Adrian Peterson Sweepstakes ***Officially reinstated (again) and merged***

[FuzzyLumpkins]

Pretty spot on opinions. I agree with both of them. If we don't get Gurley or Gordon in the first we will be dialing Minny.

The RB they invited are projected through the third round. While you might think Yeldon and Ajayi are spares, we have really no idea how those interviews went. I could see them going your way and saying they all are crap or else I think they might continue to do an excellent job scouting/drafting and have some guys that they like past your not sure fire either first round guys.

I agree with you. I don't see any way he goes back to Minnesota.

Too cold up there anyway.

Imagine what it would be if the team's CEO/Executive Vice President/Director of Player Personnel hadn't gone on the record as saying the team will not trade any picks for a vet player...

Nah, but that's not what he really meant. We can explain that away, really we can. He didn't really mean that. Nope not at all. I can't hear you. Nope.

Yeah, he meant they aren't trading picks for a dog doctor.

Right, because all team CEO's and executives always announce and tell us all their every intention and business decision they might make...

Not that I truly believe AP will get traded to or be a future member of The Dallas Cowboys ... But you never know ..

So you think he's lying?

 

[cheftjpeck]

LOL...
No not the Jones.. Can't imagine they would ever lie ...

Of course I don't know if he is lying ,. As of right now .. No.. But it's not like he hasn't changed the truth publicly before

I mean is a poker player lying when he/she makes you believe they might have 4 Aces when really they have a pair of 2's ?

All I'm saying is I wouldn't bet money on what he said .. As you just never know

Well, we can't be sure... but Dallas has been pretty straightforward with what they tell the media. Either they tell the truth or that don't say anything at all, for the most part.

I almost wish they'd put a little cloak and dagger into their draft strategies, lol.

I agree

Not hearing much of anything right now on the Internet about Peterson..............rumors are they want at least a 1st round pick at a minimum

The million dollar question, obviously, is what will Minny do if nobody offers a 1st? Will they just accept the highest bid to date or will they refuse to trade AP?

Going to be an interesting week leading up to the draft.

 

[Tabascocat]

The AP situation will not be solved before or during the draft. This is going to go well into camp IMO. I don't think he will sit out but by the time something happens, it will be too late for Dallas to jump in. He either stays and plays in Minn or is traded at the last possible minute to ARI or OAK. I firmly believe that the Vikings want no part of him going to Dallas and will not outright release him early.

Make no mistake, I want him but he will not be a Cowboy

I agree bro, I think Dallas is the last place on Earth that Minny wants to trade Peterson to..............to this day, Minny is still pissed about the Walker trade and how they got raped and you know dam well that trading Dallas the missing piece to another SB trophy would be more than they could stomach.

That's the impression I am getting, I could be wrong.

I think they'll take whatever they can get. If they've in fact let it be known that he is available, I don't know how you go back from that. Peterson's attitude towards the Vikings would only worsen if that happened.

And again I will say, you either trade him now, or pay him $13 million this year, and even more going forward.

To a guy who doesn't want to be there.

I still say people will be surprised at what a bargain he will turn out to be for the Cowboys, and the praise will come raining down on Jerry and Stephen for how they handled things.

 

[Chuck 54]

I think the Cowboys would like to get APs rights for a 3rd or 4th, but I believe they will offer the 2nd round pick during the draft.

 

[MRV52]

This is business do you really think that Minny cares if he is traded to Dallas? The Vikings are going to take the best option to improve their team regardless of trading partner.
