Is it to early for us to have a fire sale?

If only we could look into the future! LOL
Ok This is my thought process.

I have to ask myself is this team good enough to go to the SB and Win it?
MY answer is NO
There is so many good things that has happened and the future looks bright.
Diggs He is a keeper
Cee DEEE Is the future.
Our OL young guys are getting some playing time and experience. They really havent looked that bad considering that this year we are running a line that is without FreeBeard, Collins and Smith
Those are some big shoes to fill and we have played some descent Defense The true test is going to be here on out because Andy isnt Dak and opposing teams dont have to worry that he is going to take off and run.
Im not saying that we should Tank because we are still in this thing and thats funny as heck lol
After losing Dak we are about to find out just how good Dak is for this team.

Defense Oh My is just so horrible it is really hard for me to watch without getting pissed off. Im just not sure even when we get LVE LEE and Chido back that we will be any better. The DL that we thought would be a strength for us has been MIA I just dont have any faith in Nolan. Hate the hire just hate it and there are a few DC out there that can come in here and do a better job IMO. Not this year though.
Im trying to give Nolan the benefit of the doubt because really its been an off season with not much time to implement his system So Im trying to be rational
My question is should we try to trade for any one at this time or try to wait it out and build the DL, Secondary through the draft?
I really dont want to give up any of my top 3 picks unless its someone young that can come in and not cost us big $$$
We have some good draft picks and if Dallas loses five or more games I would look to trade players for more draft picks if they are not in my future plans.
No WAY am I giving up Gallup unless he nets me a 1st to a losing team and I would still be weary. I would like to see what this Offense can do when healthy and having a true off season and training camp.
Gallup and Cee Dee are our future 1 and 2 with Cooper being the odd man out.
Now if for some miracle Dallas goes on a 9 game win streak then thats different but by that time the trade dead line will have passed.
Guys that I would consider trading and this would hurt is Noah and Cedrick Wilson If I could get a 4th for Wilson I would do it.

I dont want to sound like the season is over cause there is still some football left. I just dont like what I am seeing with this defense that gives me any hope. For goodness sake Heath had an INT yesterday and I missed him thats so sad!
Unless Daks injury could be career ending we are going to have some money tied up with him Dak has shown me that he is the franchise QB and he has done nothing but work his butt off to improve his game. I am a Dak believer!

If I could get a couple of 1's for Zeke Now I would do that in a heart beat. I would even consider trading Tank if I see that he is not going to adjust and improve in this defense. If they decide to stick with Nolan.

Personally I would love to see Nolan being fired by years end and bring someone like Mike Zimmer in if he is fired. Leslie Frazier, Jim Schwartz. Not to sound rude but Floaty could come in and do a better job with this defense. lol

cristglo---yep its our defense that is the issue...and i believe its the 2-gap change that may play a lot in it...we played 1-gap for 7 years and had some decent defenses...even with injuries we should not be near this bad...we are

at NFL all time low bad...we need in season DC change and scheme go back to easier 1-gap so players can react and not have to think...they will immediatly hustle more too...but we probably wont and our defense will lose our season

Fire sale, no! The transition to Dalton should force Kellen Moore to call a more traditional style of offence, which is to establish the run, drop back pass, and play action. I think that suits the Cowboy's and Dalton's strengths better. Biadasz is the new future at center, Knight at left tackle is'nt bad, and Steele, at right tackle, we'll see. Cowboys are in the hunt, no fire sale.

only in the hunt because the division is so bad. Obviously anything can happen, eagles won a sb, with a makeshift line and backup qb. I'd rather full rebuild though than go 6-10 and not have a premium pick.

Best trade bait right now

ASmith - Gone after this year. We're not going to spend to keep him. Cash in this year. Maybe someone will be willing to franchise a stud DE, so that their trade is worthwhile.
Gallup - Gone after next year. We aren't going to spend to keep him. Our 1 and 2 are Cooper and CD already. Cedrick Wilson is looking good enough for our 3rd. Gallup has peaked. Sell high.

This thread and subsequent posts are just examples of how trashed this forum has become. Time for me to check out for awhile. Can’t handle these losers.

This is Jerry's thought process. The Cowboys are in first place and he turns 78 tomorrow. He's not giving up on this season.

There really is no one to trade. Anyone who should be or could be moved would involve a huge cap hit and dead money.


This is why some of us saw this as the perfect year to tear down the team, hire a new young coach and rebuild it. Could have done this and still competed for the East.

Matt rhule has the panthers at 3-2 after doing this exact thing. I believe Matt Eberflus could have done the same thing here.

now the organization is stuck in neutral for the next X amount of years.

Who can they even sell? Anyone worth a lick plays offense. Do you want to make the offense terrible as well just to try to draft a new QB?

I don't consider trading Wilson for a 4th a "fire sale".

The other 3 mentioned; Zeke for 2 firsts, Cooper and Tank aren't a fire sale, those would be under consideration regardless.

Let's see how Dalton performs over the next 3-4 games before having a fire sale. If he goes winless, sure, fire-sale all the way. If he turns in a strong performance, the season's still good to go. Remember, this NFC East is the weakest we've seen in a long, long time.
