Cowboys make roster moves

The Dallas Cowboys today agreed to terms with 16 free agents. Once they have passed their physicals and signed contracts, they will be able to work with the team this weekend at the club's mini-camp.

These players will join the rest of the squad for workouts beginning Friday morning at Valley Ranch. The mini-camp runs through Sunday.

Once these players are signed, the Cowboys will have 82 players on the roster (including restricted free agent Eric Bjornson and exclusive rights free agent Richie Cunningham but not including unrestricted free agents) with 71 players under contract. The NFL allows teams to have 80 players under contract when training camp opens in July.

These are the players who agreed to terms today:
