Nothing new here but a basic summary of the Cowboy's off-season, with this conclusion:

"For now, though, I think the lack of headlines is progress enough. They've signed low-key guys who can contribute, I liked their volume approach to drafting, and they've done it all without being flashy or bringing distractions upon themselves.

"Progress: Personnel-wise, the improvements are subtle, but should be effective. More than anything else, I think everyone in the organization can benefit from a big deep breath and a sense of calm.

"Plus 1 game. 9-7 last year, 10-6 this year."
