If I'm so pretty, why am I available?

No way is another team giving us anything for either of these guys.

Everything said on Joseph by the coaches has been positive so would be surprised to see him go.

I'm not sure if Cox was just a bust or the knee injury robbed him of his career. What a disappointment either way.

I would keep Joseph.
Cox just never seems to have had the light come on....just kind of runs around willy nilly. There will certainly be a LB cut that is better than he is. And the likelihood is one of our S could take his place and do a better job.

Joseph has played better but lining up offsides? Just seems to be a mental midget. I think the status of Lewis probably has a big impact on whether he stays or goes. Who is more valuable right now, Joseph or Scott? I know Scott flashed a bit early, but seems like fewer and fewer mentions of him as camp has gone on. Is a former 2nd rounder more valuable than a current 6th rounder that you used extra picks to get? And Nashon Wright is part of that picture too....at times he looked good in camp, but this high ankle sprain has shut him down. After the top 4 corners it is anybody's guess IMO.

They will give Joseph another year because of where he was picked. Now if someone offers a mid rd pick for him maybe
Cox will only hang around if they do not find another vet LB to replace him

The decision upon Joseph should be strictly on demonstrated secondary skills alone, now.

Why would a team offer a trade? If they aren’t going to make our roster, they will be available very soon. Neither of these guys currently have the value for a trade IMO.

Cox is still a linebacker at his core...he's still needed or his new replacement then.

Lewis better be close to ready if they are going to cut Kelvin. No one else plays the slot but Bland

Joseph got called for an offsides penalty playing cornerback. :facepalm: The Cowboys cannot afford to play dumb players.

Traded? What?

Why would any team trade for either?
Cox? Doubt it.

Joseph? Possibly. 2nd round pick with two years on his rookie deal. Could flip it for a late pick and if he busts it’s still cheap.

Joseph is finally learning how to reign in his physicality enough to avoid flags. That was once again demonstrated yesterday.

Maybe this guy has heard about them being on the block but more likely its facile analysis and click bait.

A Joseph cut would be a little surprising as I thought he's been playing better in the preseason games. However, we don't see what happens every day in practice.

It was interesting Wright didnt play while Joseph did. I assumed Joseph would have been ahead of Wright but who knows.

Joseph is awful. He's a complete moron. Year 3 and he's getting pre snap penalties? He's a liability.
Jason Witten played how many years and would still get pre snap penalties? Remember Flozell Adams and his false starts?

I'm not saying Joseph has played to the level of those guys but after 2 years in the league doesn't mean you will never get a penalty.

I get it, lining up offsides is such a dumb penalty but go look at the best players in the league and tell me they have never done that.

This was a preseason game, it's the time to get that stupid crap out your system

I think Wright was injured or something
