First, the Dallas C’girlz made it a point to say that they were going to make a big splash in free agency.
During combine, owner Jerry Jones predicted next season’s roster could feature 10 or more new players and talked about current players competing for playing time. Changes will come through free agency, draft or players already in organizations.
Then free agency started, and the ‘Girlz did a sit-by-the-phone bit while big-name free agents signed with other teams.
Now it doesn’t seem to be that much of a concern for Owner Jethro (hat tip once again to the Startlegram’s Gil LeBreton).
No one is better than Jerry Jones at providing a Jerry Jones-ism to describe the Cowboys’ approach thus far in the NFL’s uncapped year.
“There’s no angst about getting anxious here,” the Cowboys owner said. “We’re just watching it unfold.”
“We’re pleased with what we have in place with the Dallas Cowboys,” Jones said, “but if you look at our past several years, we’ve never jumped right out there in free agency.
“The last several years, we haven’t been big off the bat right out front.
Yeah, well – the last several years, the C’girls also haven’t been major players on the field – particularly so during, y’know Jerry, the playoffs.
I could  be wrong here, but I’d venture to guess there’s something of a correlation.  Particularly for a team that hasn’t been accused of drafting that well since Jimmy left.
Now, the Cowboys may – at some point – get to play the Super Bowl when it’s Arlington’s turn to host it.
Based on what I’ve seen so far, though, I’d say it won’t be this year.
