Twitter: Gary and Crosby Comparison

[erod]

Lol, Gary doesn't belong in the same conversation as Crosby.

No one is trading two first rounders for rashan freaking gary!

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

I just think it's too late to make that trade. If you made it before camp sure.

I mean it's still preseason I think the timing would be good. I don't think it would happen and honestly I'd rather have Pickens but if I'm losing Pickens for nothing then yeah I'd take Crosby.

 

[RandyOh]

This is also the same guy who thought Beasley and Allen Hurns were number 1 receivers..

Well talent isnt in question with Pickens. Its more or so attitude. will he revert back to how he was in Pitt after getting paid? He seems to love it in Dallas so i would hope that stops all that if he does get paid.

 

[Jstopper]

Man I don’t even know if we are paying Pickens lol….id assume Pickens is a part of the trade to get Crosby.

There’s a 0% chance the Cowboys send Pickens away this season lol

 

[Reid1boys]

Not at what it will cost in both draft picks and money. Unless you think we are one player away and that player is Crosby.

He wouldn't be a luxury but getting him would cost even more deleted draft picks next year and money that could be used for someone like Pickens.

oh my.... but next years picks.... how can we give up next years picks? We know those picks will be the missing links.....smh.

 

[darthseinfeld]

That would be a dumb trade fir multiple reasons

Yup. You are giving up the better player who is also younger and has no health issues. Crosby two years ago is probably better than Pickens now. But its not two years ago

 

[kskboys]

Do we really need Maxx Crosby?

This is dummm. They play different positions. Gary needs a stud pass rusher across from him. When you think of Gary, think Tony Tolbert, think Antonio Smith. Solid run stoppers w/ decent pass rush skills.

 

[kskboys]

Crosby is really overrated as a pass rusher

But the team is so terrible every year it's not like he gets a lot of real opportunities

You say the dangdest things.

I think they wanna see how the start of the season shakes out . If they look good they might add Crosby and a vet corner back and go for it. You can trade a 1st for Crosby and recoup that somehow somewhere down the line it doesn’t really matter . Don’t gotta horde the assets . Dak has 1-2 years left

I said the same thing about Micah…..

 

[kskboys]

Paying major assets for a 32 year old w/ bad knees would be foolish.

 

[Rayman70]

We don't need him. Trust the plan in place by CP. He's got this. If he thought we had to add another big name dude, Maxx would be here already. That's telling. The moves we have done on defense are all CP guys. He wanted these particular players. Besides that, how many snaps a game would MC get per game with the current DE/olb room? Sometimes we overthink things. We have young guys like Land, having a great camp, and others of course like Barham, and quietly tyus wheat is steady Eddie. I didn't even know we had him back in Dallas lol. He seems to thrive here. It's a young man's game, let them cook. Maxx has those shaky knees anyway.

Bingo

It’s a silly approach if so.
They should try and get him now that he way skip the whole trade for him at 3-3 or 3-4 and hope for a run….but this is what they did last year and when they traded for Amari…..

I mean they did try to trade for him. Ravens just outbidded them. So there is a concern.

 

[Rayman70]

Well Maxx is a totally different kind of player, to your point. He's more of a 4-3 pure pass rush guy. Gary is not that at all so the comp isn't even fair. Gary is a power de player with some pass rush skills and better against the run. My concern with Gary is in 3-4 if he has to drop back and cover. That's not his game.

I think they are going to surprise. Should have better QB play. Not a playoff team, but not 2-3 wins either.
