Cowboys willing to listen to offers for Leary **merged**

[Moderately_Askew]

Just me, but if we didn't have Collins and Martin, I'd pay a 2nd for him. If they get less than a 3rd they're getting fleeced.

Leary does have that knee condition which may lessen his value.

 

[PJTHEDOORS]

I hope we do trade Leary and get at least a fourth or package him with our third and move back into the second round, our fourth into the third round.

A 4th? Rather have Leary as the backup OG.

But they DO have Collins and Martin and teams know that. A 3rd rounder for a backup guard with bad knees is far better than anything i'd expect. I was thinking more along the lines of a 4th or 5th and at that point you have to ask yourself if he's worth giving ups or that. But if you can get a 4th or get back into that 5th round...maybe that's enticing.

It depends. Do they have someone on their board in the 4th round that they had a high grade on that fell? That 4th round pick becomes enticing.

Leary is a proven, very good starting/backup guard. I'll take the sure thing. 4th round is more miss than hit with our scouting department.

 

[Walker]

I would take a 3rd or better. Anything worse I rather just keep him as a backup and insurance. He may be valued more during the season when other teams guards go down and need a replacement making his value even better.

Leary is a luxury though. And you'd then have three 4th round picks. I don't think you could package the compensatory pick but you could package the other 2 and go up in this draft and snag another player who's high on your board. I wouldn't lose sleep over them trading him or keeping him. He's a nice luxury to have. But he's here what? For another year? If you can get something for him I don't see why you wouldn't deal him as opposed to letting him just leave next year.

What about Leary + McFadden for any sort of pick(s)? McFadden coming off a 1000 yard season on a really good contract... he has to have some value.

A 2cnd or 3rd and I am listening!

I think DMC would have very little value, even on a cheap deal. Old, injury prone and average. I would feel fortunate to get a 6th.

 

[Common Sense]

You guys are silly. Leary doesn't have much value around the league, and honestly, not much value on the team considering they're looking at paying him $2.5M to sit on his couch on Sundays. Stop thinking emotionally and use your head.

 

[JDSTAR]

Leary + 3rd rounder to move back into the early second round so we can take Jack and a good DE.

Jack and Spence would be perfect for me!

McFadden has more value to us than we would ever get back in a trade. He gave us over 1000 yards for very little money last year with a complete dumpster fire at the other skill positions.

I don't disagree. It's already doubtful all the 6th rd picks could even make this roster as is. No need to add another.

 

[Bullflop]

I'd hold out for no less than a third round pick (even if it seems a bit steep.) He could easily prove extremely valuable as a backup if one of our guards go down.

 

[Hardline]

Leary's greatest value is being a reliable plug and play backup. I am not trading him.

 

[Alexander]

A 4th? Rather have Leary as the backup OG.

For a year, because he is gone next year.

If they got a four in exchange for a one year rental, that is a victory. That said, less than that they may be better off keeping him.

Agree.

I take a 4 for Leary in a heartbeat.................like you said, he is gone after this year since he is an UFA and wants to start in this league.

Anything below a 4 and I just keep him for insurance.

 

[visionary]

Jack and Spence would be perfect for me!

One will be out due to injury and the other due to drugs
Perfect !!!

 

[Galian Beast]

Id like to see a player for player trade for Leary. Or for a 2017 pick. Bad time to trade players for current picks. May be able to score a 2017 day 2 from someone who missed and OG run

Very astute. That would be the best thing to do here. If we could trade for some secondary help or someone on the defensive line, that would help us right away.
