DE Robert Quinn Apparently Made His Free Agency Decision Via Coin Flip

April 5, 2020 - Robert Quinn was one of the Cowboys' most high profile free agents this Spring. No, he wasn't Dak Prescott or Amari Cooper star level, but he was the

Let's see Matt Ryan or Foles/Trubisky...

Coin flip seems about right!

This part proves Quinn was intent to leave the Cowboys for more money elsewhere...

"What we do know now, however, is that Robert Quinn couldn’t fully make up his mind either. According to Patrick Finley of The Sun Times, Quinn told Chicago media he “flipped a coin” when deciding whether to join the Bears or Atlanta Falcons."

We shouldn't care for 1 year mercenaries. Good luck and good riddance.

I think he knew he wasn’t getting those type of contracts from anyone. I’m not even sure he thought he’d get that deal from anyone.

He's getting paid. After starting a new career and finally getting paid what I am worth I understand. Wish we had him, glad we don't.

I agree.

So we traded Quinn for Smith at half the cost.

I bet they take a DE in the draft early early like at 2.

First the CB then the DL Don't need a Oieja Board to figure this draft out.

Safety in 3 and C at 4.

TE at 5 and LBer at 6.

The order may move around depending..

but I think that's the draft for us.

Save some cap and shop some more after the draft when some cuts hit the pavement.

Funny, when a player resorts to flippin a coin to make a decision it always comes up chi-ching! And they never exercise the option to defer

Sounds like he’s really in love with football.

Nothing about this is surprising, he was ‘contract hunting’ the whole season and was terrible against the run and screens b/c he would take huge 12 yard stupid looping “moves” to try to get to the QB every play. He played ~650 snaps and had ~11 sacks, other than that this guy was completely and utterly useless & hung the rest of this defense out to dry.

 

[MarcusRock]

Not sure I believe that. If you have a chance to start across from Khalil Mack or ??? in Atlanta, who would you choose?

Indoors in Dec vs playing in outdoors in Chicago.

I love all the hurt feelings Quinn has caused, lulz.

Living in Chicago or Atlanta???

Exactly! Quinn was a nightmare. The only help he offered was when he actually landed a sack. And then he'd do the big loop again and the other team got 20 yards by way of a screen or flat route in his direction on the very next play. He's a selfish bonehead and there is nothing worse in a team sport.

I was saying this to a Bears fan friend of mine and he said it doesn't matter because they just need someone to pressure the QB on the other side of Mack. But I don't think my friend fully understands the defensive collapses he's in for.

Tell your friend the rubber is about ready to meet the road.

Need attention much?

 

[noshame]

You can put a LB out there and cut him loose on the QB with no containment responsibilities and you'll get the same results.


BYE

Coin flip? What an interesting way of sending a message to Bear fans that he is happy to be in town and play for their team.

1. SC High school
2. NC college
3. LA Rams and Miami
4. Dallas

Quinn was a good exercise in a value contract for Dallas and a nice comp pick after a year. We would do well to find similar deals going forward. Much better than the concept of trading a high pick for a huge contract (Cooper, the potential Adams nonsense).
