Be badly in need of help, add two forward defensive in Dallas cowboys





Dallas Cowboys is about a week to camp, and the damage has been done the line. The greatest harm, cowboy had to absorb during training camp so far is the second choice defense DeMarcus Lawrence, who will miss eight to 12 weeks because of a foot injury. Cowboy no defense, McLean Terrell point out Amobi Okoye, and Ben Bass, defensive end Anthony Spencer. On Friday, the Cowboys added defensive linemen Kenneth Boatright andAdewale Ojomo to the mix. To make room for the new defenders the team plans to cut ties with offensive tackle Darius Morris and wide receiver L’Damian Washington, although the moves haven’t been made official. The Seattle Seahawks signed Boatright as an undrafted rookie free agent in 2013 out of Southern Illinois. He was cut earlier this year and has never played in a regular season game The New York Giants signed Ojomo as an undrafted rookie free agent in 2012 out of Miami; he played in one game that season. Ojomo was cut in 2013 and spent some time with the Seahawks, the Buffalo Bills and the Tennessee Titans. Released in March, Giant Ojomo suspected was arrested for a plainclothes police, to provide $100 in action. I don't think these guys can make the list of 53 - man, and can't see these measures than cowboys just need a warm body through training camp.

NFL News - Williams will be entering his 12th season in the NFL



The Seattle Seahawks have added another big body to their defensive line after agreeing to terms with free agent Kevin Williams.

The Seahawks reached the agreement with Williams on Thursday as the team wrapped up its organized team activities. The Seahawks still have their mandatory three-day minicamp beginning Tuesday.

Williams will be entering his 12th season in the NFL, having spent his entire career until now with the Minnesota Vikings. Williams started 15 games last season for the Vikings with 3 1/2 sacks and an interception.

Seattle found success last season with a deep rotation along the defensive line, an area that took a hit during free agency following the Seahawks' Super Bowl title.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have signed first-round draft pick Mike Evans.

The 6-foot-5, 231-pound receiver from Texas A&M was the seventh overall pick in the draft and is expected to move into the starting lineup for an offense that ranked last in the NFL in yards gained last season.

Evans was Johnny Manziel favorite target in college, finishing with 151 receptions for 2,499 yards and 17 touchdowns in 26 games. He notched the two highest single-game receiving performances in Texas A&M history with a 287-yard outing against Auburn and 279-yard day against Alabama.

The Bucs announced the signing Thursday, the final day of the team's mandatory minicamp. Evans attended the workouts, but did not participate in drills because of a hamstring strain.
