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

[rambo2]

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.

Saints are a good spot for Dart.

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."

Wow all of that, to try to prove some point, which there is nothing to prove.

And making things up on top of it as well. Then the insults.
Go away with your incoherent incompetence and babble, since that is what you are calling mine.

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

He will be in preseason.

My biggest wish in life:
Mickey Spagnola, Mike Fisher and Coogiguy03 (aka Bayless) all get deported to CECOT El Salvador.

 

[shabazz]

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'll just wait and see IF it plays out at all. I like roster transactions but not if we're getting another aging player that's past his prime.

I really don't care how many holes this team has, I'm sick and tired of 4th/5th & 6th round busts, and I just want 1st, 2nd and 3rd round hits. Just get 3 difference makers and go from there. We need at least 1 franchise changing player, and 2 difference makers and go. I don't care about 4th, and 5th rounders, it's junk anyways most of the time. This is why you have free agency, to fill in the gaps. And if he's too cheap to do that, then we remain trash.

This is a good analysis. It's too bad there isn't a QB needy team at #13- that would make #12 interesting.

I do think folks will be surprised at how high Sanders goes, but who knows.... That will be one of the interesting things about the draft. I'm convinced Sanders will be off the board by #9 (Saints). Giants at #3 would not surprise me at all, nor would the Raiders. Some teams have Dart higher than Sanders too. I think it's very possible that all 3 QB's are gone after the Saints pick at #9. We'll see.....

 

[Mr_437]

I would like to hear Jerry making calls to other teams for trades.

Just

Here to see the ** bashers and their typical wine about he isn't credible

Well, he’s not credible and he is a hack.

 

[Playmaker3128]

if sheduer is there at 12 I would think we can get a team to trade up. Grab an extra first next year at least.

all three gone at 9 would be absolutely the best case scenario for Dallas. Keep us away from taking a 2nd round worthy receiver at 12

All but one of us on here would agree. Not doing so is just moronic and inexcusable. As a GM you are never forced to make a deal just because you are the one who initiated the call but you 100% cannot make a deal that is never discussed

 

[GimmeTheBall!]

Lovable louts, what could possibly go wrong?

 

[America's Cowboy]

“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.''

Sounds like Jerry, Stephen and their front office lurk around here and read what some of us have been demanding for months now about trading down (preferably twice) in the 1st round in order to pick up extra Day 2 picks.

This would be best for the Cowboys. Truly inspires me to see they are trying to pick up as many extra Day 2 picks as possible to fill many holes on this team, especially since there is a lot of good talent in this draft.

 

[gimmesix]

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.

A bit like Philly trading for AJ Brown, except Brown is obviously the better player.

Did they cancel the draft? Detroit does want to trade Williams and the Steelers want to trade Pickens.
