The Cowboys finalized a long-rumored agreement with safety Abram Elam on Wednesday night, according to Todd Archer of ESPNDallas.com.
Elam got an identical contract to Gerald Sensabaugh, who just re-signed with the team: One year, $2.5 million. The two veterans will battle for playing time, with Elam possibly having the edge because he played for Rob Ryan last year in Cleveland.
We criticized the Cowboys for keeping Terence Newman, but the Cowboys were wise not to give Michael Huff $8 million-per-year when comparable players were out there for cheap.
