Twitter: Go Get Quinnen Williams: Available

[JIMMYBUFFETT]

From what I read they don't expect a 1st round pick for him but want more than a 2nd. So it will probably take a 2 and a later round conditional, a compensatory pick, or a player of some sort.

I can’t do a second if it’s going to be early. I’d do a 3rd. A first is not even a option for him.

He'd be the first DT off the board this year bro. Slim pickens brother. Surtain and him would be huge upgrades, but unfortunately this franchise dosent like nasty linemen.

Honestly you trade for Quinnen, a formidable safety, and maybe one formidable OL and then you might actually have a football team where you can't make excuses for the coaches when they continue to suck.

I don't believe this rumor but it is an interesting argument. No, Williams is not going to help the Cowboys in 2020. Nothing would. But he is 22 and has 3 years left on his rookie contract so getting him would be like making your draft pick today instead of in April. Even if the Cowboys were lucky in the 2021 draft and a top DT falls to them i the 2nd round, he is not going to be effective in 2021. Look at the top DTs taken in 2020. Brown and Kinlaw are fighting for playing time. Probably the most effective DT coming out of the 2020 draft right now is Davon Hamilton. He is not dominating but he is plugging the gaps because he is big and strong. Quinnen Williams comes with experience and is ready to reach his potential now.

If the Jets are foolish enough to give him up for a 2nd round pick, even a pick in the top of the round the Cowboys would be dumb not to make the deal. Then they can use their first pick to either trade down for more picks or to grab a LB who can actually make plays.

Cedrick Wilson and a 4th. Done.

No way - I'd prefer to stockpiling picks instead of giving away players and picks. If you want to trade Cedric for Williams straight up that's fine, but no picks.

 

[Stash]

No. We NEED picks. He’s not going to change anything for this team right now. We need a rebuild!!

He's 23 years old, in the 2nd year of his rookie deal. And he's far better than anyone the Cowboys could dream of acquiring with a 2nd round pick.

He would NOT be a short term quick fix, but an actual part of a rebuild.

 

[thunderpimp91]

If he only costs a 2nd you take that deal, and hang up the phone before the jets come to their senses. This isn't a rental player.

My guess is a contending team offers up a 1st though. This feel like the real estate agent that lists the house under value to create buzz and drive the price up.

 

[Stash]

Whats the reasoning behind letting a young guy like this go? He was a stud at bama.

J-E-T-S

"Reason" has nothing to do with anything they do.

 

[Stash]

We’d be trading a top 5-10 pick for him and he isn’t worth it. Better to have flexibility with the pick. I’d rather have a LB or OT in the first.

The asking price is not a 1st rounder.

 

[Denim Chicken]

Wouldn't it just be better to draft a guy and shed bad contracts - see Jaylon Smith, Demarcus Lawrence and Zeke?

The fact is you know Williams is good and he's still on the rookie contract. You're not getting out of any of those other contract soon.

 

[Stash]

I wonder what it would cost. The thing is if it’s a second. He’s better than any dt we’ll choose in the top 3-5 in the second round. But is that enough for the jets?

I think they want a 2nd rounder and a later pick. I'd gladly give them our 2nd and one of the later comp picks we have coming which are now tradeable, say a 5th.

How much of his rookie contract is left? Do we lose him once it's up?

He is part of the rebuild - young DT on a rookie contract.

 

[Stash]

He was the third pick in the draft a year and a half ago. Jets aren’t letting him go for less than a first.

You should read the reports referenced in the tweets.

 

[Denim Chicken]

Not sure, but if you do not re-sign him when it's over, then you get a comp pick.

 

[Stash]

The remainder of this year, two more years after that, and a 5th year option since he was a 1st rounder.

 

[Landryhat73]

a 4th and a player. I woudn't be opposed to trading Jaylon or Woods with a 4th for this kid.

Why would they want our garbage?

 

[Ranching]

We have too many pieces to scrap it and rebuild. If we can get talent on the cheap, do it.

 

[Flamma]

Regardless what Dallas gives up for him, they'd have to hope he breaks out. Next year will be his 3rd. If he's still ho hum, then what?

 

[Landryhat73]

What about Gallup for Williams straight up? Don’t get me wrong I love Gallup but WR is a position of strength and a weakness for the Jets. Don’t think we would be able to resign Gallup anyway with Cooper on the books.
