Per Schefter Twitter: Skins Sign DE Stephen Bowen 5 Yrs 27.5 Mill 12.5 Guaranteed

Pretty much universal agreement from many sources that hold no favor towards the Skins (mosely, williamson, PFF, etc.) that this was a great signing.

And pretty much universal anger on the part of the team that lost him.

Two excellent signs.

I couldn't agree more. The 'Boys are pissed that they lost him.

Apparently, Jenkins' asking price was too high.

I wouldn't be surprised. a player of his level coming off a super bowl victory isn't gonna be cheap on the open market. As I understand it, even Daryn Colledge, who I think is a decent-but-not-great guard, is getting a pretty big pay-day from the Cards (details have not been released as far as I am aware, but his agent was very happy about the deal saying it was everything they wanted, so I'm sure the Cards overpaid a good deal).

Now if only we can get that kind of interest in Barnett...

edit: looks like $27.5 mil over 5 years, $10 mil guaranteed

If you google him, the first couple of links is for a 47 year old astronaut.

Based on the fact his numbers are underwhelming in every sense. I personally would give money to a proven commodity and this sounds like a signing based on potential. It's a lot of dough for someone who hasn't done squat.

Word is that he did his job well, which was to eat up blockers and allow those around him to make plays. He's a stout player designed to play end in the 3-4. DTs and 3-4 ends will never look good in the stat sheet, but they often make a big difference with defensive rankings.

check what sites like profootballfocus have to say about the guy, rather than looking at some #'s. also, see what those who follow the cowboys have to say about him.

sounds like we got a very good player entering his prime.

Uh yeah I'll stick to what I said. Where's the beef I'm missing? 44tackles and 6 sacks in 5 years????

I know a guy is often more than his stats, but it's a reach to say he deserved 12 mil guaranteed. Just b/c I don't like what we paid him doesn't mean I hope he fails on the contrary. Now please go ahead and show me quotes about peoples opinions of him, it won't change the FACT he hasn't done much in terms of production.

My good buddy is a huge (and knowledgable) Cowboy fan. When I told him that Cowboys may have jumped into fray with Skins for Jenkins, he said, "I'd much rather re-sign Bowen, rather than chase Jenkins. Bowen is gonna be a good one."

He's very unhappy right now.

So, there you have it.

You're arguing about black in a sea of color. It's not about stats for linemen like this, his personal numbers and stats don't matter because the others around him are getting most of the stats and numbers. Why don't you go do the research yourself about quotes and opinions about people who have been watching the Cowboys and watching him specifically?

Bowen's role is not about his numbers.

A better view of how he played is how the fans of the team feel about him and feel about his loss. Has anyone seen anything out of Dallas to suggest they didn't really like this guy? Was Ware more or less productive when rushing on the same side as Bowen? There are a lot of things a 3-4 end has to do that do not include generating huge tackle/sack numbers. He did have 4 stuffs last year, which shows some ability to penetrate. Honestly, I'm not saying Bowen is a great signing. But, by all accounts, he's a singing that appears to have room to GROW as a player who has not yet reached his full productivity and ability. If this is so, it's probably a good thing.

this is correct. like O linemen, you really cant look at a set of #'s to determine how they play. the best way to know is by listening to those who've watched him.

Guys I'm not some hater and am fully aware if the role of 3/4 ends. I'm encouraged that people feel we got a solid contributor. IMO you don't pay solid contributors 12 guaranteed. Let's hope for the best but I'm just amazed at the homers that come out in defense of a pick that can easily be argued against. If that's the market for serviceable solid ends who haven't done much yet than fine. But we overpaid on this! I think it's clear. I love the Chester,Wilson,cofield,gaffney,rocca, delas this one just has me hoping it wasn't a mistake.
