Jerry Jones open to further moves after signing Von Miller
The Cowboys have hinted at a "substantive" trade for a defensive player since training camp opened, and Jones said Miller's signing doesn't change that
Miller was expected in camp on Monday night and to begin the ramp-up process on Tuesday
The Cowboys signed free agent Deion Sanders before the 1995 season and won a third Super Bowl in four years
“He trains with our consulting trainer, and boy, [Jordan] had been telling us for all this past year, ‘Boy if we could get [Miller].’ He knew first-hand because he works with him all the time and knew that he could help us. And of course, that trainer is working with all of our guys. We feel real good.”

Stephen Jones discusses Cowboys signing Von Miller
Von Miller is a DeSoto, Texas native and is a two-time Super Bowl champion.
The Cowboys considered the trade compensation for Maxx Crosby too high.
Miller is tied with DeMarcus Ware for ninth in career sacks at 138.5.
“It’s a long season and certainly to put him, Ezeiruaku, Gary, Malachi is having a hell of a camp. There is James Houston and Sam [Williams] and we’ve got a good group of guys. But I just feel like between Coach [Brian] Schottenheimer, [defensive coordinator] Christian [Parker], Jerry, myself, that this was the right thing for us.”
