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

[DallasEast]

Know what is good about writing an article about an event that may not happen?

Answer: nothing

 

[Thomas82]

I would be very surprised if the Cowboys made a trade tomorrow.

 

[Coogiguy03]

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

Shows what I know or don’t know.

Be nice coogi

 

[Reid1boys]

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.

add to all that, his deal is expiring and hes gonna want a big extension. So if you make a deal to trade for him, you better be prepared to pay him or lose him.


Oh... just to fit in round here. Jerry sucks, stephen is a moron, and dont forget, its been 30 years. Whew... that felt good.

 

[CWR]

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.

I have a hard time believing we can pull off a trade down this year. Time will tell.

I have a hard time believing we can pull off a trade down this year. Time will tell.

Maybe if Sanders falls, or a team is afraid of missing out on Dart. Hopefully a team feels desperate for a QB.

I'll bet both these QB's are going higher than most mocks predict. Sanders top 10 for sure, and no way Dart falls into the second. Some mocks are saying only 1 QB in round one. That's nuts.

 

[BotchedLobotomy]

"We're all in"
"We will be selectively aggressive in FA"
"We're making and taking calls on substantive trades"

Do you see a pattern here?

 

[Jarntt]

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


Can't wait to see how that gets spun.

Jeez dude, you just refuse to admit when you are in the wrong even when proven over and over. Yes it will 100% make everyone happy because everyone else condemned the quote that came directly out of his mouth and the idea that calling first was dumb and correctly stated it was a completely moronic stance. Why would anyone who knew how dumb the statement was be anything but over teh moon thrilled to hear we are reaching out first? That doesn't even make sense. Of course we want the team to call first if they want to make a deal


You however, in your never-ending quest to defend your incoherent, incompetent hero, said the below in a lame attempt to defend the idea and then kept defending it. So try again. I think it's clear who is doing the back tracking. Just stop it already with this stuff:


"Jerry did make the point, that the phone needs to ring, you do not call around asking for a trade, they must call you.
And he is correct. To the dismay of some fans that do not want to understand that."

 

[Pass2Run]

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.

This is true. I knew Bryce Young would be a bust when I saw him play his rookie year. You could just see it.

And, I'm still going to say, Bryce Young is a bust.

As far as trading down,.I doubt we'll be able to trade down because so many teams want to trade down and there's not that many players worth trading up for.

 

[john van brocklin]

This has the feel of the "All In" nonsense we went through.
I will be seriously shocked if we do anything of note.

 

[eromeopolk]

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

I know he disappeared in the playoffs when it counted. That is the same as CeeDee. I would not be giving premium picks for a WR. Austin, and Pearson prove that fact.

 

[Havic]

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

Which I’d only be ok with if we can get Williamson from Detroit to go with it.

 

[rags747]

He

He sure as hell looked like a different player the second half of last year.

 

[rags747]

No Willia

No Williamson on Detroit. I would take Williams but why are they so quick to trade him?

Right

 

[pancakeman]

Deuce Vaughn for TJ Watt and a 2nd.

Too early to give up on Vaughan

 

[rambo2]

Right

He wouldn't know anything of note if it bit him in the ***.

 

[visionary]

Too early to give up on Vaughan

LOL

The Vaughn fan club continues
A guy who is in the NFL only because his father works for an organization that prioritizes PR over SBs

I'll bet both these QB's are going higher than most mocks predict. Sanders top 10 for sure, and no way Dart falls into the second. Some mocks are saying only 1 QB in round one. That's nuts.

There are really only four teams who are desperate to find a QB

Titans - Will draft Ward
Browns - Won’t take Sanders at #2
Giants - Won’t take Sanders at #3
Raiders - Won’t take Sanders at #6

That leaves the Saints (9), Steelers (21) and Rams (26)

Saints are from most indications not interested in Sanders and 9 is way too high for Dart.

Only the Steelers and Rams would need to trade up all the way to 12.

So, someone may take Sanders in the first round, but it’s highly unlikely that #12 is going to be the spot, which means the Cowboys won’t be involved.

If the Cowboys draft two RB, which has been widely rumored, Deuce may not even be on the team.
