Litmus test. They might have gotten a few offers that they're meh about, but consider pursuing to up things via negotiation.
And yet they want to know fan reaction, like they always do.
You magnificent so-and-so!Aaron Donald, come on down,
Like I said: Litmus test.Why telegraph your moves on Twitter of all places.
I'd think this applies to all players on the teamI'd see what his market it. Like if someone got crazy and offered you a first in this draft for him? Yeah, I'd probably take that. A high 2nd? I'd probably consider that too.
This is a fan question sent into the their media site which is totally separate from the front office. Same as if the dmn/star-telegram were asked the question. I assure you that David Helman and Rob Phillips are not making personnel decisions for the Cowboys.Why telegraph your moves on Twitter of all places.
Thank you.This is a fan question sent into the their media site which is totally separate from the front office. Same as if the dmn/star-telegram were asked the question.
Mailbag: Considering Trading Michael Gallup?
Should, or could the Cowboys look to trade Michael Gallup to get a Top 40 draft pick and a conditional 2022 pick? I think highly of Gallup, but by this time next year his price will prove to be too rich to keep him. Jets, Titans, and the Ravens come to mind as possible targets. — JAMES HOBSON / CHEYENNE, WY
David: I've thought about this a lot since the season ended, and I'm with you. I love Michael Gallup, but he might price himself out of a second contract here in Dallas. If the front office can deal him and draft his replacement this spring, I'm all for it. The only problem is that his contract status might make it hard to get full value for him, as teams typically don't love trading for guys with just one year on their contracts. But if someone was willing to trade a second or third-round pick to get him, I'd have to heavily consider it.
Rob: I understand the long-term logic behind the question. As good as Michael Gallup is (and he's getting better) there's only so much teams can invest at the receiver position, and even a franchise tag next year would not be cap-friendly (it's $16.5 million at WR this year). But the offense is the Cowboys' biggest strength and their best chance at making the playoffs next season. Why weaken that strength for a draft pick who may or may not help you much at all this year? By trying to re-sign Dak, the club is clearly in win-now mode despite 6-10 last year. I just have a hard time buying into a scenario where you sign Dak and then say, "Hey, let's go win a Super Bowl. By the way, one of your best receivers plays for someone else now."
