One key addition was fullback Tony Fiammetta, who signed full-time in Week 2 and made a solid impact as a lead blocker. In Fiammetta's 10 appearances, the Cowboys averaged 130.4 yards per game and 5.1 yards per carry. Without him, they averaged 75.7 yards per game and 3.3 yards per carry. Overall, the Cowboys ranked 18th in total rushing (112.9). Overall, the Cowboys 18th in total rushing (112.9). Rob Phillips...Dallas Cowboys.com
The one free agent here is Tony Fiammetta and Dallas needs to do everything in their power to re-sign him. YS
Tony Fiammetta FB. The second definite keeper on the list, and not likely to be someone who would have his price bid up. He, like Kitna, already has a 2012 salary negotiated, so I am assuming that is the salary some other team would have to top to trigger a decision by Dallas whether or not it would match. Fortunately, fullback is not one of the high demand positions in the league. (2012 salary would be $565,000) SBN

Regarding Coach P's decision to demote highly regarded OL coach Marv Foley to give the OL coaching job to George DeLeone, relegating Foley to TE coach, if we happen to lose Coach Adkins, I think we should consider hiring Foley (who coached at Colgate for an extended period and has ties to upstate NY).
