whew,thank god DORSEY signed,wife bought me his jersey a while ago,...guess id look pretty dumb with a jersey and no player to go with it

[Three Jack]

The NFL HAS to get a rookie salary cap like the NBA. The amount of money, guaranteed no less, that unproven players get it ridiculous.

Matt Ryan is making more than Tom Brady this year. He has yet to take a snap in this League. That isn't right!

[seaofred]

i agree with you both

[DDP713]

the matt ryan contract is crazy, they need to restructure these rookie salaries.....

The Cowboys roster is STACKED this year... Felix Jones and Mike Jenkins are nice but damn it looks like the big D is gonna give the NFC East major problems this year
