Greg Ellis Trade?

[TonyS]

Now is the time to trade Ellis. It doesn't mean we'll be releasing him, it just means we want the headache out of Dallas and want something for him.

If we can't get a trade, he'll shutup and play. Dallas hasn't been real good at getting trades for players in the past and we've let some potential trade opportunities leave.

Hopefully, if we are entertaining trade options, there are some good player names floating around.

 

[Bob Sacamano]

I think the team takes a hard line on Ellis. You simply can't throw 8 sacks out the door.

I think they already are, by not trading him, I don't think Dallas is looking into that possibility

not yet at least

 

[BigDDynasty]

He is being such a little ! I think we gotta find a trade, the sooner, the better to get rid of the distraction. Did anyone else hear what i am talking about though(Sirius comments on Elliss)??

 

[Waffle]

Why do we keep talking about an Ellis trade? Jerry and Bill have both said he is not going anywhere. His salary is relatively cheap for player of his caliber and Ellis has already said that he will not hold out. Unless he turns into a jerk or distraction, all this trade talk is wishful thinking in my view.

Apparently someone just heard mention on Sirius of a possible trade happening.

didn't Sirius report about a Ellis trade last offseason? to Denver I think, and how someone in the New Orleans organization heard about it?

 

[BigDDynasty]

I heard the last of it, and wondered if anyone caught the whole thing? It was about an hour ago....Kirwan was speaking about Elliss for a corner and a draft pick....

 

[stilltheguru]

people are being too harsh on greg.if you put yourself in his shoes you would do the same thing.



he is not going to have an oppurtunity to play that much this year so when they do cut him next year who is going to want to pay him what he is worth?NOBODY

he wants to play so he can show his potential suitors next year what he can still do.or give him some more money in dallas and keep him in the rotation.its all about financial stability and i dont blame him one bit for doing this.

yall have alot of nerve bashing him like this.

*awaits the hate coming my way*

probably some 4th string corner and a 6th

 

[iceberg]

What else are the Ravens offering? I mean, if they threw in Terrell Suggs, that sounds fair.

we'll need their 1st and maybe 2nd round pick next year also.

I wasn't listening to Sirius today, but I would bet Kirwan was merely speculating about what player/position the Cowboys might look at getting if for some reason they decided to trade Ellis.

I was just pointing out that the Cowboys have repeatedly stated he isn't going anywhere. At his salary, I don't blame them.

No, I wouldn't. And there are countless numbers of NFL players, on this team and others, who are in his shoes who aren't doing the same thing. Al Singleton is in his shoes, and he's spending his honeymoon at practice this week while Ellis is enjoying his publicity jaunt.

Since its common knowledge that Greg Ellis is one of the top 10 players at his position, I assume we're going to get a Top 10 CB in return.

Well, since it's probably our deepest position on defense, I guess that makes perfect sense.

if it has to happen, pay attention to the OL for a change, bill!!!!

Ellis for Tom Nalen and a 3rd!

Top 10 player at his position??? I hope you're kidding.

Whatever you do, don't stop posting until 4:30 Central time.

Its when I get off work.

Dang good point. The only bellyaching going on by any player last year or this year is by the team "standup guy" Ellis.

It makes sense since these are the folks saying our CB position is a big question mark
