News: ESPN: Claiborne demoted, skips walk-through

[Corso]

Opportunity for what?

To swap him for another first round bust? Cannot see one like him on the Lions roster.

Opportunity to get laughed at and hung up on.

 

[yimyammer]

The kid can't play, and he has been killing us for sometime now. One of the worst draft choices in club history.

And believe it or not, but he is the sixth most expensive player on our team this year.

What is even worse is that the Cowboys guaranteed Claiborne's entire contract, so even if we cut him next year, we still end up with the same salary cap ramifications. Best case scenario we can trade him for a player in a similar situation.

***!?!?!?!

 

[Vintage]

I'd rather root for a player's success- thus helping the team than celebrating failure.

I'm still not sure how you got "vindication" though.
Did someone pee in your Wheaties over your opinion of him?

No kidding. I don't think Lawrence is going to amount to much. And if I am right, I sure as hell won't feel vindicated. I will feel disappointed that I wasn't wrong.

i'm batting 1000 on Claiborne my friend. Took a lot of crap for it, now I feel vindicate. Let me enjoy it lol.

so we should quit pampering the players make them earn their position or not

Says a lot about the culture when players feel entitled. What we do after this will say even more.

I suspend him. I don't care if it costs us a game. I make a statement that childish reactions to the decisions of the coaching staff and leadership will not be tolerated.

They thought they were making one with Dixon after his behavior. I say make a bigger one here.

 

[rcaldw]

I will be impressed (I'm including myself in this, so not picking on Zordon), when we all come in here and trumpet our wrong opinions as loudly as we do our correct ones.

 

[Oh_Canada]

He's not playing great every one knows that. But the ring leader drafted him when he did. Now he's going to do what he does best.
Make a circus out of it. Don't you wish Jerry would just shut up? I wish he would disappear. Garret handled the questions just right.
Jerry didn't need to expand on it.
And I blame jerry for way more than this trust me.

What circus? He was asked a question and responded. If Mo is that sensitive he can't play corner in the NFL.

 

[Zordon]

I'm glad being right is so important to you

Better than being wrong. Seriously starting to think a group of five of us on CZ would do a better job than Jerry Jones.

 

[BAT]

They should try and trade Dolores Claiborne to the Lions.

This is Dallas' opportunity.

They should have tried trading him before the demotion, Cowboys devalued him after a game they could have talked him up (game saving INT). Nothing to be done about that now but a trade is in best interests for all parties, just can't believe how poorly Cowboys come out in player trades past 20 years.

 

[Galian Beast]

Morris Claiborne is the 26th highest paid corner in the league right now, Brandon Carr is the 5th highest paid, Orlando Scandrick is the 37th highest paid...

You'd think our corners were shutting down wide receivers.

And people wonder why we can't shut down tight ends? Well we have the 30th paid safety and the 79th paid safety in the league...

Our secondary is a joke, and when you combine our porous pass rush... well you get what you see...

 

[Alexander]

I don't care about players who give minimal effort on and off the field. This guy has shied away from too many practices and too many tackles for my liking. It was "cool" to hate on Jenkins for the similar attributes but this guy gets a pass? Please...

Jenkins actually had the guts to compete with Scandrick for his job. He lost, but at least he did not pull a hissy fit and storm off.

Well if he sucks that bad then suspending him wont cost us a game will it? I just wish the front office would learn how to handle these types of things better.

 

[AmericanCowboy]

This isn't good.

We will need Mo.

Need him to do what? The team is better without him on the field.

Guy can't tackle and doesnt make any plays. He is one of the 10 worst corners in the league.

 

[NorthwestDallas40]

This move HAD to be made. And I'm glad Mo is upset. Now, let's see if he has any heart. If he does, he'll work his *** off and reclaim a starting position. If not, good riddance.

 

[Galian Beast]

***!?!?!?!

Was there a question to go with those marks?

You go ahead and enjoy a Cowboys player that the team you root for and paid a mint for failed.

I hope you sleep nice and snugly chuckling about it tonight.

 

[yentl911]

Un real. Way to build confidence in the guy jurrha.

Get a grip. Screw this kid. The team and FO has bent over backwards to provide the most positive environment possible to help this kid along and he is a failure as a player and now appears to be turning into a head case as well.

Kudos to Jerry for calling this punk out. What a waste of a top ten pick.

His play doesn't warrant him being on the field at all never mind starting. A total waste.

 

[stilltheguru]

To be fair, nobody likes to be called out by their boss. And that's basically what Jerry did...and then to be demoted on top of that? Some ppl don't react well to that.

It's what he does after he cools off is what matters to me.

Most people aren't getting paid millions to play a game either. He's a little b word.

 

[WoodysGirl]

Love the defense of this clown here. Do we really need him against NO? Guys like Brian? Quick were blowing past him this past Sunday. Claiborne couldn't play in the CFL. I'd rather see Moore get time in the nickel and Patmon get some run.

Don't care about Mo's wonderlic score, but his attitude about the test told me all I needed to know about this turd. And Johnnie Walker Jones still drafted him, even traded up too. Smh

Whose defending him, though?

 

[Alexander]

Well if he sucks that bad then suspending him wont cost us a game will it? I just wish the front office would learn how to handle these types of things better.

Not even sure it would cost us a game. I do know if this is allowed, it will hurt more in the long run.
