If so would you?

He wants a big contract and if you trade for Mankins, he won't be ready for two or three weeks, he hasn't been to training camp, he's not in shape to play right away..

MegaMagick;3623434 said:Man we've been saying this for weeks now, shows you how bad the NFC is. I'd trade a 2nd and/or package a play for Mankins in a heart beat if the pats are up to it.
Barber + a 4th maybe.
That's B.S. The guy is a veteran. Give him a full week and he'll be ready. If not that then definitely two weeks of practice.The Quest for Six;3623431 said:Forget about mankins, if Dallas loses today, they're done!

Grab Mankins with a 2nd and any good FS in the 1st. I don't watch College ball, are there any good safeties this coming draft?Jimz31;3623508 said:Is he not a proven stud on the o-line?
If we draft an o-lineman in the FIRST round, what are the chances that he is starting right away? Not good.
I would do the trade for a second without even thinking about it. The o-line is too important....the best QB in the world will look like a JAG behind a porous o-line.
Give me a dominant o-line for the Cowboys and the chances of a ring go up exponentially.

MichaelWinicki;3626448 said:No sense trading for anyone at this point.
Makes more sense trading some of the Cowboy's talent for future draft picks.
stasheroo;3626525 said:I disagree.
I think this team could not only use Mankins now, but there has got to be major changes coming at guard anyway.
Leonard Davis is terrible and Kosier unfortunately cannot stay healthy.
The guard spot is in need of a major overhaul, why wait?
Better yet, why risk rolling the dice in the draft when you can get a sure thing?
Just because this season is shot doesn't mean we shouldn't try to improve for next year.
