I could live with most of that. Barmore/Tomlinson with gallimore rotating in at DT would be by far the strongest the position has been in years.

If the cowboys intend to move on from Gallup this is the smart move. 1 year of gallop vs 4 cheap rookie years of a 2nd rounder? I’m all for it.

Id be shocked if we have both cooper and Gallup on the roster for 2022.
This is my thinking. Gallup is going to cost atleast 15mil AAV. This would be the best time to get optimal value for him.

It’s what the patriots did really well during their dynasty run. Flip contract year guys for more picks.

Exactly, my wish would be for Belichick to get fired and be brought to Dallas. Him and Jerry are close and Belichick is a fan of Dak.

The Gallup stuff is interesting. At his current pace, it seems unlikely we are going to resign him given the money he likely could get from another team. So does a trade make sense? the flip side is................ does a 2nd round pick mean more to the team than keeping him for another year and then likely getting a 3rd round comp pick from him?

Decisions, decisions..............

I would rather trade or release Cooper after 2021 and try to retain Gallup. JMO.

Either way I would keep him around next year. I'd like to get a full year of the three WR with Jarwin back and a healthy OL with Dak.

That offense, if healthy, is strong enough to get it done. Just a matter of how much help can be brought on that excuse for a defense

I like this move. Dallas needs to get more on the defense side of the ball. Trade Gallup while he has high value and get a MLB to be a leader on the defense. This franchise has miss--in a massive way-- a LEADER like Micheal Irvin. The franchise really has not been the same since Irvin has retired. Ravens had Ray Lewis. The Seahawks had the Legend of Boom and now have Wilson.

Patriots had Brady and another key element to the decade long dominance of the Pats is trading away a player EARLY, while he has upside value to address a BIGGER need. Kept their salary cap lower and youth movement.

I like Gallup but the Cowboys can NOT pay 3 WRs big contracts. Dallas needs defensive help

Gallup for Moses or Bolden is a horrible trade. You lose that 100% of the time. I'm not sure either of those guys is even a top-100 player, regardless of the trade.

You'd also get the equivalent of a third-round pick if you just let him walk.

Cooper is the better player and will probably wind up cheaper. Once his guaranteed is up he will be willing to renegotiate his contract

Why are we still trotting Jaylon out there?
