Pat Kirwan said it......I sure they will play the show over tonight. And what you said doesn't make sense. Elliss IS forcing a guarantee or a trade. How can we keep it the same after this? What do we just ignore it? And the latter looks alot more likely...I responded to your smart little comment because what I said was the truth and for to accuse me of that is just plain wrong! What am going to get for saying that? A cookie? C'mon man! I heard the end of it and was pretty sure some else was listening to it also.

This is another case where we overvalue "our" player and undervalue "theirs".

Ok I'm all for that...Let right a Wrong and Trade Ellis For Moss!

you know - volek can't be happy about young when he's been busting hump to get the chance, but something tells me he'd not be anxious to sit on the bench here either. at least w/young and he's got open competition.

Tenn did not use a high 1st rd pick as well as paying out the money to get Young for him to sit very long. This will be Young’s job and they will give him every opportunity to succeed. Volek will have to be content with the backup job or look to move on from Tenn

Volek is not much younger than Bledsoe and Bledsoe is a better QB

Bledsoe is 4 years older and truth is Volek has never had much of a chance at the starters role and does not have much wear on him. I'm not advocating Dallas should look at him but I think if he gets a chance to be a starter I think he could do the job based off what I have seen of him when he has had extended playing time

no, he isnt...can you name 10 4-3 LDE's better than him?

If you think you can please do so, we all need some amusement..

the guy is one of the better all around DE's in football but because he was drafted here, by Jones and instead of that loser team cancer Moss, everyone throws Ellis under the bus

its pretty stupid IMO...the guys been a great player for us for years...and he's been an INCREDIBLE bargain when you look at his production vs his cap charges...

Robert Mathis
Adewale Ogunleye
Aaron Schobel

Nice to see you narrow it down by including the LEFT DE addition.

That's pretty slick.

haha I didn't even notice the "LDE" add on there. I thought a "top 10 at his position" meant his position being DE

I would trade him for a solid third cornerback. Glenn doesn't have much longer and we might be moving Reeves to safety.
Same here. I would really like to have a good young 3rd corner.

What's it going to be then, eh?

If they offered Volek for Ellis, we'd be stupid not to take it.

I agree, I like Volek but I don't want to start yet another QB war around here which is why I said I'm not advocating getting him but if an offer like that came about yes I would be for it.

Mathis and Freeney play on the same team, so they can't both be LDEs (Mathis is the LE). You can add Reggie Heyward there though.

Taylor plays the right side also.

I'd rather have an experienced backup for now and Volek would fit the bill. But I am sure if they trade him, it will be to someone he could start for. Besides, I don't think Vince Young is ready to start, nor would Jeff Fisher go at it with no experienced QB around to help him. Young isn't ready to start and if they threw him off the deep end they would be some ugly results.

Call the Broncos...ship Ellis's but outta here and have the Broncos trade Plummer to the Boyz...since everyone thinks Henson or Romo are busts (ala. Krankcase)...

I didn't really follow the McNair saga too closely.

Was there talk about trading him before the draft, or did it look like they drafted Young with the intent that he would sit behind McNair for a couple of years?

The same management team had no problem sitting McNair for a while even though he was a top 3 pick, and I think it was the right thing to do. I think it is with Young as well, but it would be interesing to see if they planned on handling him differently.
