The Facts:
Drew Rosenhaus, the agent for Barber, said he plans to meet with the Dallas Cowboys this week at the NFL scouting combine. The Cowboys have said they would like to sign the standout running back to a long-term deal. Rosenhaus acknowledged that a meeting was coming but wouldn't get into specifics.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
As noted in a previous item, Dallas is expected to give Barber, a restricted free agent, a $2.562 million tender, which would require another team to fork over first- and third-round picks to get him. The Cowboys value Barber as the future at running back, especially after he earned his first Pro Bowl berth despite not starting a regular-season game. Look for that to change in 2008 with Julius Jones, who becomes an unrestricted free agent next week, expected to move on.
