Danny Shelton traded? Could have been our 1T for cheap

"A trade? Is that legal?"

Stephen seeing all these trades this week and can't quite put his finger on why teams aren't calling Dallas.

Ok. I get it. No high priced guys. But This is the type of move that fits their parameters. FO needs to get off their butts and on the phone with every team and find some guys that can help contribute for mid to late round picks. Ridiculous. They are putting all of their eggs in one basket. The draft. And that’s a crapshoot.

WoW....I really liked him at Washington and thought he was a great pick for cleveland...just didnt work out that way.
Belichick will get it out of him...or he'll cut him.
Pats may have just gotten Wilfork 2.0.

Or they could've gotten overrated fat guy 446.0
He's averaged 1.5 tackles a game and 0.5 sacks per year in 3 seasons.
Still, He's cheap, maybe He''ll improve, but right now, He's a bust.

Danny Shelton is not a great DT. Why is this even a thread?

Because it would not be right if we went a day without crying about another trade that another team made...

What a bust for CLE. They’ve had a horrible run with first round picks.

Now watch Shelton be All-Pro.

Terrible stats but they may be misleading. Gotta look at the tape to see how well he occupied double teams and played the run. Of course Marinelli doesnt like guys who just eat space so he could be the best DT and we wouldn't want him.

ya...because Kony Ealy thrived under Belechick...oh wait.

I wish people would just go be Patriots fans already

I was being facetious, but they might make something out of him.

We would never take Shelton as he’s a space eater and doesn’t fit our philosophy. If he doesn’t play better, he won’t fit any team’s philosophy.

Washington DTs do have a history of busting.
Steve Emtman.
Danny Shelton.

True, but a terrible stat line, on a terrible team, probably means, You were terrible.

ughhhh

Steve Emtman.
Danny Shelton.

Emtman had His career wrecked by injuries, in His brief time, He showed He could play.

 

[cowboy_ron]

That's the difference between teams that strive to contend every year and us.

He probably hasn't noticed all these trades, to tell you the truth.

I don’t believe in curses. If they were true, nobody would touch Barkley with a ten foot pole.

 

[thisiscowboyscountry]

Seems crazy we wouldn' inquire for a 1tech. They gave him away.

Is it possible some owners are so pissed with Jerry and the battle he had against RG that other organizations won't do business with us trades or other wise?

Could be... we know they're not above such chicanery.
