I really don't know what you've been watching in that case. Murray looked rough week 1 but he had a whole 3 days of unpadded practice leading into that game. He's looked better and better each week. Super explosive? No. But that's not his game. He gets downhill. That's his job.
Freeman on the other hand? I've seen nothing so far. One long run through a hole that every single RB in the NFL would hit. Otherwise, it's been bad. And the fact that people can see that in 4 touches says a lot. That's all he's gotten and it's for good reason.

Hard to say. It's hard to gauge what teams will pay for players mid-season. Given he had a $10M AAV contract, though was underperforming, I would imagine it would cost maybe $2-3M for somebody to sign him the rest of the year.
I don't really see the Ravens having interest though. He's a 31 year old LB who's best days are clearly behind him, and I think the Ravens would want to get younger and faster at the position.
Murray had the 7th fewest broken tackles last year. Only 4% of his runs.

In other words, this is what we signed up for. Hopefully Bell has something left in the tank
correct, he has very little leg drive, unlike Gus who was one of the tops in breaking tackles in the league. Both he and Dobbins were near the top.
also he's had the tires kicked on him by multiple teams this offseason/season and no one's decided he was worth it

that’s how depleted we are at tackle for me to ponder it haha

He can play a 3-4 ILB role right? Him and Queen in the middle with a healthy defensive line sounds terrifying to opposing offenses. Unless I'm missing something here, why the sudden release? Is something about to come out about him or is it just because Parsons is balling right now?

Was notorious for lack of effort.

That’s my feeling. Wouldn’t be surprised if there’s new news coming out of legal troubles or something.
if it’s just a straight out cut however, I read his salary for next year is fully guaranteed if he somehow gets hurt this year. So Cowboys probably didn’t want to risk playing him this year and he claims injury, knowing they would like to cut him anyways. Makes sense
Both queen and smith are playing like trash

You planning to participate in fantasy this year?

no? I haven’t watch Cowboys too much, but according to a lot of cowboy fans.. he’s been playing well this year. It’s strictly because of the injury risk for next years salary. 9.2 million risk if they kept playing him and he claims injury.

They’re cutting him because he sucks - with the talk this offseason I thought they’d cut him before the season tbh - he just played maybe his worst game so far too and my guess is enough was enough
