Youth movement or is Jerry Jones broke?

Dallas cuts Andre Gurode to save more than 5 million dollars off the salary cap paving the way for a complete offensive line overhaul.  Most sports writers and fans completely buy into the Cowboys PR spin on the move, Gurode's release is due to Phil Costa's improvement and Coach Garrett's no non-sense approach to competition with veterans.

This could be true but I don't buy it.  Jerry Jones is broke, he wants to win but the bottom line is forcing his hand in this one. The new stadium isn't paying as well as he hoped and no naming rights meeting his crazy demands means less funds coming his way.

Does it really matter the reason for the veteran overhaul?  I say yes, means that Jerry Jones is still running the show in Dallas, Jason Garrett may get more input since Bill Parcells but doesn't change the fact that Jones is still pulling the strings.

Do you really think Coach Garrett would cut a solid starting offensive lineman that already is going to have two rookies starting on it? Even if the backup Costa had shown enough to win the starting job, a knee injury puts his availability for the season opener in question. Not to mention the opener is against Rex Ryan and the Jets complex blitzing scheme. Should we even consider the fact that for Dallas to be competitive early on in the season, this offense is going to have to put at least 25 points on the board per game. Anyone feel comfortable with a running game that failed repeatedly in short-yardage and redzone with now Felix Jones as the main guy.

Bottom line is this, I don't think Garrett would make this move when the best part of his team is built around a solid passing offense and jeopardize it shaking up the offensive line. This was all Jerry Jones just like it always has been.
