If you're going to sign Hardy, DAL did it the right way from a contract perspective:

Cowboys coach Jason Garrett wants Greg Hardy to know he’d better be on his best behavior in Dallas, or he won’t be there long.

Garrett said at today’s league meeting that Hardy, who played only one game for the Panthers last year after a domestic violence accusation, understands that the Cowboys will cut him if he doesn’t conduct himself the right way.

“The conditions of the contract were important: No guaranteed money, earn it every step of the way. At any point, if we don’t feel like you’re doing what we want you to do as a player and as a person, we can move on from you,” Garrett said.

Hardy’s contract is heavy on incentives, with the potential to earn more than $13 million if he plays in every game and plays well. But Hardy also has the potential to earn zero. The Cowboys want him to know that’s a real possibility, if he does anything that makes the team decide he’s not worth the trouble.
