I’ve heard players say they don't participate much in contract talks, that they don't have much say in it. But if they want to stay with the team they’re on and be successful, why don't they get more involved and really work to get the best deal for not only them but one that can help a team build a winner?

But if they want to stay with the team they’re on and be successful, why don't they get more involved and really work to get the best deal for not only them but one that can help a team build a winner?

Mailbag: Is there a second-round curse?

With the release of Trevon Diggs, it made me wonder about the second-round picks the Cowboys have drafted since the turn of the century. Few have accomplished what you’d expect from a second rounder. Why is that? Do the Cowboys have a second-round curse?

Darren Woodson: Hall of Fame snub 'not gonna break me'

A finalist for the fourth straight year, Darren Woodson is now getting used to coming this close to the doorstep of the football immortality, but not getting his name called … again.
Witten, Woodson come up short for Hall of Fame Jason Witten’s time as a Hall of Famer will have to wait. For Darren Woodson, his wait must continue. Neither the Cowboys’ all-time leading receiver, or the team’s all-time leading tackler were selected for the latest class for the Pro Football Hall of Fame. The news was announced Thursday night at the NFL Honors show. Witten and Woodson were not included in the five-person class, that featured first-ballot inductees Drew Brees and Larry Fitzgerald. The rest of the 2026 Hall of Fame class included Adam Vinatieri, Luke Kuechly and Roger Craig.

Mailbag: Has Pro Bowl honor been cheapened?

Hasn’t the achievement of making the Pro Bowl been cheapened? Shouldn’t how many Pro Bowls a player has been named to be eliminated from contract talks or used to enhance their argument for enshrinement in the Hall of Fame? Agree, or am I missing something?

Mailbag: Does offense need 2 elite WRs?

Without a great WR2, Seattle's combo was successful enough to have one of the best offenses in the NFL and reach the NFC Championship Game. Don't you think the Cowboys could be in the same situation without spending big on George Pickens and use that money instead to improve the defense?

What's Next? Scary combo of DT talent & depth

This roster has plenty of positions in need of key players. Defensive tackle is not one of them and because of last year’s trades, the interior defensive line has a rare mix of both talent and depth.

Mailbag: Are defensive substitutions a problem?

How do you keep communication, availability and knowledge a constant? I realize the value of rotating for freshness or subbing for injury, but how does consistency happen when players only play 20-25% of the snaps?
