Let's look at the facts that prove trading Barber for McFadden is definitely the wrong move. Barber has proven himself great in the NFL. He's about three TIMES better then the leagues average runner. He has 4.5 average yards in his NFL career. McFadden.. It's a gamble. So lets look at college averages. Barber has EXACTLY the same average as McFadden! They both have 5.8 average yards in their college careers! So why would you trade a player that is EQUALLY good and two first round picks that we NEED for our secondary for someone not tested in the pro's? You wouldn't.

There's only one thing I REALLY can't stand about this forum... Every individual topic has 50 dedicated threads. You couldn't post your thoughts in one of the other 47 McFadden draft rumor threads?
no way you give up 2 1st round picks and MBIII, although I might consider Barber and a first.

I might consider Barber and a first too... if we got back a 2nd, 3rd this year and a 2nd, 3rd next year.

Maybe i missed something but i read about MB and 1 first round pick and maybe a third. Where did you get that info about 2 firsts from ?
Anyways....
Trading Barber for McFadden to me makes no sense at all. Way to much value to give up. trading MB and a first for Miami's first and trading down again for ... say 2 firsts, to me makes much more sense. we would have 3 first round picks: WR,CB and Felix Jones. I could live with that.

The answer to that is.....is that his thoughts get buried on page 100 and does not get any interaction. The one thing about this site that I cannot stand is that if you are not an elite-ist poster you don't get responded to.
That is why I read mostly. Good is the info at Cowboyszone. For over 5 years been here I have.

Better to face the pain and reality now --then to think it will just suddenly
end ---now that you are feeling better --do you think we should have
drafted Merriman instead of Ware :laugh2:

Never let anyone outside of the family know what you are thinking.... NOW they will post multiple threads per day.
Jerry concerns me. I think he makes this team and gives more than he should.
Barber=proven
Draft picks= unproven
I dont like it.

You make a good point.
But when you have everyday regular that constantly reload the page it gets annoying to them. I believe this stunts the growth of the forum.
If a poster posts every few days and misses something then he gets blasted for it when he starts a thread that has been started already whether it was yesterday or a few days before.
BUT... in alot of cases it is done to annoy.
Forums need a better setup or some sort of categorization.

Is there someone not on the current Cowboys' roster that would have been worth two first round draft choices? Brady, P. Manning, Strahan, Moss..?
Is there anyone in this draft who might push us over the top (not over the edge)?
Sedric Ellis, Chris Long, or one of the cornerbacks?

I wouldn't get too worked up on it. According to the media, Jerry Jones has an undesirable mancrush for former Arkansas players.
How many Arkansas players has Jones drafted?
Zero.
The last 3 Arkansas players Dallas has signed was Clint Stoerner (a guy who came in to be a #3 QB), Jermaine Brooks (an undrafted free agent that couldn't get off the practice squad), and Ken Hamlin (a good safety that filled a major need, that we signed to a 1 year deal).
