FRISCO - Jerry Jones, 81, in a season-ending team meeting here at The Star, mentioned to his Dallas Cowboys players facts about his personal mortality.

Peter King, the long-time NFL writer, is accusing the Cowboys owner of passivity and is wondering where's "the old Jerry?''

Bryan Broaddus, the former Cowboys scout turned media guy, is hinting at a "different approach'' on roster-building for the 2024 team.

Is something major about to change in the way Jerry's Cowboys do their business? 

McCarthy, Stephen, Jerry Jones

Color me skeptical; I believe all involved - Jerry, Stephen, personnel boss Will McClay and coach Mike McCarthy - are convinced they've built a winning foundation.

I believe that while some scoffed when McCarthy gave his "Buy Into Us!'' presentation and said Dallas is "a championship program, we just haven't won a world championship (yet),'' those aforementioned other three powerbrokers nodded their head in agreement.

But Broaddus writes, "There are some in the building that say we might see a different approach when the league year starts.''

Does that mean spending in order to hit home runs in free agency? Does that mean "last-gasp'' attempts to sign big names? Does it mean those accusing Jerry of being "passive'' are about to be pacified?

Let's get specific with an example of what a 'New Philosophy' in NFL Free Agency might look like by digging into the Derrick Henry Idea. Check it our in the Fish Report and the FISH PODCAST here!
