With that extension the Cowboys have their OL set for the next several years and most likely Zack Martin will be next to see an extension.

Tyron Smith - Expires 2023

La'el Collins- Expires 2019(RFA in 2018)

Travis Frederick - Expires 2023

Zack Martin - Expires 2018

Doug Free - Expires 2018(He'll be 34 but Dallas took Chaz Green in 3rd Round of 2015 as potential replacement)

I was just scrolling through Rotoworld and saw his name next to an Eagles symbol and thought it was an error, then scrolled down some more without reading the blurb and finally saw he was traded. I'm honestly pretty shocked. I would've traded Hurst for him in a heartbeat lol

Yeah but that would imply Titans actually wanted Hurst.

Lol. No surprise to me. I hope people keep drafting him in fantasy.  He's a total bust.

It's a mental issue with him, apparently. He's got all the physical talents in the world to just flat out dominate.

From what I hear he just has a horrible football IQ. He could not figure out where to line up last year and apparently has not improved.

His coach also said he's pretty lazy.

Teachable though. You can be dumb and still ball. Look at Dez Bryant

Combine that with the laziness referenced above and you have this guy that's on his way out of the league.

He might be worth a look as a backup, he has tons of concussion issues though.

He's a trouble maker, too. Might be related to concussion problems.

In a major update.... Stork has NOT been released but TRADED to the Washington Redskins for a conditional 7th round pick. Though there are reports going around that Stork may retire instead, this does make it more interesting why the Redskins traded for him if he was just going to retire.

Browns traded Mingo to NE for a 5th round pick next year:

Not so sure that Mingo will do much for the Pats. He didn't do anything in CLE. Knowing NE though, he will beast out for them

Well, unless I'm mistaken, NE plays in a 4-3 and the biggest issue surrounding Mingo has been that he's so small and can't handle being an on ball tackle. In NE, he'll be off the ball as a 4-3 OLB, which should bode much better for him.

Also, BB is one of the greatest defensive minds in the game, so probably no surprise if he does well.

For the right price I'd bring him back as a situational pass-rushing specialist.  He did well when he was here in that role, and he did okay in Cleveland when there was someone there taking the pressure off of him.  Plus I thought Pees got the best out of him in 2012.
