Jonathan Cooper?

[NorthwestDallas40]

Currently a backup G for SF. I wonder if SF would take a 7th or 6th to send him back to us. He has position flex at G/C and knows our system.

Id be open to it. Id rather trade excess players if that deal is swingable. But I would be willing to bring him back for a late rounder

 

[Idgit]

Not for a pick, but for a comparable player like Ealy maybe.

Agreed.

I'm still not sure we won out in that Switzer vs Ward trade, but at least it was a player for player rather than a draft pick.

Why would San Fran, or any team, deplete their own OL depth for a late round pick two weeks before the season?

 

[DiResta]

they will likely trade for someone if they can't get a guy off waivers
they do every year if I'm not mistaken
just let these 2 games play out

 

[Idgit]

Agreed.

We didn’t. But the combined Switzer-Ward-Tavon-draft pick trade worked out ok.

 

[CWR]

Agreed.

Last I heard he was behind Griff Whalen battling to make a dent on the roster. Time will tell though.

Might take much more than Ealy. Isn't Jonathan Cooper a starter? If so, it would take at least 2 players (Ealy and probably someone like Datone Jones), plus a mid-to-late round pick to trade for Cooper since he's a starter and was a 1st round draft pick (which he finally proved somewhat last year while with the Cowboys). The 49ers aren't just going to give him away, especially since they now know we are desperate.

I haven’t followed, but OP said he was a backup in SF.

You and the OP are correct. He is a backup. I thought he was a starter? I was wrong.

In that case, possibly a player like Ealy or Datone Jones, plus a late round pick might do. I still say the 49ers will not simply let him go without milking us.

 

[waving monkey]

Agreed.

it appears we didn't swap evenly to me

Cowboys lost in that trade BIG TIME.

Yup Whalen is outplaying him. Whalen is also running with the first team.

 

[darthseinfeld]

Wouldn't shock me if Switzer gets cut

 

[Jipper]

We didn’t. But the combined Switzer-Ward-Tavon-draft pick trade worked out ok.

Way too early to say that we didn't win, they haven't even gotten to final rosters or played a game yet... so much rush to judgment

 

[Cowboys22]

There will be veteran OL comparable to Cooper released in a few weeks. They will add another OL and safety within 24 hours of final cut downs.

 

[ClappingCarrot]

We should have never let Cooper go in the first place. Even if we did plan on drafting a guard all along, having him available, especially in times like right now, would make me feel better about the season opener.

 

[Sydla]

Look at cuts first, but yes, if we get closer to the season, a 6th or 7th rounder for Cooper would be a shrewd move.

Good idea
