A lot of Cowboys fans were very disappointed that the Cowboys didn’t pick up a wide receiver in this year’s draft. According to the media, Jerry Jones looked but didn’t find anything worth pursuing. When you compare the wide receivers available to those already on the Cowboys roster, there wasn’t much to gain. "I didn’t see anything that should be of interest," Jerry Jones said following the draft. "Relative to what we would need to make a trade. Did not see [...]

If I ask you which Dallas Cowboy linebacker is popular with the fans, had 14 sacks last season and will be receiving a large contract in the near future, who would that be? The answer is DeMarcus Ware #94! DeMarcus was born July 31, 1982 in Auburn, Alabama. He attended Auburn High School, which produced other NFL greats like Marcus Washington of the Redskins and New York Giants’ Osi Umenyiora. Washington started a celebrity basketball [...]

A lawsuit was filed Monday against Cowboys all-star wide receiver Terrell Owens. The Eagles claim that Owens has failed to compensate them for $770,000 owed in bonus money. Owens lost in arbitration earlier this year, when a judge ruled he had to repay $1.7 million to the team. As you know, Owens was suspended by the team in 2005 and lost nearly $965,000 in salary from the 7 games missed. In 2006, He signed a $25 [...]

I’m sure this blog will be frowned on by some but I have to be honest. I was disappointed with this years draft class. I’m not saying these players aren’t talented by any means. I just feel Jerry Jones squandered the two picks he had in the first round. This what I was hoping Jones would’ve done: 1. Trade up in order to be in position to draft Leodis McKelvin from Troy. He’s the best [...]

All good things must come to and end, and the Cowboys finally ended the day after accomplishing some goals and raising a couple of questions. Overall, the Cowboys had a great draft and walk away with a boatload of talent highlighted by first round picks Felix Jones – RB and Mike Jenkins – CB. Here is a recap of the weekend’s haul with ESPN analisys and mine as well… 2008 Draft Selections  1. Felix Jones (RB) [...]

Hey guys, whats up? I am going to go on a little rant here so please bear with me. First thing I want to talk about is the whole two sided argument of why taking Felix Jones at 22 and not Rashard Mendenhall is the better fit and why it isn’t. First, let me say that I would of taken Mendenhall without even blinking an eye. Many draft boards had this guy in the top [...]

Hi everyone and welcome to our live draft coverage. We will be updating this thread all day long and invite you to comment throughout the day on this live thread. As my colleagues Fred and Marvin already did… let me go out on a limb and add my own predictions for today’s Cowboys draft. I believe the Cowboys will definitely take a couple of offensive players in the first round barring any last minute trade. [...]

The Dallas Cowboys and Pacman Jones have agreed on a 4-year contract that will now ensure his spot on the team as soon as he is reinstated. The contract will have annual bonuses and also includes a clause that will give Pacman an advance of his salary as soon as his reinstatement becomes official. This is not a signing bonus as that would have certainly raised some eyebrows, so instead they came up with a [...]

A source has informed me that it has been reported on the Randy Galloway Show, Dallas ESPN Radio that Pacman Jones is a Dallas Cowboy. Dallas paid a 4th round draft pick in this year’s draft for Pacman. If he is not reinstated by the commissioner we get their 4th round next year. This is all I have for now, more to follow as soon as we get it.

Talk of getting Chad Johnson (from Cincinnati) in Dallas is increasing by the hour. It’s all I heard about on the radio during my morning commute. I’m all for it. But should I be? Let’s hear what Lonestarstruck readers have to say.  Talk to me!  *** Added by Lone Star Struck: For those of you who aren’t familiar with Johnson here are some stats from his entry on wikipedia.com.  Chad Johnson holds the following records in the Bengals [...]

All the wild speculation has worn me out and I’m glad we will finaly have some clarity and closure on the issue. The way I see it the Cowboys are in a great position and I’m sure when all is said and done, Cowboys fans will embrace our new young stars and look ahead to whats bound [...]
