Really shouldn't be as hard as some are making it. The team has to go after guys with talent, who want to be Cowboys, but most importantly at fair market price.

If Dallas has 26 mil to spend, you can franchise Spencer @8.8, even though my hope is he can be signed long term for something like 4 years 32 mil, with a 6 mil hit in 2012.
Sign Carr @5/50 mil (7.5 in 2012)
Sign Satele @3/11mil (3 in 2012)
Sign Farrior @ 2/5 mil (2 in 2012)
Sign Campbell @1/3.
Sign Adams/Elam @2/5 (2 in 2012)
That's 26.3 mil.
Restructure a couple of contracts and you get Robinson resigning @4/18 mil (2.5 in 2012), and Fiametta resigning @2/2.5 mil. Plus, room for your rookie pool. Which would consist of:



1. Melvin Ingram -- even if Spencer is resigned, I say his shelf life isn't more than 2-3 years. Here's his replacement, and they can play on the field at the same time.
2. Bruce Irvin -- everyone wants added pass rush, here you go. Slide the kid behind DWare to learn the craft and let him come in on passing downs. How do you like a Nickel Dline of Ware, Ingram, Ratliff, and Irvin?
3. Jamell Fleming -- big CB with the size and speed to press just not the skills, yet
4. Josh Norman -- slow 40 will hurt him, but if you watched the East-West Shrine and Senior Bowls you saw this guy can cover.
4. (Comp) Brandon Brooks -- big, nasty, and mobile G to throw into the mix of Costa, Kowalski, Nagy, and Arkin. Best 2 start.
5. BJ Coleman -- time for McGee to roll out. Kid has good athleticism and strong arm. Pro mechanics and was pretty accurate.
6. Evan Rodriguez -- solves the 3rd TE problem this year and probably can take over FB if needed.
7. Nicolas Jean-Baptiste -- hoping to catch lightning in a bottle for the third time (Ratliff, Lissemore)
