I'd take the second and not give up any picks.

Yeah true.

You wouldnt give Marty B and a 4th for their 21st though?

Basically MartyB and a 4th for Earl Thomas

you gotta believe Dallas would just take another TE in the 2nd if they trade Bennett.
I don't see us taking another one in 2nd, later in the draft is a possibility.

Not sure if the Bengals would take that (although we are talking about the Bengals, the team who signed Antonio Bryant to a long-term deal). I'd be curious to see if they would accept Bennett and our 3rd for their 21st pick.

Why would we trade 2 picks in the 20s for McClain? If anything, then I'd be willing to trade up to ensure we got both these guys

Because McClain is the reincarnation on Jesus.

Watch college football once in awhile.

phillips didn't even play tight end most of the time.

Why do people think we know anything about him in the position Bennett plays?

we have very little to compare the two that isn't apples to oranges.

Both blocked.

Pretty much all either of them did.

Did you see us taking Fasano and Bennett in the 2nd?

I sure as heck didn't.

Welllllll I'd still want to sign Sharper since Earl could get a year to get comfortable. Plus Wade doesn't start rookies.

I said earlier in one of my posts that hindsight is 20/20. I remember very clearly that alot of forum members did not want to get rid of Marty B and nobody knew what Phillips was capable of.


Here's maybe a logical decision as to why we didn't make the deal:

We have to have at least 2 healthy TEs to run the "21" formation that we saw this year. If we trade Bennett that leaves us with two TEs and no backup if an injury occurs. Also at the time we didn't know what we had in Phillips. Marty B was a very crucial element in the running game of the 21 formation and he also did very vell in pass blocking allowing Witten to get open to move the chains.

Don't you guys think if we got rid of Marty B early in the season we wouldn't have beat the eagles 3 times and won one-playoff game? The guy helped this team in alot of ways and gets poorly recognized...

Bennett no

Fasano didn't shock me since he was a Parcells pick

He's a marginal blocker and a clown.

Seeya Marty.

He did help the team in the running game, no doubt. But if it wasn't for the emergence of Miles Austin, Bennett's lack of production in the passing game for WHATEVER reason, could have hurt us last year, because we had nobody proven behind Witten.
