Which RB is leaving the Cowboys backfield? Empty Which RB is leaving the Cowboys backfield?

The Cowboys already have a fairly crowded backfield and drafted DeMarco Murray in the 3rd round of this year’s draft so surely this means one of Jones, Barber or Choice is going to be leaving the Cowboys? I know there's more to such a decision then just stats, so if anyone has any sort of figures for their wages it could help, but without such information at hand who would you choose to get rid of, and why?

Stats from the 2010 season
----------------------Rushing-----------------Receiving
---------------Carries Yards YPC TD-----Receptions Yards YPR TD
Marion Barber -- 113 ---374--3.3--4 --------11 ----- 49 -- 4.5 - 0
Tashard Choice -66 ---243--3.7--3 -------- 17 ----- 109 --6.4 - 0
Felix Jones -----185 ---800--4.3--1 --------48 ----- 450--9.4 - 1

I'm pretty sure Marion Barber will be the one to leave.

Barber's a goner, Choice wouldn't surprise me either.

Cowboys backfield is a mess at the minute
Barber certain to leave & Choice possibly as well
that leaves Felix who isn't a workhorse everydown back
Havn't seen the rookie so can't comment on him

If the rookie works out then Barber is gone. Barber is Mr 1st Down for them on 3rd and short, but would be an expensive luxury with a good rookie and Jones on the roster. I don't think Choice offers enough upside to stay on if they find someone better for 3rd string.

Of course as a Skins fan, I hope they make the wrong decision and keep the bad guys. Smile

Barber is gone, never really played consistently enough but a beast at times, remember his 2 yard run against the Patriots

The Barbarian will be gone he was a good RB in his prime but he took on 1 too many Linemen/Linebackers.

Some thing I have found on the football guys web site

The Dallas Cowboys have not asked RB Marion Barber III to take a pay cut this offseason but there is a possibility the team could ask after the lockout is over.

[ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ OUR VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ]

With the addition of rookie RB DeMarco Murray the team holds the upper hand with Barber. We think they could move on without him this year if he doesn't choose to take a pay cut
