(SportsNetwork. http://www.shoptheofficialsteelers.com/Elite-Landry-Jones-Steelers-Jersey/ .com) - Adrian Peterson isnt even eligible to play football right now and he still remains the property of the Minnesota Vikings. But Jerry Jones has already started laying the groundwork for a possible homecoming for the Texas native. After a 12-win season that few saw coming, the usually lampooned Jones was selected as the 2014 NFL Executive of the Year by the Professional Football Writers of America earlier this week. Jones, Dallas owner, president and general manager, is obviously a guy who is fond of titles and he can now add another to the resume as the first Cowboys staffer to earn the award in its 21 years of existence. As a member of the PFWA, full disclosure forces me to admit that I didnt vote for Jones nor did I even consider him for the award and that was no oversight. Jones was honored for taking the Cowboys to the next level after three straight 8-8 seasons. To his credit, Dallas captured the clubs first NFC East title since 2009 and Jones made several successful personnel moves that helped the Boys reach the postseason. Drafting stud right guard Zack Martin was a brilliant decision and signing underrated defensive end Jeremy Mincey in free agency was rock solid, as was trading for talented linebacker Rolando McClain, who had been on the scrap heap after retiring on two different occasions. Think about those high-profile moves, though. Even if you give Jones credit for Mincey, he reportedly had to be restrained by his son on his way to taking Johnny Manziel instead of Martin during the draft, and the idea of swapping for the enigmatic McClain from Baltimore was born out of desperation only after Sean Lee went down with a torn ACL in the offseason. Circumstance and a bit of good fortune doesnt necessarily equate to a solid, well-thought-out plan being implemented and coming to fruition. Quite simply, Jones has never been a guy who makes prudent decisions on a consistent basis, at least dating back to his gin-fueled divorce with Jimmy Johnson. Consider that Jones went into the season with a lame-duck coaching staff, headed by head coach Jason Garrett and a plethora of veteran coaches like defensive coordinator Rod Marinelli, and offensive coordinator/offensive line coach Bill Callahan. After bowing out of the playoffs in the divisional round to Green Bay, Jones was able to keep his most of his staff in tact. But he had to overpay, and he did lose the architect of the teams true strength, its offensive line. Callahan, who was the OC in name only although he once actually was in charge of that side of the ball when Jones took the power away from Garrett, moved on to divisional-rival Washington, so Scott Linehan, the passing-game coordinator, could have the actual title (offensive coordinator) for the duties he performs. If this all sounds like the Cheers episode in which Sam Malone (Ted Danson) gives everyone titles to make them happy, you have no idea. Marinelli actually came to North Texas as the defensive line coach under defensive coordinator Monte Kiffin, who piloted one of the worst defenses in NFL history in 2013. So Jones gave Marinelli the DC nameplate but didnt fire Kiffin, bestowing on him the ceremonial title of assistant head coach/defense. The point of all this is that Jones is, to be kind, unpredictable, some might even say unhinged. And that brings us to the free agent front, where both superstars Dez Bryant and DeMarco Murray are eligible to test the waters with Jones only having the ability to place the franchise tag on one of them. Is it possible? Yes, Jones told the teams website this week when asked if both stars could be back in 2015. But if you just look at it from the standpoint of dollars and cents, it probably doesnt look reasonable. Bryant just completed his rookie deal with three straight seasons with 1,200 or more receiving yards and 12 or more touchdowns. In 2014, he led the NFL with 16 TDs through the air. Murray, on the other hand, just had a season for the ages, winning the NFL rushing title and setting a new single-season franchise recorded with 1,845 yards. He also touched the football a mind-numbing 449 times as Dallas literally ran him into the ground with the knowledge it would likely be moving on after the season. It just is going to depend, Jones said. What is the good news is, were in a lot better shape under the cap than weve been at any time over the last two or three years. So what does it depend on? Jones can say whatever he wants, but the reality is that the Cowboys reportedly offered Murray a startlingly low offer of just over $4 million a year, basically an invitation to walk out the door. Theres no timeframe, Jones continued. We could easily be visiting about that immediately with them. Because we have them under contract, we can talk to them anytime. So really the order of our day, weve got a lot of work to do on our roster. That work could lead Jones to Peterson, who is about to turn 30 and is owed $15.4 million next year. I think the elephant in the room is Adrian Peterson. If (Jones) feels like hes able to buy low on Adrian Peterson and hes reinstated, theyve got their eye on that situation, NFL insider Jason La Canfora said on CBS Radio. Its likely the former All-Pro is not going to be agreeable to any kind of restructured deal in Minnesota because he believes he was treated unfairly by both the league and the Vikings during his highly publicized child-abuse case in which he used a switch to discipline his son. That means the Vikings options are limited to paying Peterson, releasing him or convincing someone to trade for him, which would likely mean he agrees to a restructured deal in another city. Peterson is from Palestine, Texas, and has admitted in the past that he has often thought about playing for the Cowboys at some point during his career. Furthermore he and Jones have even developed a bit of a personal relationship over the years which have caused some to cry tampering. Dallas is about the only team Peterson would bend over backward for and agree to a restructure, an end game that would enable the Vikings to get some kind of a draft pick for the superstar and for Jones to get the apple of his eye. Whether thats the right move, however, is another matter. http://www.shoptheofficialsteelers.com/Elite-Ryan-Shazier-Steelers-Jersey/ .The moves on Tuesday were expected. The off-season signings of wing players Thabo Sefolosha and Kent Bazemore, combined with the addition of rookie centre Adreian Payne, left no openings on the roster. http://www.shoptheofficialsteelers.com/Elite-Cody-Wallace-Steelers-Jersey/ . Others agreeing to deals were pitcher Ryan Cook and outfielders Craig Gentry and Sam Fuld. Reddick appeared in just 109 games last season because of injuries and slugged 12 homers while driving in 54 runs and batting . SAN ANTONIO -- The San Antonio Spurs needed a pick me up after a disappointing loss and a series of injuries, and they got it Sunday night by stepping all over the Milwaukee Bucks. Patty Mills had 20 points, Tim Duncan had 11 points and 13 rebounds in limited action, and San Antonio rolled to a 110-82 victory over Milwaukee that kept the Bucks winless in the new year. Marco Belinelli scored 14 points, Jeff Ayres and Nando De Colo had 13 points apiece, and Kawhi Leonard added 11 points in 21 minutes for San Antonio. After hanging their heads following a 109-100 loss to the Portland Trail Blazers on Friday night, the Spurs were feeling pretty good after trouncing the Bucks. "(My confidence is) going through the roof, man" Ayres said. "You dont see me out there? Im having fun, dunking on people and stuff. Its awesome. Life is good." Even San Antonio coach Gregg Popovich was in a light-hearted mood, joking about the season debut of athletic, 6-foot-9 forward Malcolm Thomas. "I thought he was real active," Popovich said. "He blocked (two) shots. You know we dont block shots; thats not part of our program . thats a joke." The merriment came at the expense of adding to Milwaukees misery. The Bucks have lost nine straight, dropping those games by an average of 15 points. Making matters worse for Milwaukee, starting off guard Luke Ridnour left the game after spraining his right wrist late in the first quarter. The wrist bent back after it was sandwiched between Mills and Ekpe Udoh as Ridnour attempted to roll off a screen. He still attempted a 19-foot jumper, but feverishly signalled for a sub as he clutched his wrist in pain. "The X-rays were negative, which is a good sign," Bucks coach Larry Drew said. "Right now it looks like hes in a splint and I dont know how long he will be out." It swelled right away, as soon as he did it and that was a big concern. I guess well go back and I believe hell get an MRI." Brandon Knight scored 21 points, Giannis Antetokounmpo added 11 points and John Henson had 10 points and 11 rebounds for Milwaukee, which trailed by double digits the entire second half. San Antonio played without starters Tony Parker and Tiago Splitter, former starter Danny Green and 3-point specialist Matt Bonner. Parker missed the game with a bruised right shin that stiffened in the second half of the Spurs loss to the Trail Blazers. "We were missing a lot of guys so thatt was a little worrying, but overall I think we did a good job," San Antonio guard Manu Ginobili said. http://www.shoptheofficialsteelers.com/Elite-Ryan-Harris-Steelers-Jersey/. "Everybody got to play and everybody played well. Guys made shots and its a good feeling." The Spurs bench scored 58 points, with only one coming from Ginobili. Duncan played only 27 minutes, sitting out the fourth quarter as San Antonio built its lead to as many as 28 points in the second half after breaking the game open early. The Spurs went on a 15-0 run bridging the first and second quarters, taking a 29-16 lead that essentially put the game out the Bucks reach. Milwaukee went scoreless for five minutes, missing six shots, committing two turnovers and an offensive foul. Hensons 20-foot jump hook with 11:18 remaining in the first half ended the drought. Mills opened the run with the first of his four 3-pointers, sinking a 25-footer with 4 minutes left in the first quarter. "They move the ball, they make the right play and they get the open shot," former Spurs guard Gary Neal said. "Patty was the recipient of good ball movement today and he was able to knock the shots down. You have to give credit where credit is due, that system has been in effect for a long time and its been successful for a long time." Even the notoriously tough Popovich was able to give his team a figurative pat on the back afterward. "Coaches are sick puppies," Popovich said. "Theres always things you can improve and do better. You look at the film, try to keep your standard and get ready for playoffs, but overall it was a good performance." NOTES: Parker received the La Gazzetta Dello Sports European Player of the Year award before the tipoff. Parker led France to its first European Championship in the off-season. . Neal was greeted by apathy when he entered the game, receiving little reaction in his first game in San Antonio since leaving in the off-season as a free agent. . Bonner missed the game with a broken nose he sustained after taking an elbow from the Trail Blazers Thomas Robinson in the first quarter Friday night. . Spurs analyst Sean Elliott quickly grabbed his notebook and paperwork during the first half when Duncan walked toward the scorers table with a mischievous grin.
