Mike Fisher: Cowboys actively making calls and taking calls for trade

“And now on Wednesday morning comes word from our Mike Fisher, via multiple sources, that Dallas is actively :taking - and making - trade-down phone calls ahead of the NFL Draft … early laying groundwork.''

Wow, wonder if this will make some fans happy they are "making" calls.


Can't wait to see how that gets spun.
Maybe they are making calls, because a team left a message. So not them actually making a call, just returning one.
A lot in play here.

But it is from Fisher.
Wonder if Pickens name is involved. Would love to have him opposite CeeDee. But I read several posts the past few days, that he is a knucklehead. If so, how big of a knucklehead is he?

We can only hope this happens.

Yes! Please trade down. I know drafting for "need" is a bad idea most of the time, but this roster has way too many holes to fill.

They aren't getting a quality WR, RB, OL, CB, DT, and LB with just three of the first 148 picks and no 4th rounder.

Deuce Vaughn for TJ Watt and a 2nd.

Pickens is talented, but a bit of a head case. Throws tantrums when he's not getting the ball. Starts fights on the field with corners that know they can get in their head (we saw Jourdan Lewis get to him last season). When he's not involved in the play he will jog half-speed down the field. And most of the time he doesn't even bother to block.

But if coaches and teammates can get through to him, wow. You are talking a 6'4 receiver with deep speed that can make highlight reel catches look routine. So much ability wrapped in such an immature package.

Does anyone think that the Jones' and co. are actively being proactive to get something done? Or just you know letting it go and flying by the seat of their pants, like usual?

He is a supreme knucklehead and I wanted us to draft him when he came out. I would stay away.

People always say drafting for need is a bad idea, but is it really?

 

[Havic]

If we trade ferg, I’d worry te will be our 1st round pick

 

[Bigdog]

The liquor store clerk is going to very active today, lol.

 

[Kolemmitt]

This could be true. It could not be true. What I do know, is that Fisch knows nothing and he is guessing.

Only if you reach to fill that need. In other words, let's say the Cowboys really need a RB, so they take one over a player at another position that they have rated higher. Teams usually do their best to go BPA- best player available- instead.

I

I dread the idea of Jerry "making calls" to competent, shrewd, non-senile GMs.

Please someone cut the phone lines and hide his cell.

Jerry's going to get bamboozled again. STAY WHERE YOU ARE AND USE A FREE ONLINE MOCK DRAFT SIMULATOR TO MAKE YOUR PICKS. We'll be so much better off if he did this

He has very little trade value maybe a 6th. Basically a move to create a void to justify Warren or Loveland.

 

[jazzcat22]

I wanted us to draft Pickens as well.
The again I wanted us to draft Mingo.

Shows what I know or don’t know.

I agree with you bro. And I dont think a first time ever head coach should have to deal with this headache. Talented as he may be.

Don’t give up on Mingo yet. He’s been coupled with subpar QBs (Cooper Rush and Bryce Young) during his his brief time in the NFL.

Sweet we will get another late 1st rounder who takes 4 years to resemble a starter and a Jerry Jones project instead of bpa
