Breer says Crosby could be traded this week, Cowboys among the interested

[dmq]

He’s injured, so he checks all their boxes.

What I suggested would go against what they've done over the last dozen years. I was assuming a change in philosophy, not expecting it. If they want to contend for a championship, they're going to have to change.

If they solely build through the draft, and trade for a good player, that's no different than drafting a good player with the pick you gave up. It's not helping that much.

Yeah, but I think it's a slight difference in approach. They've traded for high-end players in the past (Amari Cooper, Roy Williams, etc.) and they've traded for low-end players in the past (Cooks, Gilmore, Murray, Elam, etc.), but they haven't done a trade frenzy ... and it seems like based on moves they've made such as adding Quinnen after Pickens and adding Clark that they are more likely to do that than to do a free agent frenzy.

I'm for trying something, anything, different than just trying the same ol', same ol'. If that means trading all of our picks for proven players, I say go for it. It might not work any better but at least it would be different.

If the different is changing their free agent approach to a more balanced approach where they give long-term deals to healthy and productive free agents, then I'm good with that, too.

It's worse trading for a vet is more expensive.

He’s injured

Meniscus surgery isn't a big thing.

 

[XXLMike]

No to Crosby. This is becoming like Earl Thomas.

Oh the horror

 

[Rayman70]

He's injury prone. He's expensive. Easy EL PASO

It is if it lingers. Knees are a iffy thing .

Or maybe he is just a Shaboozey fan!

 

[QuestForSix]

The rumours on Twitter right now are making me sick…

Both 1sts not a chance!!

 

[ShortRound]

Or maybe he wants to be a Cowboy?

 

[805BoysInBlue]

Im pretty sure that the Raiders and Mark Davis have enough respect to let him chose his destination.

#20 and a player and sign the deal

They need pickens more than a draft pick. That would give them a good trio of weapons for whomever they stick at QB.

 

[Zekeats]

Screw that, if your gonna drop both 1st rounders on a DE go get Myles Garrett then.

We Need Herd Of Indians Not a Chief

 

[Pessimist_cowboy]

20th and next years 1st (32nd pick)

It is not Pickens vs a draft pick. It is Pickens vs At least 1 draft pick and most likely $140M.
