    The Dallas Cowboys could use a veteran safety and Michael Huff, an Irving native, is a free safety and a free agent to be. "That's home, but you never know what's going to happen," Huff said to Charean Williams of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram at the University of Texas' Pro Day. "I've got to want to go there, but they've got to want me. There are a bunch of things that go into the process." Huff was benched, booed and thought to be on the trading block before having the light come on in 2009. In 2010, he made 94 tackles and forced six turnovers and now, he's likely headed for free agency. "It's tough," Huff said. "In a normal year, I'd have a team by now. I'd know where I would be, so I could buy a house if I was going to be in another place. So it's definitely tough, but it's the business side of the thing. I have to be patient and wait it out." The one thing Huff is looking forward to is winning. The Raiders were 24-56 in Huff's five seasons. "That's the only thing," Huff said. "Being here [at Texas], you get spoiled. You win all the time here and then you go there and have some tough years. Getting that Super Bowl ring is something they can never take away from you, like they can't take away the national championship ring. That's the next step, and I look forward to it."

    Good luck. I don't trust a guy who's garbage his whole career until he blows up in a contract year.

    Why Im skeptical of him.

    However, ideally, he is just what we need at the position and would allow us to avoid wasting a pick on a weak FS class and allow us to develop AOA at CB

    Yeah if you can keep him playing like he did last year he'd be a real nice fit...but dude was a major liability back there for most of his career, did he actually turn the corner or does he just want to get paid?

    Im hoping not. On the positve side he did already get paid. He's been a franchice tag contract (one of the top 5 paid that gets averaged out to set the price of the franchise tag) since he came in to the league

    Paid again I should say. Im fully aware of how much he's been earning to do next to nothing.
