Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
According to the team's official web site, the move suggests the Cowboys may rely more on an H-Back position in their blocking scheme, an idea alluded to when the team signed tight end Dante Rosario – who has limited H-Back experience – in early June. The move opens up a roster spot for the Cowboys, who have 89 players on the roster with just one week until training camp. Vonta Leach is easily the top fullback in free agency at this point, though it's doubtful he would sign with the Cowboys. Leach made roughly $1.3 million with Baltimore during the 2012 season, and he is reportedly seeking a multi-year contract at his next stop.
