    The Dallas Cowboys are expected to add veteran offensive tackle Demetress Bell to fill one of four open spots on the team’s 90-man roster.

    Todd Archer of ESPN Dallas reports that Bell is expected to join the mix as a potential swing tackle. The team had been in talks with him after the Philadelphia Eagles cut him in a cap move in February as it was uncertain how the Doug Free situation would play out.

    Bell joined the Eagles last year after Jason Peters was lost to injury, signing a $35 million, five-year contract. He started only five games but has ample starting experience from his days with the Buffalo Bills. Bell can be a credible backup on both sides of the line.

    I hope they do sign him for the Eagles sake.

    I'm sure he isn't good but with Free/Parnell manning the right side already, it probably can't get much worse, just sayin

    Supposedly he played well for the Bills, so he may bounce back. He was extremely disappointing for us last year.

    That seems to be the case with a lot of players that come from other teams to play for us

    Hopefully that changes with the new regime...but I doubt it.

    Been reading up on him at various places on the Web. Not impressed. He's a body. Not much else.
