? I asked that question to Jerry this afternoon as he stood in his jewel of a stadium. “Well, I don’t know that it does, first of all,” Jerry said. “That’s a given that I’m not ready to say does.” OK, but let’s be honest. The Cowboys just traded Patrick Crayton, a productive player owed $2 million this season, to San Diego for a seventh-...

Dallas Cowboys Blog | ESPN Dallas — ARLINGTON, Texas – Owner/general manager Jerry Jones acknowledged that the Cowboys are discussing potential trades with “multiple teams” about “more than one player.” “It hasn’t happened, but there certainly is potential that we might make a trade before the cut deadline,” Jones said following the Friday press conference for the Manny Pacquiao-Antonio Margarito fight at Cowboys Stadium. “I’d say possible. Possible, but very real.” Jones declined to discuss specifics about the trade scenarios, including whether the Cowboys were...

Cowboys Blog | San Antonio Express-News — IRVING - Jerry Jones suggested that Sam Hurd didn't do anything in Thursday night's finale that would prevent the Cowboys from shopping him around to other teams. Hurd caught a 43-yard pass from Stephen McGee for the Cowboys' first touchdown in their 27-25 win over the Dolphins in the preseason finale. "We've got an excellent and have had before last night read on him as a football player," Jones said Friday afternoon. "...We certainly were glad to see him make that big play last night. It made everyone feel good. But we didn't see anything last night necessarily that we needed to see about Sa...

1 hour agoMcGee defiant after big night
Cowboys Blog | San Antonio Express-News — ARLINGTON - Stephen McGee's 304-yard, one-touchdown, no-interception performance in leading the Cowboys to a 27-25 win over Miami Thursday night was indeed worthy of praise. But what the media was buzzing about afterward was the giant chip on the Texas A&M; alum's shoulder. Speaking to reporters in the locker room, McGee made it clear he's fueled by stories that point out his shortcomings as a quarterback. "I have been through a lot of ups and downs, and, for the past seven years, I have had a lot of critics that have told me I can't do things," McGee said. "There is a lot of pressure on me to...

Cowboys Blog | San Antonio Express-News — ARLINGTON - Outside linebacker Victor Butler is setting his sights high after a dominating preseason. "I have always had high goals and I hope to get 11-plus sacks this season," said Butler, who had three as a rookie last season as a situational pass rusher. Butler had six tackles, two sacks and forced two fumbles in the Cowboys' 27-25 win over Miami on Thursday night in the preseason finale. He finished the five-game exhibition schedule with 20 tackles, a team-high four sacks and three forced fumbles. "When you go out there and have a showing like that, it puts a little faith in the coaches ...

Dallas Cowboys Blog | ESPN Dallas — The preseason is over with. Thank goodness. We look at five things regarding Dallas' favorite football team. 1. The reasons to release or trade Patrick Crayton are many. Is it a right decision? No. The Cowboys need a trusted wide receiver with a proven track record on the roster and will not have any if Crayton is not part of the 53. You could say Miles Austin is a Pro Bowl wide receiver and you would be right in that thought process. However, Austin emerged onto the scene last year. He doesn't have a track record. Roy E. Williams has been bad since he's put on a Cowboys uniform and we're not...

Dallas Cowboys Blog | ESPN Dallas — There is an expectation several injured Cowboys players will practice next week at Valley Ranch as the team prepares for the regular season opener at Washington. Dez Bryant, the rookie wide receiver, said he ran full speed during Tuesday's practice said he felt fine and reported no soreness the next day. Bryant is recovering from a right high-ankle sprain. "I feel great," he said. "I'm full speed and I'm ready to get out and run." Strong safety Gerald Sensabaugh also practiced Tuesday with a harness to help a shoulder that popped out of place in the San Diego game. Sensabaugh said he didn't...

- Did Justin Tryon do enough to make the Redskins' final roster? Redskins Insider | Washington Post Third-year cornerback Justin Tryon intercepted a pass and broke up another Thursday night in a 20-10 loss to the Arizona Cardinals. But did Tryon do enough? Before his performance in the preseason finale, Tryon was on shaky ground to make the opening 53-man roster, according to people with knowledge of the situation. And it's doubtful he could have done enough in the last preseason game to effect a major change in his situation. "I think Justin can play in the league," defensive coordinator Jim Haslett said after the game. Tryon, a fourth-round pick in 2008, was a major contributor last season...
