All I can find is he WILL be released or traded. Also mentions he would rather play DE than LB. Cowboys plan to release or trade DE Ellis after 11 seasons together (http://www.nfl.com/news/story?id=09000d5d810831bd&template=without-video-with-comments&confirm=true)
Same thing I've seen. Nothing set in stone yet as far as I know

ESPN is reporting the Cowboys are in no rush to release him.
Jerry Jones says Greg Ellis likely a goner from Dallas Cowboys - ESPN (http://sports.espn.go.com./nfl/news/story?id=4206691)

They want to trade him, good luck now that theyve spilled the beans that he was gone either way. Teams will just wait it out at this point.

Not necessarily. If a team wants to ensure they get him and not deal with a team higher on the waiver priority list getting him a trade can happen. See Erasmus James

True, But id like to think if the FO did want to make a run for him they wouldnt give too much. We need our picks next yr.

I have stated before i think for our 4-3 he would be a better fit at DE than at SLB covering TE's like Witten and Ingram.

Nothing confirmed yet.

Don't mean to be a prick, but whenever possible use links to confirm news (and use the quote button). Just passing along stuff that I was told to do here when I started posting.

In any 4-3 Ellis would be a better fit as a DE since thats where he played when Dallas ran a 4-3.
I still think he could fit as a LB though. Hell if Orakpo is going to play LB and hes a DE why not Ellis? Id rather have Orakpo at DE and Ellis at LB.
If he comes to Washington he wouldnt have to play SLB imo. He could play WLB and move Rocky to SLB.

It's an extremely simple tool, the quote feature, and it makes the site so much better when used correctly.
Really, no one is trying to give you a hard time.
