Free Agent Targets: Pass Rushers

Need 3-4 pass rushers
1. Mario Williams - He has less than a season of experience as a 3-4 OLB but he's a top pass rusher. He will also command franchise player money coming off an injury projecting to a position he has limited snaps in.
2. John Abraham - Aging player but couldn't tell from his on field production, 9.5 sacks a season ago and projects as a situational pass rusher to keep fresh. Its going to take a 2-year deal commanding 3-4 million a season, pass rushers are always valued in the NFL.
3. Mark Anderson - Former Chicago Bear and came on strong for the Patriots last year as a pass rusher notching 10 sacks. He would be more affordable than John Abraham as a situational pass rusher in either a 4-3 or 3-4 front.

Dallas franchised Anthony Spencer but that should not stop any effort to upgrade their ability to rush the passer within financial reason. That rules out Mario but do not ever count out Jerry Jones on making a play on a star player at a premier position.

The smart plan is reach out to Mark Anderson and find out his asking price, if its within 2 million a year over a couple of seasons, I bring Anderson in here. I also select a pass rusher in the draft to bring out competition and honestly build up the market for a trade of Anthony Spencer prior to training camp.
