Cowboys Say Tender Offer To DE Marcus Spears Doesn't Reflect Disappointment

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said the original-round tender received by Marcus Spears, which is worth $1.226 million next season and is less than second-round tenders given to backup defensive linemen Stephen Bowen and Jason Hatcher ($1.759 million each), is not an indication of any unhappiness with Spears. "Not really," Jones said. "Our motivation in how we did our free agency was strictly relative to what we thought we could handle as a club [rather than] anything to create any incentive or disincentive."

Spears got fucked by a loophole

Howev...........While he has been solid, he could have played himself to a level that commanded a 1st and 3rd

Of course they have to say that! they won't admit to his face that his tender reflect his performance otherwise they would have given him a higher tender. It's just common sense. JJ just likes to beat around the bush a little too much

Your actually wrong Y2Kbug. Dead wrong...

We have other priorities and to be honest his play hasn't warranted a higher tender. That's not to say he hasn't performed above expectations cause he has. It's just that we have other guys on the roster that are waiting for a shot and If somebody were to pick up Spears it wouldn't be the same as losing say a Mike Jenkins, Doug Free, or Anthony Spencer.

His tender is actually worth a first

Not saying they'll hang the phone up on a second rounder
