NFC Whispers
Cowboys covet Chiefs' Carr

Here are some whispers our sources have been hearing from around the NFC:
• All the talk prior to free agency is over which offensive lineman the Cowboys might sign. But another high-profile player at a different position could end up being the apple of their eyes. Sources have said the Cowboys would love for Chiefs CB Brandon Carr to hit the open market, so they can make a run at him. The expectation is that the Chiefs could franchise Carr and are said to be in fine cap shape, but they also have WR Dwayne Bowe to worry about. If Carr somehow makes it to March 13 unsigned, expect the Cowboys to go all in for him and worry about a high-profile guard (Carl Nicks or someone else) thereafter.
• The Redskins likely will address the receiver position in free agency first before they think about leaning on the draft for help. The goal would be to get an instant starter at wideout to complement Leonard Hankerson, who was moving toward a starting role before getting hurt a year ago, and slow WR Santana Moss.
