DeMarco Murray admits he wants to sign new Dallas Cowboys deal

Dallas Cowboys running back DeMarco Murray has said that he wants to sign a new contract with the team.

Murray is on the free agents list, but he believes that a deal can be struck with the side that he joined in 2011.

However, he has warned Dallas that he knows his value, after he scored 13 touchdowns last season.

He told ESPN: "Obviously I think they want me here. I want to be here. It's just finding just what helps them, what helps me. Things like that. I think both sides want to be here, so I think we'll see where it goes."

He added: "At the end of the day, it's all about respect, and I think different people show their appreciation in different ways. I don't need a pat on the back. I don't need someone telling me how good I am on a constant basis and whatnot like that. I understand my value, so to speak, and I understand what I bring to the table."

Murray has scored 28 touchdowns in his career so far.
