In a new Catch This Fade Morning Minute, we wonder what move will be made to create room for free agent safety Malik Hooker. While it’s more likely than not to be a player at the bottom of the roster, there are some reasons to consider whether it could be cornerback Anthony Brown who ends up being removed from the team in one way or another.
We discuss the financial ramifications of moving on from Brown, whether it be via trade or release and the overall look at the 90-man roster scenario facing the team currently. How do the ascensions of the dual rookies play into the decision-making process?
I'd imagine Hooker's deal is for more, but not too much more than min vet salary, but we'll see. Cowboys have ~$5M left in space and they'll + when some more expensive players are cut in favor of Day 3 picks & UDFAs.
ijs, there's a scenario Brown isn't a top 5 corner & saves $$
