The Dallas Cowboys have released center Phil Costa

[mintor]

Costa's agent, George Mavrikes, said Friday his client would look to compete for a starting job elsewhere after rookie first-round pick Travis Frederick started all 16 games last year. Costa was the starter in 2011.

The Costa move saves the Cowboys $1.5 million on the salary cap. They were slightly less than $1 million over the cap after restructuring the contracts of quarterback Tony Romo, linebacker Sean Lee and cornerback Orlando Scandrick earlier this week.

[John Waylon]

Hm. This could be interesting. He may be a legitimate option here. 

[COLTS449]

Jonathan Goodwin would be a much better pick up than Costa.

[Hamster360]

So we got about 16M in cap space. 2M$ for Costa- 9M$ for Byrd-5M$ left. Could be an idea. I Honestly think We're only missing a C and FS now. Costa would be a good short term stop gap. Let Holmes develop or draft next year in the first round. 

[chad72]

He's a free agent.

I would not mind getting him to bolster our pass rush, even if it's a 1 yr deal like Seahawks did with Bennett

[Bravo]

We can draft players... Remember that guys

[HarassedOffTheSite]

This isn't the Cowboys or Free Agent forum....therefore, wrong forum.

Tells us In my opinion that were looking to get a Center. Im willing to bet our next signing will be a Center.

[Coffeedrinker]

From what I've seen of Costa he is like Satele, only without the quickness.
