Twitter: Jamaal Adams being rumored to the Cowboys yet again

[Jake]

Adams is an intense player, imagine if he got to play for his favorite team. This guy would be on another level

Growing up in Dallas, Jets' Jamal Adams was a Giants fan

 

[Jake]

Anybody not willing to trade Gallup straight up for Adams are insane

Settle down, Rowdy.

Patriots give Gilmore $40 million guaranteed

Also,

Just Demarcus Ware, Emmanuel Sanders, Aqip Talib, and TJ Ward. Not much....

Were you under the impression I said the Patriots never sign a single free agent, because unless you somehow reached that odd conclusion I don't know what Gilmore has to do with anything.

As for the Broncos, those players were added in 2015-4, not 2015, and only Talib got something even remotely in the ballpark of top of the market, but even he wasn't paid at that level.

What about the Eagles?

 

[OmerV]

when you haven't won in 25 years , haven't even sniffed around winning a Superbowl in 25 years the future means nothing, they've been worrying about the future for 25 years. the Pats are an anomaly in the salary cap era. that won't be duplicated. it's time to go for it, been saying it for 4 years now.

That's not exactly true. Jerry has spent money on free agents over the years, just not in more recent years. And, at the end of the day, the best chance to win a Super Bowl is to build a team that contends and gives you a chance every year.

 

[Stash]

You also, have failed the test

It’s amazing that Gallup has now become an elite, all-pro in the eyes of the posters here. I bet there are some who wouldn’t trade him for Thomas or Hopkins straight up. It’s crazy.

He’s a fine receiver but we have a WR1 and the best WR in the draft locked up for four years. Lamb was a luxury pick, I’m not arguing his talent, but now that he’s here, we should *hope* that Gallup is WR3 in 2021.

I’m not advocating trading Gallup and would prefer to just use picks, but the fact that he’s now untouchable is insane.

You guys are way too bought in on the FanZone echo chamber.

We have a SS3 starting for us In a secondary thst is the entire team’s weak link.

We took what steps we could to shore it up in the draft and got a mediocre FS in HaHa, but the secondary is still not good. Not good at all.

So you reach the same conclusion that they do and they're the ones that are "insane"?

Uh, yeah.....

 

[Whirlwin]

As far as the impact he would have on this defense, I think @EMMITTnROY is making a fair comparison.

As far as talent, also yeah.

If it wasn’t for Charles Haley we don’t get a ring. No comparison

 

[KingintheNorth]

If it wasn’t for Charles Haley we don’t get a ring. No comparison

And the argument is being made that Jamal Adams increases this team's chance of winning a ring similarly to the acquisition of Haley did for those 90s team.

 

[darthseinfeld]

sign dak and trade him for Adams.

You do realize in doing you would have to absorb all of Dak's guarenteed money onto the cap. Would be over 100 million in dead money over the next 3 or 4 years

 

[Whirlwin]

And the argument is being made that Jamal Adams increases this team's chance of winning a ring similarly to the acquisition of Haley did for those 90s team.

So you think actually getting the team a ring. And possibly getting a ring is the same thing. Not in my book my cowboy brother

 

[Whirlwin]

sign dak and trade him for Adams.

And then who’s going to play quarterback. Please don’t say Dalton

 

[Whirlwin]

I’m not even sure it’s as good as Woodson. Never mind Haley.

Uh, yeah.....

Hmm, I did not reach the same conclusion.

Quite the opposite

If the deal on the table was Gallup for Adams straight up and I can’t find a pen, then I prick my finger and use my own blood for ink and sign that trade immediately

Anyone who wouldn’t trade Gallup for Adams straight he is insane.

That was the entire premise of the question

But that trade won't happen! Although I badly want the Cowboys to get Adams, trading Gallup wouldn't be a good idea or the approach I'd suggest taking. I'm hoping the Cowboys can get their defense to the level of the offense. You don't trade your young #2 receiver to accomplish that, imho. And, we're all friends here, no need for the "insane" comments.

Then it’s a stupid *** question with no chance of ever happening.

umm. His dad played for the Giants. He is on record as saying he hates the cowboys.

The guy wants to get paid and doesn't want to wait until after year 4...just like zeke.

All this cowboys talk is just Gary Myers throwing stuff against the wall. Joe douglass called stephen jones last year and asked for the moon.

If he gets moved It seems to me it won't be in Dallas.

no the best chance to win is year to year, each year is different and teams change every year.

 

[OmerV]

no the best chance to win is year to year, each year is different and teams change every year.

So, starting from scratch with new players in key positions every year is what you think gives a team its best chance? That makes no sense. It's not even possible to do that. You can't sign a fresh batch of high quality players to one year contracts every year. You have to make commitments and build on them and try to contend every year. Your way does not allow for contending every year.

I can’t even read some of these threads any longer

I agree it’s about innovation. But you need the same guys in the pits they need to learn each other. To me it’s about continuity. But change is also important. Not personnel game theories

And wat I was talking about did not preclude adding players as needed. I talked about building, not just getting to a point and stopping. I have a hard time understanding his idea that that it's a bad idea to build a team that is capable of contending every season.
