Yup... exactly this. It's like finding the Fantasy Football owner who has zero clue on value and taking advantage based on them liking a particular team or not understanding value and future projections. Once they are taken advantage of, it's a free for all to try and convince them on another trade. Sadly the one being taken advantage of, still has no idea or clue.
If only we had a FF owner running this thing.

LOL... exactly. They'd have better sense than JJ at this point. This trade would be veto'd in one of those nitpicky leagues for taking advantage haha
Haha yep. Most owners would have declined that without even looking at what they were asking for.

It’s like seeing blood in shark infested waters. Our 82 year old naked emperor is making his draft resources easily available for players who won’t make a difference. It’s fleece time at the Star!

Adding an underachieving WR to a 3-5 team with a coaching staff hanging on by a thread and a locker room that screams “quit” more and more each week…it’s like adding a new passenger to the Titanic a couple of days before it hits the iceberg. This ship is going down and somehow the captain who has hit the same iceberg 28 years in a row thinks he’s going to miss it this time.

If I’m an NFL GM, I would be on the phone right now with Jerry, dangling backup RBs and receivers that have no future with my team but can be dumped while picking up a mid round draft pick that will be in the top ten of each round.

Somewhere the ghost of Al Davis is chuckling. Because he knows his reputation of being crazy at the end of his reign is about to be topped by the oldest GM in NFL history.

Wait….I think I hear a bunch of phones ringing, o_O
The game hasn’t passed Jerry by, he’s always been a football idiot. Now are you stated, we are watching Jerry start to publicly unravel even more. How many fans have finally had enough of Jones Titanic. Thirty years w/o a conf championship appearance looks like a sure thing as Jerry continues to give the fans the finger.

Then you'd be missing out. Just take a look at Washington's team and success. They definitely overpaid for some, but don't see their players quitting on anything. Environment makes a huge difference and why not take advantage of a billionaire who has no clue and is arrogant enough to think knows more than the league.
But you might be able to dump one of your bad players for a 4th rounder.
I understand, but I'm just not very tolerant of quitters. What's to say they won't come to my team and pull the same crap?

I don't see a single ounce of quit in CeeDee. Dak on the other hand........ let's just say the video I saw on TikTok today showed him walking perfectly fine to the locker room after the game.

Yes they should be selling everything they can get decent value.

If I am other teams, I would be trying to raid the Cowboys defense.

Their offense is a wasteland.... after CeeDee, Tyler Smith, and Ferguson, it's pretty much JAG city. Martin is probably retiring in two months, and doesn't look like he's worth a rental. There's not even really any young guys with potential there, it's just barren. I would be willing to give the Cowboys a 1st for Smith and not have to draft my own G, but that's about it.

But on defense, there's some good pieces. Osa would be a fun rental for an aggressive front seven. Parsons looks like a future HOFer and is worth acquiring even at a very high price. Bland is probably worth more to Dan Quinn in Washington than Dallas. Wilson is probably worth more as a box safety in a Quinn defense too.

You never fail to make me laugh/cry Bob. If it wasn't so sad, it would be hysterically funny. Jerry is the "go to" GM to make other teams GMs feel better about their own team. The last thing on Earth this team needed was to lose another mid round draft pick. Especially picking high in each round. Will someone PLEASE put that old man in a nursing home.

Most GMs who are 3-5 with a boatload of injuries to key players recognize it’s time to sell not buy. It’s pretty clear Jerry actually thinks this team still has a shot at doing something. One word: Delusional.
He's just hoping to keep people tuned in. Selling tells people it's over and you might as well stop watching. Well, we all know it's over, but the bar is simply to remain in contention. Which we won't be very shortly. And then he will switch gears to the injury excuse and we'll get 'em next year talk, doubling down on how much he loves everyone.

He is still trying to have the team appear relevant. But all he is doing is showing how delusional and incompetent he is.

Bobby...

You might have undisclosed, highly sensitive data proving otherwise...

But science youtuber Mark Rober debunked the 'blood and sharks' talk as a myth. The guy has like a 30 minute youtube video where he electronically drips blood out of a bag in the ocean near a school of sharks....not a single shark cared about human blood seeping into the water about 10 yards away.

I would almost say two things were debunked.....1) that sharks care about human blood...but possibly even 2) that sharks can even smell it from very far away like you people suggest.

Anyway....based on a 30 minute video around a school of sharks in the ocean...the sharks didnt swim to the bags of human blood that were like 10 yards away.

i agree with everything except the lockerroom screaming quit. that is the only positive thing i've seen (personally) this season. they look to be competing and caring and trying despite the turmoil.

...and your call would not be answered unless you want to give me a #1, a #2 & a #3 in next year's draft for Parsons.

If I had a disappointing player from the 22 or 23 drafts, I’m on the phone. It might be elder abuse but Jerry can be had because he doesn’t event stop to ask, “why are you trying to get rid of him so soon”, he just sees former draft status and thinks a couple rounds lower makes it a steal.

This would be like getting a 3rd for Mazi right now. A steal of a trade for a guy who isn’t looking to be a part of the longterm plans.

Jerry is in full clown mode right now. You better believe there are a bunch of GM's calling after what they just gave up for Mingo.

I posted the same thing in another thread. Jerry is a clown. I'd have him on speed dial. I would sign guys off the street then call jerry and see if I could trade them to the Cowboys for some draft picks.

But Jerry can't control himself. I knew this was coming. He's embarrassed by the Cowboys on the field so he had to do something to pretend we are still contender. Jerry the GM is making moves to fix what's broken. GMs all over the league are scanning their rosters for players they hate and are calling Dallas to see if they can unload them. Tell me this is not an Al Davis move.

I repeat. Jerry is old and losing his mind. It is going to get worse before it gets better.
