Cowboys want to trade Alfred Morris

[8FOR!3]

"Cowboys want to hold on to dunbar..."

Why? Gimme McFadden. And find a rb in the draft. Seemed everytime dunbar was in something would go wrong on the play

Yeah bc teams aren't stupid, when Dunbar is involved in the play you know he's going to be the focus of the play. It's either a run or a screen to Dunbar. We don't play these guys enough to put them in like that, we just need one main backup and obviously insurance depth. But Zeke needs too much playing time for someone like Dunbar to actually be valuable. You can really reverse that and say Dunbar needs more playing time to be valuable, but we can't afford to give that to him bc of Zeke's value.

I don't get the Infatuation with Dunbar....how is he still on this team?

 

[conner01]

I doubt we get more then a 7th

I would be thrilled with a 7th

 

[manster4ever]

I doubt we get more then a 7th

agree...he'll probably be released IMO.

So does this mean A.P is coming to town as the backup?

The Cowboys don’t have to worry about who will be their starting running back next season, but they are apparently working out how they want to staff things behind Ezekiel Elliott.

Alfred Morris reportedly isn’t part of their desired mix. Clarence Hill of the Fort Worth Star Telegram reports that the team will try to trade their veteran backup because they believe he’s a bad fit for third-down work and spot duty.

Morris signed a two-year deal with Dallas last offseason and ran 69 times for 243 yards and two touchdowns. Morris was inactive for three of the team’s final four games as Darren McFadden returned from an elbow injury to join Lance Dunbar in the reserve ranks.

Playing sparingly last year after turning in a pedestrian 2015 season in Washington seems unlikely to generate a major trade market for Morris. Releasing him would leave $500,000 of dead money on the Dallas cap.

McFadden and Dunbar are set to become free agents. Hill reports that the Cowboys would like to hold onto Dunbar while McFadden said recently that he thinks the Cowboys want him back.

I wouldn't mind seeing the Cowboys trade Alfred Morris off for a 4th round or lower but to sign McFadden back, I rather see the Cowboys draft D'onta Foreman from Texas or Donnell Pumphrey

I wonder if Jones can use him as a throw-in on abother trade, ala Akin Ayodele.
