Jared Allen is available for a 3rd

[ftghb]

so so not worth it. jared allen is owed 14.2 million this year. Edge rushers are the most overrated, overpaid position in today's league. Add to the fact monte kiffin's tampa 2 doesn't need edge rushers as much as they need a penetrating 3 technique. A couple weeks ago, i said 5th rounder for MJD, that was worth it, a 3rd round pick carries much higher value than a guy who we probably won't (and shouldn't) resign after the season. If this team was an edge rusher away from a super bowl, maybe? But the cowboys have so many more holes to fill.

If he was willing for a cap friendly deal yes, but he won't be.

I vote yes. Cowboys would just use that 3rd round pick for another TE anyway.

the sad thing is we actually need a TE . One who can stretch the defense .

Trade for Jordan Cameron. Browns were reputed to have everyone on trade block last month and Cameron already playing in Norvs system so same terminology that Cowboys currently using. Great fit.

 

[CowboysFaninHouston]

would you do it ? if he was willing to structure a cap friendly contract ?

no, no no no no no nono no

Jerry should be locked away until the trade deadline passes.

 

[Sarge]

Can't afford him - non-issue.

But you forget that that TE would allow us to run our 2 TE set effectively and we would be unstoppable

I still remember when we drafted Dez and there were multiple posts about.... How will any defense stop this offense with witten, Austin and Dez? Well, Garrett took care of that

Then we signed Carr and drafted Mo and there posts about the no fly zone.... Well...grandpa kiffin took care of that

Ahhhh..... Memories

 

[Redball Express]

I would certainly think about it. We brought in a guy back in the '90's named Charles Haley who helped a bit.

My question would be why are they dumping him..?

That's like us dumping Ware.

I realize his cap hit is there..

but you can probably redo that deal going forward.

What has changed in Minnie that he's leaving..?

Adam Schefter ‏@AdamSchefter16m
Seattle making 11th-hour push to trade for Vikings Pro-Bowl DE Jared Allen, per multiple sources. Vikings also talking to second team.

Adam Schefter ‏@AdamSchefter29s
And @Mortreport says the Vikings are asking a second-round pick for Jared Allen but would consider a conditional third-round pick.

 

[cowboys1981]

Who is the second team? I wonder

 

[Hook'em#11]

Oh yay!!! The missing piece.. Another over 30 yr old player that would take away snaps from a younger , developing player that could give Dallas more than a couple of years of playing. If that..

pass.. Next.

 

[crashintonickdm]

Watch it be dallas.

Actually we could use another TE cause Hanna has been, well nothing. At least Escobar has the ability to catch anything, all Hanna has shown he can do is run fast.

Hard to run the 12 when Escobar isn't ready yet and Hanna is nothing. Next draft should be interesting as once again we could draft any position and have merit behind the pick cause we need help everywhere.

You mean younger, developing players like Everette Brown, Jason Vega and Caesar Rayford? We also have Ware who is breaking down and Spencer who has a degenerative knee condition. I've never seen us so depleted at DL.

Yeah I don't see how anyone can ignore whats going on with our DL and defense in general. Our DL and safeties get abused every time they are on the field, yet some think its not a need for some reason.

Some must think this is arena football or something, our D is an embarrassment right now and most don't care, just want to score more points and talk about Dez.....who cares about that.

Its disgusting really.

 

[Doomsay]

Can we borrow him this week?
