What does T.O. do now?

5:42 PM Wed, Mar 10, 2010 |  | 
David Moore/Reporter    Bio |  E-mail  |  News tips

Baltimore's interest in Terrell Owens waned after it was able to acquire Anquan Boldin. Now, the very same day Owens is in Cincinnati to visit the Bengals, the club reportedly signs another former Cowboys receiver _ Antonio Bryant _ to a four-year, $28 million contract. How rude. It's also got to be quite a blow to Owens' ego. Where does T.O. go now?...



Jerry Jones: Cowboys will start scheduling free agent visits soon

David Moore/Reporter    Bio |  E-mail  |  News tips

Jerry Jones spent several hours at Valley Ranch Wednesday morning discussing free agency before he left to take part in a press conference at Cowboys Stadium for the upcoming fight. Jones said he has a sense of what the club will be able to do in free agency and said the team is ready to start scheduling visits. "I don't want to give a time, because this has everything to do with their schedules,'' Jones...

David Moore/Reporter    Bio |  E-mail  |  News tips

SportsDay's Dallas Cowboys beat writers are examining the best draft picks by the team at each position since 1967, the year the AFL and NFL stopped drafting the same players. Best Michael Irvin, Miami 1988, first round (No. 11 overall) Is there any question? The most prolific receiver in club history owns all or part of 20 receiving records. He caught 750 passes for 11,904 yards and 65 touchdowns in a career that was cut...

Jerry Jones does not want Roy Williams nervous

9:30 AM Wed, Mar 10, 2010 |  | 
Todd Archer/Reporter    Bio |  E-mail  |  News tips

At the NFL Scouting Combine owner and general manager Jerry Jones said he wanted his players to be "nervous" in 2010 so as to avoid complacency. Yet when the talk turned to Roy Williams, Jones was protective of the wide out. How does he reconcile the two options? You don't need to manufacture things to make Roy nervous, just our situation," Jones said, "and as a matter of fact his ability to handle the things...



Jerry Jones wants to see Martellus Bennett become more consistent in approach

9:00 AM Wed, Mar 10, 2010 |  | 
Todd Archer/Reporter    Bio |  E-mail  |  News tips

On Sunday tight end Martellus Bennett had some interesting things to say about his role in the Cowboys offense basically saying with more opportunity he would produce more. He also said he had a long meeting with owner and general manager Jerry Jones. At the end of the season, Jones said it was time for Bennett to mature as a player. Some of his actions this off-season on various social media outlets have frustrated some...

Jerry Jones doesn't believe the Cowboys are falling behind NFC East rivals

10:50 PM Tue, Mar 09, 2010 |  | 
Todd Archer/Reporter    Bio |  E-mail  |  News tips

With free agency closing in on its first week, the Cowboys have not done a thing yet. And that's fine with owner and general manager Jerry Jones. The New York Giants have signed safety Antrel Rolle and quarterback Jim Sorgi. Philadelphia has re-signed wide receiver Jason Avant and fullback Leonard Weaver and has corner Marlin Jackson in for a visit. Washington has played it slow, too, but signed guard Artis Hicks. "I watch keenly what...



Jason Witten to be honorary starter at Bristol Motor Speedway

Todd Archer/Reporter    Bio |  E-mail  |  News tips

Having just arrived back in the country from a tour overseas to visit military personnel in Afghanistan, Jason Witten will be busy next weekend, too, as the honorary starter for the Food City 500 at Bristol Motor Speedway on March 21. Witten grew up 15 minutes from the speedway in Elizabethton, Tenn. He was scheduled to be the starter a year or two ago but a scheduling conflict arose. "This is really going to be...



The Who Dat! bottle of wine no longer exists

We mentioned earlier how Manny Pacquiao brought Jerry Jones a bottle of 2007 Caymus Special selection cabernet sauvignon as a gift after Sean Payton took the last bottle Jones had had on reserve with St. Elmo Steakhouse during the NFL Scouting Combine. Payton wrote a message to Jones on the bottle when the Cowboys arrived for a team meal the next night: WHO DAT! World Champions XLIV Sean Payton That bottle, however, does not exist...



Splitting training camp sites looking more certain for Cowboys

5:12 PM Tue, Mar 09, 2010 |  | 
Todd Archer/Reporter    Bio |  E-mail  |  News tips

Owner and general manager Jerry Jones was not ready to make any announcements Tuesday regarding the Cowboys training camp, but look for their summer to be split between San Antonio's Alamodome and Oxnard, Calif. "It's got a good chance of happening," Jones said. The plan would be to open training camp in San Antonio around July 24 because of the team's inclusion in the Aug. 8 Hall of Fame Game, and then travel to Oxnard...



Jerry Jones would like CBA talks to include "poison pill" options

5:06 PM Tue, Mar 09, 2010 |  | 
Todd Archer/Reporter    Bio |  E-mail  |  News tips

Jerry Jones is not necessarily worried about a team coming after restricted free agent wide receiver Miles Austin, but he is concerned about dealing with a possible "poison pill" contract that would make it even more difficult for him to match in an uncapped year. After Minnesota and Seattle got involved in those dealings regarding Steve Hutchinson and Nate Burleson a few years ago, the NFL did not ban such contracts but let it be...



Spencer only flourished once Greg Ellis was gone

4:59 PM Tue, Mar 09, 2010 |  | 
David Moore/Reporter    Bio |  E-mail  |  News tips

Todd asks the question on an earlier post if you would be open to having Greg Ellis back on the Cowboys roster. My question is this: would Anthony Spencer have developed into the player he was at the end of the season if Ellis had never been let go? I don't think so. Remember, Spencer got off to a slow start. He failed to record a sack and had more than five tackles in a...

SportsDay's Dallas Cowboys beat writers are examining the best draft picks by the team at each position since 1967, the year the AFL and NFL stopped drafting the same players. Best Emmitt Smith, Florida 1990, first round (No. 17 overall) And to think Jimmy Johnson really wanted linebacker James Francis in the first round, only to see him go to Cincinnati. The Cowboys "settled" for Smith to complete what became known as the Triplets with...
