Restricted free agent Marion Barber and franchised safety Ken Hamlin are working out away from the team as contract negotiations continue. It's unlikely either will be present for the start of organized team activities (OTAs) next week, but Jones remains confident deals will get done before training camp.

Marion Barber missing the OTAs? Its time to cut him, I dont want a player like that on a Superbowl ready team. Lets get Felix the Cat ready for full time duty

No major issue, the deal will get done!

Wow, three Cowboy related threads. See, America's team. It's who everyone wants to talk about.

Actually Hooah all it does is provide a wider platform for more HATE!

Cut him? Dude, lighten up. At least let's see what he does this year as a starter. Jones isn't ready to start.

May 15, 2008  08:54 AM ET

Hooah, you should know by now to take my posts with grain of salt

May 15, 2008  08:55 AM ET

Oh, sorry. Missed the sarcasm. Put an asterick on them when it's sarcasm. I'm slow this morning.

I really think sometimes there are far too many off-season events...let these guys take some time off, and when training camp starts, it STARTS. As in you come to work every day, whether it's in the weight room, practice field, film room, or whatever. All it does is give the media more opportunitiy to say "OMGZ MARION BARBER MISSED TEH OPTIONAL WORKOUTZ!!1"

Jeeze!

3 Positive threads from Americas team, One is breaking up with his girlfriend, one afraid he's gonna get cut because he can't cover anyone, and one hold out.

Go Americas Team!!!!

Pull your skirt down, your hate is showing!

May 15, 2008  11:35 AM ET

Jones will sign him, this is the business side of football; he know he better get it done for at least three years on Barber and Hamlin. These are two critical portions of the pie

May 15, 2008  12:52 PM ET

Jeez with PacMan Jones on board I thought "OTA" meant "out touching ass" !!!

Hey Hooah...who's that in your avatar? Very nice, wish I could see an enlarged version... :)

May 15, 2008  04:24 PM ET

Yep, in case you were wondering, that's exactly how much I care about the goings-on at Valley Ranch...

May 15, 2008  05:50 PM ET

I said it before, and I'll say it again:Let The Zorn Era Begin!!!

It's gonna be a scary ride.

I say trade him. Why pay a guy starting running back money when he has been a 3rd down/red zone back his entire career?
