Cowboys likely to miss OTAs

Posted: Thursday May 15, 2008 07:55AM ET

Restricted free agent Marion Barber and franchised safety Ken Hamlin are working out away from the team as contract negotiations continue. It's unlikely either will be present for the start of organized team activities (OTAs) next week, but Jones remains confident deals will get done before training camp.

Cut him? Dude, lighten up. At least let's see what he does this year as a starter. Jones isn't ready to start.

Hooah, you should know by now to take my posts with grain of salt

Oh, sorry. Missed the sarcasm. Put an asterick on them when it's sarcasm. I'm slow this morning.

I really think sometimes there are far too many off-season events...let these guys take some time off, and when training camp starts, it STARTS. As in you come to work every day, whether it's in the weight room, practice field, film room, or whatever. All it does is give the media more opportunitiy to say "OMGZ MARION BARBER MISSED TEH OPTIONAL WORKOUTZ!!1"

Jeeze!

Pull your skirt down, your hate is showing!

Jones will sign him, this is the business side of football; he know he better get it done for at least three years on Barber and Hamlin. These are two critical portions of the pie

Jeez with PacMan Jones on board I thought "OTA" meant "out touching ****" !!!

Hey Hooah...who's that in your avatar? Very nice, wish I could see an enlarged version... :)

Yep, in case you were wondering, that's exactly how much I care about the goings-on at Valley Ranch...

I say trade him. Why pay a guy starting running back money when he has been a 3rd down/red zone back his entire career?
