Bell ringing in Dallas?

Colleague Matt Mosley is driving right now and can't type. But he just called me with a tip from one of his Cowboys sources. Dallas suddenly is showing interest in running back Tatum Bell.

He's not the biggest name out there, only rushing for 182 yards with Detroit last season. But Bell, who was begging for a trade out of Detroit midway through last season, could be a nice fit as a backup running back. He was a 1,000-yard rusher for Denver in 2006. He's also a Dallas native and, at 26, he still has fresh legs.

Sounds like a decent move if they make it happen. I assume we're not going to give up much of anything for him, and hed be a decent backup.

What would "not much" be? a 5th? a 4th? He is only about 700K against the cap for det, but may be further complicated by original trade from Den to Det.

How about Dunn?

Dunn: 'I Stay Still Play'

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution - Warrick Dunn, recently released by the Falcons and already having had discussions with the Buccaneers, still thinks he can be a force in the NFL, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

"I can still play this game," Dunn said. "This is tough. I'm not going to lie. I have a very strong base in Atlanta, a strong following, a lot of friends that I built over six years. There are a lot of people in the organization that I'm close to. They're family to me and it's hard to leave family." [READ]
