Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones told the surrounding NFL world in July that his mentality might be changing — that saving future resources and starving present improvement might no longer apply.
With the echoes of so many empty “all-in” promises in our heads, many of us rolled our eyes.
Then came the trade for offensive tackle Broderick Jones in August. And last week, the acquisition of cornerback Joey Porter Jr. All told, the Cowboys unholstered four draft picks and fired — a second, third and two sixth-rounders — in exchange for Porter Jr., Jones and a fourth-rounder.
On Wednesday, Jones said the Cowboys still may not be done, noting that “the door is always open,” while speaking to Dallas’ flagship radio station 105.3 The Fan.
“I said at the start of training camp — I’m willing to put some things out there that are for today, lean more [toward] today than they would be three years from now,” Jones said.
