Rashan Gary took a pay cut as part of his trade to Dallas, the Cowboys are out on Patrick Queen, and an ex-Cowboy rakes in huge bonus money.
For Cowboys fans who were lukewarm on the Rashan Gary trade, there is perhaps a silver (or at least green) lining.

He got a $13. 2 million signing bonus- fully guaranteed- to offset the discount. Meanwhile, the Cobie Durant signing will help the Cowboys' CB room in ways you might not have realized, and while you may not know Otito Ogbonnia by name just yet, the new defensive tackle is looking to get onto your radar, even at a position overshadowed by marquee names.
And the search for linebacker help continues as the Cowboys have officially pulled out of their initial interest in former Steeler Patrick Queen.
