The Dallas Cowboys are playing the QB market to their advantage with how the Tony Romo situation is playing out. Ramifications are being felt around the league, whether other teams want to admit it or not.
The Cowboys' patient manipulation of what remains of the NFL quarterback market has put Romo in a bizarre status and has left a host of big-name Opening Day starters from last season — Jay Cutler, Ryan Fitzpatrick and Robert Griffin III — to wait helplessly for the dust to settle.
Nothing is going to happen quickly unless Jerry Jones and Tony Romo want it to.
NFL officials given more leeway on 'Brice Butler rule' - Kevin Boilard, CBS News
It is a little bit too late for the liking of Cowboys fans, but the NFL has decided to allow a little more leeway on the rule regarding "Illegally entering the huddle". Brice Butler received an ill-timed unsportsmanlike conduct call for this 'offense' during last season's playoff game against the Green Bay Packers.
The rule is designed to prevent the offense from unfairly deceiving the defense with odd mixes of personnel in the huddle. It did not seem as though this was Butler's intention against the Packers last year, as his attention was turned to the sideline the whole time and the Cowboys didn't form a distinct huddle before he exited the field.
It appears that the league is going to allow the officials to use common sense in the decision about enforcing the rule or giving a warning to the team.
Now if they can just figure out what a catch looks like.
Star Evaluation: After Stellar Rookie Year, Brown Big Part of 2017 CB Plans - Nick Eatman, DallasCowboys.com
Anthony Brown made a splash in Dallas in 2016 and his impact has some bearing on the strategy the front office took with the defensive backs who were eligible for free agency this offseason.
With Brown, the Cowboys loved his speed that was clocked as a high as 4.29. But there's no way they knew Brown would become a reliable corner on defense that not only used his speed, but was a tough tackler not afraid to mix it up in the run game. Brown not only served as the Cowboys' third corner for most of the season, but he ranked fourth among defensive players in total snaps.
To say they were impressed with the performance of the sixth round selection is an understatement. Now the team will look for him to progress during his sophomore season as he moves into a bigger role in the defense. If Brown continues to develop, don't be shocked to see him move into a starting role at some point this fall.
Dallas Cowboys Draft 2017: The Strategy Is Likely A Secondary Overhaul - Michael Sisemore, Blogging The Boys
It may be a case of need meeting opportunity, or maybe this has been in the mind of the front office for a while, but the move to revamp the secondary looks a lot like some similar strategy used with the offensive line a few seasons back. Dallas is going for a full overhaul.
The reality is that Carr had one interception in the past three seasons. Claiborne had four for his career which is not what you expect from a sixth-overall pick. Barry Church cost too much and Dallas didn't seem interested at all in keeping Wilcox. Consider that the deals that Claiborne and Carr signed with their new teams weren't overly expensive and you can say that the Cowboys weren't too bothered by letting them go. They've wanted to upgrade their secondary for a while and now they get that opportunity.
My BTB colleague hits the nail on the head with this one, or at least he is following my line of thought and beat me to putting the story together.
VIDEO: Scandrick defends Cowboys fans, Elliot [sic] to Stephen A. - ESPN
The worldwide leader doesn't know how to spell Elliott. Regardless, this one is for you, Cowboys fans. Cornerback Orlando Scandrick took a stand to support the fanbase on ESPN. Stephen A. might find us delusional and obnoxious, but Orlando was more than happy to set him straight.
It is nice to see the love returned, and also to see one of the Cowboys leaders handle the situation with class.
I'd be surprised if Jaylon Smith is ready to go; Church will be missed in big way - Matt Mosley, Dallas Morning News
Mosley hit on a variety of topics posed by fans in this piece, including the possibility of drafting another offensive lineman in the opening round to fill Doug Free's cleats. His answers are sure to give us plenty of food for thought. Here's his titular take on Jaylon Smith.
And to your point about taking players with risks, we'll see where Jaylon Smith is this season. I just don't quite have the optimism about him that others do. The Cowboys medical folks have been very cautious in talking about him. Dr. Jones seems to think he'll be fine. He was a tremendous player at Notre Dame. He's the x-factor coming into this season. I'd be surprised if he's ready to go.
Charles Barkley on Zeke Elliott: 'This Fool Down Here in Dallas' - Newy Scruggs, NBCDFW
Charles Barkley is not one to hide his feelings, and he expresses himself in a matter of fact way. I was never a fan of his game, but I do like the man's style and the way he sums up the latest antics by the Cowboys running back match exactly what I would say to Zeke if he was my son.
Barkley told the Jim Rome Show, "This fool down here in Dallas…man, you know this kids is so great at football. He already has this domestic thing at Ohio State. Now he's pulling down girls shirts at Mardi Gras. Dude-this is professional football. This ain't Ohio State. Grow up and be a man. It just drives me crazy when I see some of this stuff these kids do."

I am not the typical red-blooded football fan, but that certainly does not mean that I don't realize that a majority of the BTB readership will enjoy this video clip from the mothership.
I am certain that this one will make your Friday a little more enjoyable.

Some of that is just by Friday I'm frantically trying to complete all my client deliverables before the weekend. The rest of it is by Friday I'm just tired. Today had the added complication of watching the Trumpcare debate and following how (and how soon) it would affect my company if it passed.
That's been a bit distracting, along with the other stuff I posted about yesterday. I wish everyone a great weekend.

All times are Eastern.
Midwest RegionalCBS will air both games with Kevin Harlan (play-by-play), Reggie Miller and Dan Bonner (commentary), and Dana Jacobson (reporting) on the call.
No. 7 Michigan Wolverines (26-11)* vs. No. 3 Oregon Ducks (31-5), 7:09 p.m.No. 4 Purdue Boilermakers (27-7) vs. No. 1 Kansas Jayhawks (30-4), approx. 9:39 p.m.
Once again, Michigan finds itself in one of the most attractive matchups of a 2017 NCAA Tournament round, as there should be plenty of points when the Wolverines take on the potent Ducks. The nightcap pairs two balanced squads in Kansas and Purdue, along with two national player of the year candidates — the Jayhawks' point guard Frank Mason and Boilermaker forward Caleb Swanigan. KU should have a sizable advantage, however, as they'll be playing in their de facto secondary home arena in Kansas City.
West RegionalTBS will air both games with Brian Anderson (play-by-play), Chris Webber (commentary), and Lewis Johnson (reporting) on the call.
No. 4 West Virginia Mountaineers (28-8) vs. No. 1 Gonzaga Bulldogs (34-1)*, 7:39 p.m.No. 11 Xavier Musketeers (23-13) vs. No. 2 Arizona Wildcats (32-4)*, approx. 10:09 p.m.
While you'd expect Gonzaga to struggle a bit against West Virginia's pressing defense, the Bulldogs have recent success against the Mountaineers. The Bulldogs won a pair of early season meetings with Bob Huggins' squad in 2012-13 and 2013-14, so Mark Few knows how to prepare for the matchup. The second game in San José sees Sean Miller meet his former program at this stage for the second time in three years. Back in 2015, Arizona defeated Xavier by eight, 68-60, at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. It wouldn't surprise me if the Wildcats ended the Musketeers' surprising run by a similar score tonight.
