Stephen Jones, vice president of the Dallas Cowboys, reflects on the team's roster-building strategies following the hiring of new head coach Brian Schottenheimer. While the Cowboys have had a successful history with several NFC East titles, questions have arisen about the efficiency of their contract structures and player development. Stephen suggests the need for a thorough evaluation of their current methods, taking inspiration from the success of teams like the Denver Broncos and Philadelphia Eagles, indicating a potential shift in strategy to overcome their playoff challenges.
"You always have to evaluate yourself. When you're not having success you have to look at it," Stephen Jones said as the Cowboys reflect on their approach.
"There is a better way to operate within this rigid structure rather than, 'Well, we'd love to but we can't.'" This highlights a critical shift needed in team strategy.
"Assembling a payroll within the NFL's salary cap is not a grid of slot cars that all easily fit; fitting more than 53 multi-year contracts under a limit is a complicated puzzle."
"The success of the Denver Broncos, L.A. Rams and Philadelphia Eagles should motivate the Cowboys to do one of those 'deep dives' into how they build the roster."
