If the Cowboys are “America’s Team,” then CowboysLocker.com is America’s Blog for America’s Team. It’s non-stop Dallas Cowboys coverage, every day of the NFL season. Want to know who Tony Romo’s going with now? We’re right on top of it. How ’bout them Cowboys!
The Cowboys have released Marco Rivera. He played in all 16 games for the Cowboys last season despite playing with a bad back and he did a good job for them. The Cowboys wanted to go younger at the position and save a little bit of cap space so the move makes some sense.
Doug Free was a good pick for the Dallas Cowboys. He could turn into a future starter for the Boys’ if he gets a little bit stronger and develops a mean streak as he has a reputation for being soft despite being 6′6″, 306 pounds. Still, Free was a 4-year starter at Northern Illinois as he started all 49 games that the Huskies played while he was in college. Look for him to be a reserve this season and a starter in the future.
