Like Adams would cure the Cowboys problems. Can he play D and stop the run? We definitely didn't need another headcase on our team.
But if he can do those things you state and average more than 2.1 ypc as an RB would you take a looksie?

The thing that startles me is just the difference in reactions. The Jets lose a game against a division rival (at the moment their only division rival) because their WR fell down on a route. Within 12 hours they are finalizing a trade to upgrade their WR room. The Cowboys get pounded into the dirt by an NFC rival and 2 days later the owner wants to gaslight the fanbase and silence anyone questioning his brilliance.

Breaking News: This TRADE would not make the 2024 cowboys any better!!!!!!!!!!
it most definitely would make the cowboys better.It would not make the SB worthy though because this defense sucks so bad.

EXACTLY!!!!! Didn't they say on the broadcast that Detroit pressured Dak on more than 50% of his pass attempts Sunday? And, with the AWFUL SCHEME (as so delicately pointed out by Brady every time he's called Dallas this year), was Adams going to be open? This team is MULTIPLE PLAYERS AWAY from being legitimate contenders for even the NFC East Crown at this point.

MULTIPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Players away, we look like a team full of pee wee football players who just started playing football, why bring a guy like Adams here only for him to see the problems we already see, piss him off even more

I'm sorry but I disagree because of the offense that we run, the quick drives we have, the poor blocking we have, the routes/game plan isn't good enough
I think his price is too steep but I guarantee you he make that catch in the end zone last week CeeDee missed. He also takes pressure off of CeeDee but i dont disagree with some of above statement. Hes a solid possession receiver

Coogi, I've said for years that I would LOVE to see an innovative OC come here and try to fix Dak and all that continues to plague this team offensively when they have to play REAL defenses. I'm actually amazed that Dak and CeeDee have put up the numbers they have with no imaginative play calling and design. And, if Dak failed in THAT system, then we really know he's cooked. Look at what Ben Johnson did for Goff after McVay discarded him.

Is Dak willing to learn a new system, I feel like they've made it easy for him to be comfortable in this system to ensure he's actually able to run the system. The system is boring, every pass play consists of the shotgun, same formations, curl routes hitches etc, nothing major that actually makes a defense have to work hard! Guys are covered why because we don't make the defense think, we need WEAPONS guys that can actually scare the defense, and plays that can scheme our guys open

With his salary and age I do not think we would be advised to get him costing us a second rd pick

HOWEVER I do like how the Jets move quickly to try and fix a problem

what does Jethro do?
doubles down and then threatens anyone questioning him

Still can’t believe we only got a 6th round pick when we traded Amari Cooper to the browns who was still in his prime and better than Adam’s today probably.
