The Commanders brain trust needs to get to the heart of the matter about the needs of this team in FA. What I think we need most now is a leader for the defense. That's why Bobby Wagner should be our "must get" target in FA. He would elevate our defense and our entire team. Remember how much London Fletcher did for us and consider that Wagner is an even better player than Fletcher was.
Now, I imagine that Wagner doesn't particularly want to come here. So, we need to offer him significantly more money than any other team. Take your best shot, RR!
Edit: From Cowboy Country website 3/14/22: FRISCO - The Dallas Cowboys are involved in what a source terms "exploratory'' talks with just-cut Seattle Seahawks franchise icon linebacker Bobby Wagner.
Wagner, who will be 32 in June, has a connection with Dallas defensive coordinator Dan Quinn, who once held the same role in Seattle. And Quinn, we're told, would be central to Wagner's decision to come to the Cowboys for less money than he might get elsewhere.
Don't let this happen!
